amanda with straight smile solutions streetsmoundsolutions.com and today we're going
to talk about reveal aligners now reveal aligners are why am i blinking out are they made by three
immunotech i think so um anyways they're kind of a new aligners and i did another um another video
on them so you can check it out more about their dashboard and everything but specifically i wanted
to compare apples to apples here not apples to oranges so remember i've done the breakdown clear
correct unlimited invisalign comprehensive gives you five years of unlimited refinement
now review reveals top product and i don't know what they call it only gives you three years of
unlimited refinements what's the price point well of course it depends on what country you're in but
we all know that invisalign comprehensive without a lab discount for a regular person is upwards
high eighteen hundreds i don't know what is it eighteen seventy eighteen sixty something like
that probably gonna go up again soon um it's due to raise prices um they raised their prices last
january so they usually raise once a year um so that's for invisalign comprehensive clear corrects
unlimited which is a similar product is around 1600 i believe about that around that they also
have their flex product and we we have other videos that explain that and reveal i don't
even know what their price is because they do not even advertise it and everyone seems to be getting
these promos which seems like they're around 1200 for that three-year product unlimited revisions
refinements they possibly have a some lighter versions i don't know how much they are but they
only come with one so it sounds like more like uh what sounds more like invisalign's moderate
or light you know something like that maybe it's more like lightning express but anyways um
similar product to invisalign higher trim line um not scalloped much thicker plastic so it's a
only time i would use it to be really honest is if i got a free case or if i had a patient that
was just demanding it was an easy case really easy case but demanding no attachments then i
would use reveal otherwise i don't really see the point because the more you're gonna spread out
and distribute all different use all different aligner systems the less likely you're going
to get to that it's not that hard to for to get to gold for invisalign that's an eight percent
discount gold plus not that hard either that's an 18 discount every single general dentist should
be able to get to gold no problem if you're doing things correctly i've seen doctors do it all the
time i've seen single doctors get to gold plus and these are general dentists and i've seen
single doctors get to platinum general doctors it's not that hard it really really isn't because
the cases are there you just need to sell them that's it right so anyways i digress so now you
know what reveal is i mean three year window five year window do you really use that extra two years
sometimes you do i mean it really depends on what type of warranty and this is where you
have to take take a look and figure out how does your warranty work with your patients
do you have a warranty is it 30 days is it one year what are you offering them you know and
what's going gonna happen if and when they relapse and a good 20 30 percent of aligner cases really
honestly relapse and they come back you know and for me it's usually like okay we take a look at
the retainers are they wearing them do they fit well did i take a picture with the retainers in
fitting at delivery did i take final records i have to go through everything i had if i clearly
can show that the retainers fit i can document a show a picture of them with retainers on
that the final records were taken everything was straight and now they're not and the aligners
are no the retainers are no longer fitting well that's on them that's not on me you know that's
the patient not being compliant but in my mind if i know i have another couple more years of free
lab fees well then i'm only going to charge them a very minimum price you know maybe it's gonna
be 500 or something like that plus a new set of retainers not four thousand dollars you know am i
gonna make money off it probably not but it's good well especially if it was in the first few months
you know it was two a year um after that maybe a little bit more but you know it's just goodwill
definitely but you know if you have something like reveal where it's cut off after three
years you can't do that so you know and patients are expecting that discount so i mean it might
have costing you out of pocket or you might get a pissed off patient
so that's another reason to think about using invisalign all right anyways thanks so much
