Is Invisalign Really Worth It?

Are you wondering if Invisalign is really worth it?

 

The short answer: yes, for 9 out of 10 patients.

 

But before you decide, let me explain why this treatment has been revolutionizing orthodontics for 25 years. And most importantly, in which cases it won’t be right for you.

 

At HymySmile, we’ve treated over 1000 patients with Invisalign. Our Diamond Provider status gives us a complete view of what works… and what doesn’t.

5 reasons that make Invisalign irresistible

In 2025, straightening teeth without braces is no longer a dream. It’s a clinical reality.

 

But beware of false promises. Not all solutions are equal.

Invisible even up close

Invisalign aligners are virtually invisible. Even at 50 cm, they’re hard to spot. Perfect if you work with clients or if you’re a teen scared of braces.

No more bloody lips

No more wires cutting your cheeks. No more brackets catching on everything. The aligners are smooth, with no sharp edges. Your lips will thank you.

Eat EVERYTHING you want

Craving an apple? Corn on the cob? Popcorn? You remove your aligners and eat whatever you want. With braces, it’s forbidden for 2 years.

Normal brushing (finally!)

Normal brushing morning and night. No food stuck between wires. No surprise cavities at the end of treatment.

See your future smile before you start

Even before beginning, you see your final smile in 3D. No surprises. No guesswork. Every tooth movement is calculated to the millimeter.

The 3 constraints they don't always tell you

22 hours/day NON-NEGOTIABLE

This is THE golden rule. 22h minimum, or your teeth won’t move. The remaining 2h: meals and brushing only.

Yes, it's more expensive (but here's why)

Invisalign costs 20 to 30% more than traditional braces. But at HymySmile, financing available from 400₪/month. For some, this investment changes their professional and social life.

Not magic for ALL cases

5% of cases still require traditional braces. Orthognathic surgery, extreme rotations… our free 3D diagnosis will tell you.

The real questions you're asking yourself

Is Invisalign REALLY as effective as braces?

Yes, absolutely. Clinical studies have proven it for 20 years. Our Diamond Provider status allows us to treat even complex cases with Invisalign.

Is it REALLY worth it despite the price?

It depends on your priority. If aesthetics and comfort matter to you, yes. If only price matters, braces remain cheaper.

Does Invisalign still work after 30?

Perfectly. 40% of our Diamond patients are over 30. Your teeth move at any age. Proof in 3D during your free consultation.

Do the results last for LIFE?

Yes, with retention. Like any orthodontic treatment, retention keeps your teeth in place. Included in your treatment at HymySmile.

How long with these "things" in your mouth?

Between 12 and 24 months on average. Your specific case? Our 3D scanner gives you the exact answer in 30 minutes.

The HONEST opinion from our Diamond Provider experts

After 1000+ cases treated, here’s our conclusion

 

Invisalign is worth it if you’re looking for:

  • Absolute discretion (work, social life)
  • Daily comfort
  • Food freedom
  • Easy hygiene
  • Predictable 3D results

 

Braces are still recommended if:

  • Price is your #1 criterion
  • Your case requires surgery
  • You’re not rigorous about wearing them 22h/day

VERDICT: Is Invisalign really worth it?

For 90% of cases: YES.

 

Invisalign transforms the orthodontic experience. No more complexes, pain, or dietary restrictions.

 

The financial investment is justified by the impact on your daily life, confidence, and social life.

 

But only one person can tell you if Invisalign is right for YOUR case: an expert orthodontist.

 

At HymySmile, our consultation and 3D diagnosis are free. In 30 minutes, you’ll know if Invisalign can transform your smile.
