Is Simpli5 more cost effective than clear alighners?
Dear Dr Verma,
Please can you kindly advise if the treatment with Simpli 5 is more cost effective than with Clear Aligners?
I have my first front teeth a bit crowded and was told by a dentist that this is really minimal and would take no time to fix this.
I am trying to find a dentist or orthodontist around the area I live (East Sussex, Brighton) who offers this service and offers the best price.
I was advised by one Practice that for the first course of Aligners I would pay £350 and would wear them for a month,and if further course is needed, the aligners would cost £150 etc. So this is much better regarding costs from the braces.
Please can you let me know where can I find the dentist who does simpli 5?
Many thanks
Regards
Dear Enquirer,
Simpli5 is a fast and simple aligner system which is used to correct minor-to-moderate anterior crowding or spacing. Simpli5 consists of a series of 5 aligners which gently move your teeth to the correct position.
I’m afraid that I couldn’t comment on whether one system is better than another, both systems would require impressions of your teeth to be taken, which are then used to make your aligners. The cost of Simpli5 compared to other invisible brace treatments can be 20% less, however if you are on a “pay as you go” system where you pay for one aligner and then another depending on your tooth movement, this may be more cost effective if you need 1 to 3 aligners or more expensive if you need more than 5 aligners.
We do provide this service at our practice, but to find a practice near yourself, you may have to google for a service provider.
I hope that this helps.
Sunita
