Common Questions

    Invisalign® treatments are managed by a dental professional with in-office visits, while Smile Direct Club primarily offers remote treatment with occasional virtual check-ins.

  • How do the results of Invisalign® differ from those of traditional braces and clear aligner companies like Smile Direct Club and Candid Co?

    While all methods aim to straighten teeth, Invisalign and traditional braces are often considered more effective for complex dental issues, with Invisalign offering a more discreet appearance compared to braces. Smile Direct Club and Candid Co may be suitable for less severe adjustments.

  • Are there any differences in the types of dental issues Invisalign® and Candid Co can address?

    Both Invisalign and Candid Co treat a range of dental misalignments, but Invisalign may be preferred for more complex cases due to the direct supervision of a dentist.
