Invisalign Product Tiers
Invisalign Comprehensive is the flagship package for anything beyond mild: it covers complex movement and bundles the refinement trays needed to land the final position.
Invisalign Lite is the shorter, lower-cost option for mild crowding or spacing, capped at a set tray count and without the open-ended refinements of Comprehensive.
Invisalign Go offers a simplified workflow for mild anterior cases through trained GDPs — appropriate for cosmetic front-tooth tweaks, not complex treatment.
Invisalign Teen adds compliance-indicator dots that fade with wear, free replacement trays for lost aligners, and extra allowance for teeth still erupting.
Invisalign Provider Tiers in Shaggs
Align Technology grades certified providers by annual case volume — Provider, Preferred, Elite and Diamond. Higher tiers have treated more cases and tend to be more comfortable with complex situations, so asking a Shaggs provider about their tier is a useful starting point.
All certified providers complete Invisalign training before prescribing, but specialist orthodontists — with three years of postgraduate training beyond dental school — have the broadest grounding in tooth movement regardless of tier.
