The initial consultation is where goals and realities are aligned. During this visit, your clinician performs a thorough oral exam, discusses what you hope to accomplish, and evaluates whether clear aligner therapy is the best option for your dental needs. This clinical assessment sets the foundation for a safe, effective plan.
Digital scanning replaces traditional impressions for many patients—saving time and improving accuracy. These scans create a detailed model of your teeth and bite that supports precision planning and a realistic visualization of expected outcomes. Seeing a preview of the projected result helps patients make informed decisions about their care.
Before any aligners are made, your provider outlines milestones and follow-up expectations so you understand the timeline and clinical checkpoints. This transparency ensures you and your dental team are aligned on objectives and monitoring throughout treatment.
