Hi Guys! I've always been self-conscious of my teeth and I want to get them straightened on a budget. I just had a consultation for Invisalign; I was told it would cost $5000 CAD and take about 15 months.
I've heard success stories about people straightening their teeth on their own, using dental imagery and 3d printing for the trays. I don't have any orthodontist friends to help me with the imaging but i do have a friend who owns a 3d printer.
I was wondering if there was anyone on this subreddit with some bright ideas on how to reduce the cost. Is there anyone here who's actually straightened their teeth on their own? Or who's had success in lowering costs by handling some parts of the process on their own? If so I'd like to hear from you. Any advice or info would be greatly appreciated.
Happy savings Y'all!
