If you’ve been thinking about straightening your teeth without metal brackets and wires, our Dallas location on the corner of Frankford and Preston Road makes it easy to find out what’s possible. At Thrive Dental & Orthodontics, we offer Invisalign clear aligner treatment for teens and adults with free consultations, flexible financing options including Cherry, and a patient experience that stands out from most orthodontic offices in Dallas.
We use a Medit intraoral scanner — one of the most advanced digital scanning systems available — so there are never any goopy impressions. Our lobby features beautiful chandeliers and complimentary coffee, tea, and water. Every treatment room has two TVs for Netflix, earphones for your listening comfort, and a warm towel after every procedure. And we take digital panoramic X-rays and photos that we show directly on the TVs so you can see exactly what we see and understand your treatment clearly.

We use the Medit intraoral scanner at our Dallas office — a professional-grade 3D scanning system that captures a precise digital model of your teeth in minutes. No trays, no putty, no gagging, no mess. The digital scan feeds directly into your Invisalign treatment plan with exceptional accuracy, and we can generate a simulation of your projected smile progression so you see what the end result looks like before your first aligner arrives.
The Medit scanner is also used at our Dallas location for crowns, bridges, and dentures — the same precision technology across every treatment that requires a model of your teeth. Patients who have had bad experiences with traditional impressions at other offices are consistently relieved to learn this step no longer exists at Thrive Dallas.
Our Dallas office takes digital panoramic X-rays and high-quality intraoral photos using advanced digital imaging. What makes our approach different is that we display those images directly on the TVs in your treatment room and walk you through what we’re seeing in real time. You’re not just told what’s happening with your teeth — you’re shown.
For Invisalign consultations specifically, this means you see your current alignment, understand why treatment is recommended, and can ask specific questions about your own images rather than looking at generic diagrams. For most patients, seeing their own X-rays on screen is the moment the treatment plan stops being abstract and starts making complete sense.
Every operatory at our Dallas office has two TVs — one above the chair and one at eye level — with Netflix available throughout your appointment. Earphones are provided in every room so you can fully immerse in what you’re watching without any background noise. And after every procedure, we bring you a warm towel.
These details reflect an intentional commitment to patient experience that goes beyond what most dental offices offer. Orthodontic treatment involves appointments over many months — the quality of each individual visit adds up significantly over the course of treatment.
Our Dallas lobby features beautiful chandeliers and a warm, upscale atmosphere — a genuine departure from the sterile, clinical environments most patients associate with dental offices. Complimentary coffee, tea, and water are available while you wait. Nothing about our Preston Road waiting area feels like a typical orthodontic office.
We accept 18+ PPO dental insurance plans at our Dallas location and maximize your benefits at every appointment. Our team verifies your coverage, explains what your plan contributes toward Invisalign treatment, and tracks your remaining benefits so you’re never leaving value on the table. Many patients have orthodontic benefits included in their plan that apply equally to Invisalign and traditional braces — we make sure you understand and use everything available to you.
For patients who need flexible payment options, we offer both in-house financing and Cherry — a patient financing platform that provides low monthly payment plans with quick approval. Cherry is designed specifically for healthcare costs and offers a range of payment terms. Ask our Dallas team about current options at your free consultation. Improving your smile shouldn’t require paying for it all at once.
Your first Invisalign appointment at our Dallas office is completely free. Our orthodontic team evaluates your teeth and bite, walks you through your options, and gives you a clear picture of timeline and cost — including what your insurance covers — before you make any decisions. No obligation and no pressure.
A growing share of our Dallas Invisalign patients are adults — professionals who want to straighten their smile discreetly, patients correcting relapse after previous orthodontic treatment, and adults who never received orthodontic care as teenagers.
Invisalign fits naturally into adult professional and social life. The aligners are virtually invisible in professional settings. You eat normally, brush normally, and attend check-in appointments every six to eight weeks rather than monthly adjustments. Our Dallas office offers scheduling flexibility and same-day appointments when available — fitting treatment around a busy Dallas schedule is manageable.
Many adult Invisalign patients at our Dallas office combine treatment with cosmetic dentistry — whitening, veneers, or bonding — after Invisalign is complete for a comprehensive smile transformation.
Invisalign uses a series of custom-made clear plastic aligners changed every one to two weeks to gradually shift your teeth into proper alignment. You remove them to eat, drink anything other than water, brush, and floss — and wear them 20–22 hours per day otherwise.
Invisalign works effectively for mild to moderate crowding, spacing, overbites, underbites, crossbites, and open bites. For more complex bite corrections, traditional braces may give our orthodontic team more precise control over specific tooth movements. Our Dallas team gives you a direct, honest recommendation at your consultation rather than defaulting to whichever option is most requested.

