Invisalign® in Beverly, Chicago

What Is Invisalign®?

Invisalign® takes a modern approach to straightening teeth, using a custom-made series of aligners created for you and only you. These aligner trays are made of smooth, comfortable, clear, and virtually invisible plastic that you wear over your teeth. Wearing the aligners gradually shifts your teeth into place, and you'll start a new set of aligners on a regular customized schedule until your treatment is complete.

Unlike metal braces, Invisalign aligners are removable — so you can take your aligners out and eat whatever you want, brush and floss normally, and smile confidently throughout your entire treatment.

Are You a Good Candidate for Invisalign?

Invisalign works for most adults and teens. It can treat a wide range of concerns:

• Crowded teeth — when there isn't enough room in your jaw for all your teeth
• Gapped teeth — spaces between teeth that can trap food and lead to gum issues
• Overbite — when upper front teeth overlap the lower teeth
• Underbite — when lower teeth sit in front of upper teeth when biting down
• Crossbite — when upper and lower jaws don't align side-to-side
• Open bite — when upper and lower teeth don't meet when the mouth is closed

The best way to find out is to book a free video consult with Dr. Rowe. Call 773-366-8718 or book online — no obligation.

For Parents of Teens

• Wear time: teens wear their aligners about 22 hours a day, taking them out only to eat and brush.
• If an aligner is lost: call us. We'll advise whether to move to the next tray or order a replacement.
• Sports: aligners come out for sports, and your teen wears a mouthguard instead.
• No missed school: checkups can be on Saturdays, so your teen doesn't miss class.

Younger children may be better suited to other options. The American Association of Orthodontists (AAO) recommends a child's first orthodontic evaluation around age 7.

How Long Does Invisalign Take?

Most cases take 6–12 months; more complex cases can take up to 18. Dr. Rowe gives you your projected timeline after your scan. You'll have that timeline before you commit to anything.

What to Avoid With Invisalign

How Much Does Invisalign Cost?

Most practices price a full Invisalign case somewhere in the range of $5,000 to $7,500, and many of them quote a figure that turns out to exclude the records appointment, the refinement aligners (extra touch-up trays some cases need at the end), or the retainers you need afterward to hold the result.

Comfort Family Dental prices Invisalign as one all-inclusive fee. There's no second bill later. Pay in full or use one of the payment options below.

After your free video consult

The front desk books your in-office records appointment — the visit where we take the scan, photos and X-rays.

Five ways to pay

Financing is subject to credit approval. Interest rates, terms and total repayment amounts vary by lender and by your approval, and are disclosed to you in writing before you sign anything. Some insurers reimburse the patient directly rather than the practice, which makes option 5 unavailable on those plans — we will tell you which applies to you.

Using dental insurance

Many dental plans include some orthodontic benefit, but not all of them extend it to clear aligners, and some cover orthodontics only up to a certain age. Where a plan does cover Invisalign, reimbursement commonly lands somewhere between $1,000 and $3,000 as a lifetime orthodontic maximum rather than an annual one.

We'll verify your specific benefit before you commit, then file and track your claim. You'll know the number before you decide.

If you don't have insurance

Many patients pay for Invisalign without any orthodontic benefit at all. That's what options 2 through 4 are for. An HSA or FSA card also works, and there is no surcharge on those.

Start with a free video consult

The consultation costs nothing and commits you to nothing. Dr. Rowe will tell you whether you're a candidate and what it would cost — in writing, before you decide. Your exact timeline comes after your scan at the records visit.

Prefer to do it from your phone? The video consultation takes a few minutes — no trip to the office required.
