How Much Do Clear Aligners Cost for Patients in Barnet?

We price clearly with no hidden fees. The total depends on your case. For patients from Barnet, our fixed Invisalign prices are: Invisalign Lite: £3,300 for simple cases with minor crowding or small gaps, usually 6 to 8 months. Invisalign Full: £4,400 for more comprehensive cases with moderate to severe crowding, spacing, or bite issues, typically 12 to 18 months. Your fee covers all appointments, digital scans with our 3D scanner, all aligner sets, and a final set of Vivera retainers worth £500 to protect your smile. We accept private insurance from providers like Max Bupa, Denplan, and Cigna, which may cover part of your treatment.

Your treatment is planned for predictable results. It starts with a 60 minute consultation where we take digital 3D scans to simulate your final result. After you approve the plan, your custom aligners are made, which takes about 3 to 4 weeks. You wear the aligners about 22 hours a day, changing to a new set every 1 to 2 weeks. We schedule check-ups every 6 to 8 weeks to track progress. After the last aligner, you’ll get Vivera retainers to wear at night to keep results long term. The whole process from consultation to retainers typically lasts 6 to 18 months.

To work well, wear aligners for at least 22 hours a day, removing only to eat, drink anything other than water, and brush. After meals, brush before reinserting to reduce plaque buildup and decay. Clean aligners daily with a soft toothbrush and lukewarm water. After active treatment, wear the Vivera retainer every night to prevent shifting and protect your results.

A patient from High Barnet had mild crowding and chose Invisalign Lite. Treatment lasted 7 months and cost £3,300. She travelled to Finchley for check-ups every 8 weeks. Another patient from East Barnet had larger gaps and a slight overbite, requiring Invisalign Full. This took 16 months and cost £4,400. He found the Northern Line to Finchley Central convenient for appointments.

Clear aligners are common but not the only option. Traditional fixed braces can be more effective for complex bite issues and sometimes cheaper, though they are more visible and can complicate cleaning. For purely cosmetic front teeth concerns, composite bonding or porcelain veneers are faster options but do not move teeth and do not address bite or alignment. We will discuss all suitable options for your goals during your consultation.

To make an informed choice, consider these questions whether you consult with us or another Barnet practice: Is the quoted price all inclusive? Does the cost cover the initial consult, 3D scans, and all aligners? Are retainers included or an extra item? What if treatment takes longer than expected, are there extra fees? Do you offer payment plans or accept insurance like Denplan or Cigna?
