Align Technology announced it is piloting a new U.S. Invisalign treatment promotional program for Costco members on Costco.com.
An Invisalign treatment e-card and Invisalign Essentials Bundle+ are now available for Costco members to purchase on Costco.com for $99.99, which provides a $400 discount on Invisalign treatment with participating Invisalign providers. Costco members who purchase the e-card will receive a kit that includes the Invisalign treatment e-card with a redemption code and an Invisalign Essentials Bundle+ valued at $105.00. The bundle includes an Invisalign Aligner Case, new Invisalign Cleaning Crystals+, Cleaning Foam, Cleaning Spray, Invisalign Aligner Seaters, and an Invisalign travel pouch.
“We are excited to offer this pilot program and connect Costco members and their families with Invisalign-trained dental and orthodontic practices,” said John Morici, Align Technology executive vice president and chief financial officer. “The Invisalign treatment e-card program represents a key priority at Align: to give patients of all ages access to better smiles through Align’s innovations and doctor-directed Invisalign treatment.”
The Invisalign System is prescribed to patients through Invisalign-trained orthodontists or general practitioner dentists. Over 18 million(1) patients worldwide, including more than 5 million(1) teenagers, have been treated with the Invisalign System, the most advanced clear aligner system in the world.(2) Invisalign clear aligners are more comfortable(3) than braces and Invisalign treatment is as effective(4) as braces(5) for a wide range of clinical situations to address simple to complex cases and post-treatment retention. Multiple studies have found that Invisalign treatment completed 5 months faster, on average, than treatment with fixed appliances.(6)