Braces tend to be the better choice when:
Invisalign Teen is specifically designed for younger patients — with compliance indicators built into each aligner so parents and our team can verify consistent wear, and replacement aligners included for lost or damaged trays.
For motivated teenagers who want a discreet treatment experience, Invisalign Teen is an excellent option that fits naturally around school, sports, and social activities. For teens where compliance is less reliable, braces often deliver more predictable results because they work continuously regardless of whether the patient remembers to put them back in. Our Dallas orthodontic team makes an honest recommendation at the consultation based on your teenager specifically.
Our orthodontic team evaluates your teeth and bite, reviews digital X-rays shown on your treatment room TV, and presents your options with a realistic timeline and complete cost breakdown. No commitment, no obligation.
Once you decide to proceed, the Medit digital scanner captures a precise model of your teeth in minutes — no impressions. A complete digital treatment plan maps your tooth movement from start to finish and we generate a smile simulation so you see your projected result before your first aligner arrives.
Your first set of aligners is delivered and our team walks you through insertion, removal, and care. Some patients need small tooth-colored attachments on specific teeth to guide more complex movements — not everyone requires them, but they’re common in certain cases.
Every six to eight weeks you come in for a check-in — typically 20–30 minutes. Our team confirms your teeth are tracking properly and makes any clinical adjustments needed. Netflix on the TVs and earphones in the room make the time pass easily.
After your final aligner, minor refinements may be needed to fine-tune the result. Retainers are then essential for protecting results long-term — worn nightly on an ongoing basis. Teeth shift naturally over time without retainer wear. We include retainers with all orthodontic treatment and guide you through the wear schedule before you complete treatment.
Invisalign cost at our Dallas office depends on case complexity and treatment length. Many dental insurance plans with orthodontic coverage apply the same lifetime maximum to Invisalign as to traditional braces — a meaningful contribution toward treatment cost.
Our team verifies your specific benefits before your consultation so you know exactly what your plan contributes before making any decisions. For patients without orthodontic insurance coverage, we offer Cherry financing with flexible monthly payment plans and in-house payment options. Our Healthy Smiles Discount Plan provides discounted rates on orthodontic treatment for $89/year — $49/year for each additional family member. Visit our insurance page for the complete carrier list.
One of the advantages of choosing our Dallas location for Invisalign is having your entire family’s dental needs available in the same office. Our Dallas team includes an orthodontist, dentist, and hygienist — so general dental care, orthodontic treatment, and hygiene appointments happen at the same location without coordinating between multiple offices.
General dentistry, cosmetic dentistry, emergency dental care, and orthodontics are all available at our Preston Road office. For families looking for a single dental home in Dallas, this is a significant practical advantage.

Treatment time depends on your case complexity. Mild cases may complete in 6–12 months. Most moderate cases take 12–18 months. More complex situations may take longer. Our orthodontic team gives you a personalized timeline at your free consultation based on what your teeth actually need.
Most patients experience mild pressure for a day or two when switching to a new set of aligners — significantly more comfortable than wire adjustments with traditional braces. No brackets means no soft tissue irritation. Acetaminophen helps if needed during the first few days of a new tray.
Yes — our Dallas office uses the Medit intraoral scanner for all Invisalign records as well as for crowns, bridges, and dentures. No trays, no putty, no gagging. The scan takes minutes and is more accurate than any physical impression.
Yes. Relapse after previous orthodontic treatment is very common and usually results from inconsistent retainer wear. As long as your teeth and gums are healthy, retreatment is very manageable. Our team assesses your current alignment at your free consultation.
We offer in-house payment plans and Cherry financing — a patient financing platform with flexible monthly payment terms and quick approval. Ask our Dallas team at your consultation for current options. Many patients also have orthodontic benefits through their PPO dental insurance that contribute meaningfully toward Invisalign treatment.
