Crowns (tooth caps) are usually not a factor in invisalign treatment. However, sometimes small tooth-coloured composites called “attachments” are bonded onto teeth to help achieve certain movements and are more difficult to bond on crowns than teeth.
In these cases, the location of crowns must be carefully evaluated. An invisalign provider can provide further advice.

The extent of the treatment and the number of aligners required will dictate the cost of the invisalign treatment.
However, in general the fees are between €3500 to €3950. We offer interest free payment plans over the course of the treatment, so the treatment can cost as little as €152 per month (with a €750 initial deposit). Once you have completed treatment, you can claim 20% tax back on submission of a med2 form to revenue. All you final retainers and final tooth whitening are included free in the total cost.
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 and virtually invisible plastic that you wear over your teeth. Wearing the aligners will gradually and gently shift your teeth into place, based on the exact movements your dentist or orthodontist plans out for you. There are no metal brackets to attach and no wires to tighten. You just pop in a new set of aligners approximately every two weeks, until your treatment is complete. You’ll achieve a great smile with little interference in your daily life.
What is invisalign? how does invisalign work? invisalign is an orthodontic system designed to move teeth to the ideal aesthetic position. They are a response from science to the lack of aesthetics and the difficulty of cleaning inherent in traditional braces. Based on impressions or a scan of your teeth a sequence of plastic aligners are constructed which gradually and gently move the teeth into the ideal bite and most visually pleasing alignment. The length of treatment very much depends on the degree of movement required and may vary from twelve weeks to over two years. The vast majority of cases are completed in 6-12 months.

Helen redmond “amazing experience with 3dental. Got invisalign which didn't move one tooth. Needed to get fixed braces but it was seamless. Also had my braces during covid pandemic. Although i could go to the surgery for appointments i received a number of calls making sure my aligned were ok and once back open i was seen immediately. I cannot recommend highly enough. ”lyle andre “outstanding service from start to finish, i recently had my braces removed after 2 years with 3dental and i have never been happier with my results.
