| - My daughter recently finished her 64-week, $5,950 Invisalign treatment. Unfortunately, she still had small gaps in her upper and lower front teeth, so the orthodontist recommended an additional 32-week Invisalign treatment. After that, she will have to wear a retainer for approximately 12 months. Mind you, my daughter wore braces (from a different orthodontic practice) for 18 months prior to her first Invisalign treatment from Bright Now! Dental. By the time she is done, she will have worn braces, Invisalign, or a retainer for over FOUR consecutive years. We didn't realize this would take so long.
Today, she received many more connection points on her teeth, which we call "buttons". This enables the Invisalign brackets to attach to and move the teeth appropriately. Her teeth don't look bad, but the small gaps make her feel self conscious when she smiles. So she doesn't smile for pictures these days.
Bright Now has been very good about fixing the issue, even waiving any fees for additional brackets, thankfully. We're looking forward to a positive end result.
My son goes here for general dentistry and he is hyper sensitive, so he is difficult for the staff to deal with. He is deathly afraid of dental hygienists and dentists, but the Bright Now! Dental staff go out of their way to be nice to him and to gently coerce him into the treatments.
