Cost of Invisalign in Honolulu & ʻAiea, HI
In Honolulu, Invisalign® treatment typically costs between $3,500 and $8,000, with most patients investing around $4,000 to $6,000. Your exact cost depends on how much your teeth need to move and how long you wear your aligners. At Dung Orthodontics, in-house no-interest payment plans start as low as $200 a month, and we file with all insurance plans.
A confident, healthy smile is one of the best investments you can make in yourself, and it should never feel out of reach. Since 1987, Dung Orthodontics has helped Oʻahu families straighten their smiles with clear, honest pricing and flexible ways to pay. Below is exactly what shapes the cost of Invisalign, what insurance and financing can do for you, and how our three board-certified orthodontists make treatment affordable across our Honolulu and ʻAiea offices.
How Much Does Invisalign Cost in Honolulu?
For most patients in Honolulu and ʻAiea, Invisalign costs between $3,500 and $8,000. Simple cases that move only a few teeth sit at the lower end, while comprehensive treatment for more complex bite problems reaches the higher end. Industry data places Hawaiʻi’s statewide average for clear aligners near $6,192, slightly above the national average because of our higher cost of living. The only way to know your precise cost is a complimentary consultation, where we scan your teeth and build a treatment plan made for your smile, not an average.
What Determines Your Invisalign Cost
No two smiles are the same, so no two treatment plans cost the same. The biggest factors are:
- How much your teeth need to move. Minor crowding or spacing needs fewer aligners than a full bite correction.
- How long you are in treatment. A six-month touch-up costs less than an 18-month comprehensive case.
- Your treatment goals. Correcting an overbite, underbite, or crossbite involves more planning than closing a small gap.
- How well you wear your aligners. Wearing them 20 to 22 hours a day keeps you on schedule and avoids added costs.
Because Dr. David Dung, Dr. Kaitlyn Tom, and Dr. Lauren Todoki are all board-certified orthodontic specialists, your plan is designed for efficiency from day one, which protects both your results and your investment.
Does Insurance Cover Invisalign?
Often, yes. Many dental insurance plans treat Invisalign the same as traditional braces and contribute toward an orthodontic lifetime maximum, commonly between $1,000 and $3,500. Dung Orthodontics accepts and files all insurance plans on your behalf, so you get the full benefit you are owed without the paperwork. You can also use tax-free HSA or FSA dollars to pay for treatment, which stretches your budget further. At your consultation, we verify your benefits and show you your real out-of-pocket cost before you commit to anything.
Affordable Payment Plans Starting at $200 a Month
Cost should never be the reason you put off a healthier smile. Dung Orthodontics offers in-house, no-interest payment plans with monthly payments as low as $200, spread across your treatment so the cost fits your budget. There are no hidden financing fees, and we will walk you through every option, your insurance benefit, your HSA or FSA, and your monthly payment plan, in plain language at your first visit. For many families, straightening a smile costs about the same each month as a few dinners out.
Is Invisalign Worth the Cost?
Invisalign is an investment in more than appearance. Straight teeth are easier to brush and floss, which lowers your risk of decay and gum disease, and a properly aligned bite reduces uneven wear and jaw strain over a lifetime. Compared with traditional braces, Invisalign offers a nearly invisible, removable, and comfortable experience that fits the way you already live, eat, work, and smile. For most of our Honolulu and ʻAiea patients, the long-term health benefits and the confidence of a smile they are proud of make it well worth it.

How much does Invisalign cost per month?

Why is Invisalign more expensive in Hawaiʻi?
