Choosing Between Two Leading Clear Aligner Brands
If you’re looking for a discreet way to straighten your teeth, you’ve likely come across both Angel Aligners and Invisalign®. These two clear aligner systems are among the most trusted in orthodontics, offering comfort, flexibility, and effective results. But how do you choose the right one? If you’re seeking an orthodontist in Mattituck, Zeifman Orthodontics offers both options and can help you find the best fit for your lifestyle and goals.
What Are Clear Aligners?
Clear aligners are custom-made plastic trays designed to gradually shift your teeth into their ideal position. They’re nearly invisible, removable, and more comfortable than traditional braces. At Zeifman Orthodontics, we offer Angel Aligners, Invisalign®, and other clear aligner options to match every patient’s needs.
Comparing Angel Aligners and Invisalign®
While both systems work in similar ways, there are a few key differences that may influence your decision.
1. Treatment Technology
Both aligners use advanced 3D imaging and treatment planning. At Zeifman Orthodontics, we use the iTero® digital scanner to capture precise digital impressions for better fitting aligners and faster results.
2. Comfort and Material
Angel Aligners are known for their high clarity and stain resistance, while Invisalign® is praised for its SmartTrack® material that offers excellent flexibility and comfort. Some patients may prefer the feel of one over the other.
3. Treatment Speed
Depending on the complexity of your case, Angel Aligners may offer a slightly shorter treatment time due to their dual-material system that switches halfway through treatment. Invisalign® also offers efficient timelines, especially for mild to moderate corrections.
4. Cost and Insurance
The cost for each treatment can vary based on your unique case. We offer transparent estimates and flexible payment plans at Zeifman Orthodontics. Visit our patient info page to learn more about pricing and insurance.
Which One Should You Choose?
There’s no one-size-fits-all answer. It depends on your treatment goals, budget, and comfort preferences. Our team will guide you through both options during your consultation. You can also explore our guide on how to choose the right orthodontist to ensure you’re making a fully informed decision.
