Clear Aligners for Adults
Clear Aligners for Adults in West Palm Beach, Royal Palm Beach, Lantana & Palm Beach Gardens
Discreet, predictable Invisalign and Spark clear aligners for adults — designed and supervised by orthodontist Dr. Richard Donatelli at all four PB Braces offices.
The Most Popular Orthodontic Treatment for Adults Today
Adults make up a fast-growing share of clear aligner patients — and for good reason. Clear aligners deliver virtually invisible treatment, no food restrictions, and far easier daily hygiene than traditional braces. At PB Braces, orthodontist Dr. Richard Donatelli personally designs every adult aligner case to balance discreet appearance, efficient timeline, and strong clinical outcomes.
Adult patients come to PB Braces seeking aligners for many reasons:
Treatment that doesn't show at work, on Zoom calls, or in photos
Pre-wedding or pre-graduation timelines that make appearance especially important
Post-childhood relapse after retainers were lost or stopped years ago
Pre-restorative alignment before veneers, crowns, or implants for a healthier final result
Bite correction for jaw pain, headaches, or uneven enamel wear
Confidence in their smile after years of avoiding photos
The fundamental advantage of clear aligners for adults is simple: they fit a professional life. You can take them out for an important presentation, a client lunch, or a family wedding — then put them right back in. This kind of flexibility is rarely available with brackets and wires.

Invisalign vs. Spark: An Honest Comparison
The two leading clear aligner systems we use at PB Braces — Invisalign and Spark — are both excellent. The right choice depends on your specific case, not on marketing. Dr. Donatelli will give you an honest comparison at your consultation.
Invisalign has the longest clinical track record (more than 20 years and over 16 million patients worldwide), the broadest treatment range, and the most extensive software for predictable outcomes. It's an outstanding choice for the vast majority of cases.
Spark uses a newer TruGEN material that resists staining better than older plastics — a meaningful advantage for adults who drink coffee, tea, red wine, or eat foods that can discolor trays. Spark also features more polished tray edges, which many patients find more comfortable on the gums.
For complex adult cases, Dr. Donatelli sometimes recommends a hybrid approach: a few months of targeted braces first to handle difficult movements, then aligners for the finishing phase. This delivers strong clinical outcomes without long visible treatment times.
Adult Aligner Cost, Insurance & Financing
We believe in absolute transparency about cost. At your free consultation, you'll receive a written, all-inclusive treatment estimate — covering scans, all aligners, all check-in visits, attachments, refinements, and your final retainers. No hidden fees, no add-ons later.
Most adult clear aligner cases at PB Braces fall between $3,500 and $8,000, depending on case complexity and length. To make treatment accessible, we offer:
In-house monthly payment plans, often with $0 down
Insurance benefits coordination (most plans include orthodontic coverage)
FSA/HSA acceptance
Paid-in-full discounts
Family discounts when multiple members are in treatment
Third-party financing for longer terms
