- Meet with an Orthodontic Specialist
It is important to meet with an Orthodontic Specialist to see if you are a good candidate for Clear Aligners. At Happier Smiles Orthodontics, we offer Complimentary Consultations so you can find out if Clear Aligners are right for you.
- Get your 3D Digital Scan
Goopy molds and impressions are a thing of the past! Once your Orthodontist has determined that you are a good candidate for Aligners, the next step is to get your 3D Digital Scan. This scan of your teeth is far more accurate and comfortable than the goopy molds used in the past. The 3D Scan can also be sent digitally meaning that your Aligners can be delivered sooner.
- Digital Aligner Design
Once your 3D Scan has been sent to the aligner company like Spark, they will send back a treatment plan of the Aligners to your Orthodontist. This is where your Orthodontist does most of the work designing all the intricate tooth movements that will be engineered into your custom Aligners.
- Aligner Delivery Day
The day has finally come and your Aligners have been delivered. Your Orthodontist will add those little tooth anchor points (also called attachments) and give you your first set of Aligners. You will then change your Aligners each week or as directed by your Orthodontist. We will review ALL the instructions needed to make your treatment a success!
Please don’t hesitate to contact us if you have any questions either via text through our website or by emailing contact@happiersmilesortho.com.
Sincerely,
Dr. Neelab
