Absolutely! Dentists aren’t required to, and some clinics will follow parts of the fee guide but not others. Some costs like lab fees are out of our control and passed directly on to the patient, but we’re happy to provide an upfront quote before treatment.
Crowns usually require 2-3 painful dental visits, weeks apart. With advanced 3D scanning & printing technology you can be in and out with your crown in one visit, sometimes in as little as 2 hours. No more impressions that make you choke and gag and your crown will cost less because there are fewer steps involved.
Invisalign, as a brand, has become a popular alternative to braces. We were planning on offering Invisalign, but decided to go with Suresmile Clear Aligners which are the exact same high quality product but at a lower cost to you. Think brand name versus generic.
