The Lite version of Invisalign is the treatment that applies to people <strong>with fairly mild problems<\/strong>. <a href=\"https:\/\/nutrident.fr\/en\/?page_id=18087\">For more pronounced defects, the Invisalign Full version<\/a> should be chosen.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If your dentist feels that Invisalign Lite is the right treatment for you, he or she will take photos and <a href=\"https:\/\/nutrident.fr\/en\/cleft-palate\/\">impressions of your jaws<\/a>, in order to make the aligners needed for the duration of the procedure. These gutters are transparent and therefore <strong>invisible<\/strong>, except when you are very close to your interlocutor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>You have to wear these trays all the time<\/strong> and the fact that they are removable is convenient and comfortable. You only remove them to eat and brush your teeth, or in exceptional cases, such as when you have an important appointment and do not want your braces to be noticed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Every two weeks, you move on to the next set of gutters. They are designed to follow the evolution of your teeth. Every 6 to 8 weeks, you go to the dentist for a check-up to verify that the evolution is going well.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_to_choose_between_Invisalign_Lite_and_Invisalign_Full\"><\/span>How to choose between Invisalign Lite and Invisalign Full?  <span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The choice between Invisalign Lite and Invisalign Full<strong>is up to your dentist<\/strong>. Invisalign Full is reserved for the most affected teeth. Invisalign Lite is sufficient if you only have minor misalignments.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"alignright size-medium\"><img width=\"300\" height=\"200\" src=\"https:\/\/nutrident.fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/dentiste-invisalign-300x200.jpg\" alt=\"Invisalign dentist  \" class=\"wp-image-14392\" srcset=\"https:\/\/nutrident.fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/dentiste-invisalign-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/nutrident.fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/dentiste-invisalign-768x513.jpg 768w, https:\/\/nutrident.fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/dentiste-invisalign-254x170.jpg 254w, https:\/\/nutrident.fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/dentiste-invisalign.jpg 1000w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><figcaption>Your orthodontist will be able to tell you which treatment is best for you.<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<p>The difference between the two procedures is mainly in the duration of the treatment, which is much shorter for Invisalign Lite. From 6 to 24 months for the former, rarely beyond 6 months for the latter.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In both cases, you benefit from the advantages of Invisalign technology:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul><li>Absolute discretion, thanks to the transparency of the gutters and which has nothing to do with the metal of the rings;<\/li><li>Incomparable comfort for several reasons: you don't have to worry about hurting the inside of your cheeks and lips; you remove them to eat and brush your teeth; aligners are never painful, unlike braces that exert more pressure;<\/li><li>you benefit from better hygiene, whereas braces tend to trap pieces of food that can lead to cavities.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_much_does_Invisalign_Lite_cost\"><\/span>How much does Invisalign Lite cost?  <span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Like all orthodontic treatments, Invisalign Lite is not reimbursed by the social security if you are older than 16 years. However, you should ask your health insurance company if it will reimburse you for part or all of the treatment. Count between 1 500 \u20ac and 2 500 \u20ac.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To find a mutual insurance company that covers invisible orthodontics, don't hesitate to use our free mutual insurance comparison service:  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"What_are_the_alternatives_to_Invisalign_Lite\"><\/span>What are the alternatives to Invisalign Lite?  <span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>If you only suffer from a slight problem of dental malposition, you can definitely use one of the competitors of Invisalign. For example, Dr Smile, a German brand, offers <strong>transparent aligners that work on the same principle as Invisalign<\/strong> from 33\u20ac per month.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you want to know if you are a good candidate for Dr Smile, don't hesitate to make an appointment at one of the brand's offices:  <\/p>\n<div class=\"article-data before-content\"><div class=\"article-data__date\"><div class=\"article-data__date-modified\"><time class=\"published\" datetime=\"2022-11-02T18:03:01+00:00\">This article was originally published on&nbsp;<span class=\"2\">November 2, 2022<\/span>&nbsp;and was most recently updated on&nbsp;<span>November 3, 2022<\/span><\/time><br><\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"user-info\"><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Updated:&nbsp;November 3, 2022 Developed at the end of the 1990s in the United States (California), and arrived in France in 2000, the Invisalign concept has revolutionized the world of orthodontics.
