Receive Premium Care From Our Dentists
Many patients with orthodontic concerns think they need an orthodontist to address them. However, Dr. Vanessa Lee and Dr. Alex Wong offer Invisalign to provide our patients a continuum of care at our Vancouver dental office. If you have mild to moderate dental misalignment, we invite you to explore Invisalign with our dentists.
Paying for Invisalign We Accept Insurance
Your treatment cost will depend on a variety of factors, like the severity of your misalignment and the number of aligners in your personalized treatment plan. During your initial consultation, Dr. Lee or Dr. Wong will have a better idea of what your plan will entail and be able to provide you with a quote.
Though Invisalign is an investment in your smile, it's comparable to the cost of traditional metal braces and can provide you with a beautiful smile that's easier to keep clean. This can prevent concerns like tooth decay in the future.
Fortunately, many insurance plans will contribute to the cost of Invisalign in Vancouver, BC, and we accept most insurances, including the Canadian Dental Care Plan (CDCP). Our staff will work to maximize your benefits and minimize your treatment costs.
Invisalign Can Actually Save You Money
While Invisalign may seem like a large expense at first, it can prevent serious dental problems down the road, and that could mean fewer costly treatments later:
- By straightening your teeth, you reduce the risk of decay, gum disease, and enamel wear, which are three of the biggest culprits behind root canals, crowns, and emergency dental visits.
- With a balanced bite, you're less likely to chip or break a tooth.
- Because Invisalign is removable, you can maintain better hygiene throughout treatment, lowering your risk of additional dental bills.

The Health Benefits of Straighter Teeth It’s More Than Just Cosmetics
Invisalign isn't just about looks. Straightening your teeth can actually improve your health in major ways, and it starts the moment your teeth begin to shift into alignment.
Better Periodontal Health
Crowded or gapped teeth create the perfect trap for food and bacteria, increasing your risk of gum inflammation and periodontal disease. With properly aligned teeth, it’s easier to brush, floss, and keep your gums healthy.
Less Dental Wear and Trauma
Misaligned teeth put excess pressure on certain areas of your bite. That means more chips, cracks, and uneven enamel wear. Straightening your teeth creates a more balanced bite and protects your smile long-term.
TMJ
Prevention
A misaligned bite can strain your jaw joints, leading to TMD symptoms like headaches, popping, and jaw pain. Invisalign helps align your bite, often easing these issues without the need for surgery or oral appliances.
Better alignment isn’t just a cosmetic win; it’s a total health upgrade. And it starts right here in Vancouver.

The Dentist herself had such a warm , friendly and gentle approach.” — Michelle, 5-Star Review
Invisalign Clear Aligners vs. Metal Braces
Our patients often wonder which is better for them: clear aligners or metal braces. When comparing Invisalign to traditional braces, it's obvious that Invisalign has strong advantages, like:
A Nearly Invisible Appearance
Invisalign aligners are made from clear plastic. There are no visible wires or brackets to see when you smile, laugh, or talk. This can make you feel more confident in social situations.
Mealtime Removability
Regular braces are fixed to your teeth, meaning certain foods can damage them. Invisalign aligners are removable, so you can eat and drink whatever you want, whenever you want.
Better Oral Hygiene
Brushing away food that gets stuck in braces can be difficult, which can lead to decay. Since Invisalign uses removable aligners, brushing and flossing are more effective.
Fewer Appointments
Patients with braces have frequent dental appointments with an orthodontist for wire tightening. This can be inconvenient and costly. There is no tightening involved with Invisalign, and you can expect fewer appointments throughout your treatment. Our patients only have to visit us every six weeks.
Improved Comfort
The brackets and wires in metal braces can irritate the soft tissues of your mouth. Invisalign aligners may feel snug at first, but once you get used to them, you may forget they are even on your teeth.
FAQ About Invisalign in Vancouver, BC
Detailed patient education is the cornerstone of our practice. When it comes time for your appointment, our caring dentists encourage you to ask as many questions as you'd like. Until then, we're happy to cover the basics by going through common queries.
How often will I need to visit for checkups?
Generally, you'll return to our welcoming Vancouver office every six weeks for a routine checkup. This allows us to monitor your progress and make any adjustments needed.
Will my teeth stay straight forever?
Once treatment is finished, your smile will remain balanced with the use of a retainer, which should be worn every night indefinitely. In many cases, you can simply continue to wear the final set of aligners in your series as a retainer. If needed, we can also create a custom retainer for you.
How long does Invisalign take?
Your treatment time will vary depending on the complexity of your case, as more advanced misalignment will require more aligners. Full Invisalign treatment at our Vancouver dental office could take 12 months or longer. Very mild misalignment can sometimes be corrected in as little as six months.
Can I combine Invisalign with other cosmetic dentistry procedures?
Yes, if you're a good candidate, you could combine this treatment option with procedures like teeth whitening or veneers. We can also conduct your orthodontic treatment as part of a complete smile makeover.
