One of the most beneficial aspects of Invisalign is the Invisalign Virtual Care Workflow, which can help providers save money and time when treating Invisalign clients. However, many providers are unaware of this helpful resource.

Let’s discuss how to use the Invisalign Virtual Care Workflow, how it can improve your workflow as a provider, and how it can even help you make more money as a provider of Invisalign aligner treatments.


There can be a high lab fee for Invisalign, but the Virtual Care Workflow can reduce the chair time you need to spend with patients. Patients that a virtual care experience will work for include those that are tech-savvy and willing to undergo their treatment in this way. You may also consider raising prices on in-person appointments or lowering prices on virtual care to incentivize using the Invisalign virtual plan.

Invisalign Virtual Care is a great tool for keeping everything in one place regarding patient care. It works as an app to streamline the interactions between patient and provider. The patient signs up just as you will. The patient then will download an app, and they will take photos of their progress and upload them to the app, typically weekly.

Providers get updates once a week for their patient’s care, which allows them to check in on the status of the aligners without having the patient come into the office. You can then comment on the photos according to the next step. If you would like to see the patient in person to discuss a concern you see in the images, you can do so, or you can sign off on the next set of aligners.

If you aren’t a fan of switching to virtual care, at the very least, the virtual care options from Invisalign are a great resource for patients who might be traveling or are otherwise unable to come in for a visit.
