Dr. Wonnie Rhieu and Dr. Ross Newman - You‍r Invisalign Smile Designers

As long-term dental procedures go, Invisalign will be minimally disruptive to your life. First things first: Sky Dental is conveniently nestled in the heart of the Financial District in lower Manhattan, a quick train or ferry ride from Brooklyn or Jersey City.

We know, you’ve been working from home for 4+ years. You’re not trying to put on pants and go to your dentist once a week. It’s not that bad: Every six to eight weeks, you’ll stop in and visit with us to check on your progress. And! We’ll be cultivating one of Sky’s world-famous doctor-patient relationships together, so you’ll love it. Maybe you’ll even get to feature in an Instagram reel, if fame is your thing.

Perhaps the biggest p-in-the-a of Invisalign is taking the aligner trays out to eat and drink. It’s an extra step, but users get accustomed to that within a few weeks–it becomes autopilot. You’ll also need to stay on top of brushing and flossing, but you’ve been meaning to get better about that anyway, right?

That’s a weird question, but we think it’s worth asking. Invisalign is not braces, brackets, or wires. There is no metal. No eating restrictions or tightening of clamps; no BPA, PBS, or latex. Just a strong, orthodontic-grade material that helps you get your dream smile.

So, no big surprise…we’re not fans. The main issue is you’re going DIY and aren’t likely to save any money for the extra work. They seem cheaper, but there’s a lot that isn’t included, which you’ll need to acquire and pay for separately, such as x-rays. Additionally, dental insurance doesn’t cover the mail-order services. And finally, Invisalign is the only clear aligner system using the patented SmartTrack™ material, invented specifically for fast, effective orthodontic use.

Naturally, your treatment plan is going to dictate cost, but it’s similar to braces. Book a consultation with Gold Plus Invisalign providers at Sky Dental to find out! Most dental insurance plans cover Invisalign with the same parameters as braces. Invisalign is also FSA and HSA eligible, allowing you to protect your teeth money from the tax man. (Can you think of anything worse—paying taxes and then paying for dental work, out of the same money? Ew.) CareCredit, a healthcare credit card, may also be an option for you.

We are Invisalign Gold Plus providers, and that’s kind of a big deal. But from a human perspective—because we bet you’re human—we are your clear choice if you want to feel cared for and collaborated with. We have tons and tons of experience with Invisalign, but that doctor-patient relationship is what makes us stand out from the multitudes. Likewise, we’re looking for patients who want to bring their whole selves to the process and want a dentist who cares about their specific case, their smile, and their overall health. Is that you?
