Process of an Invisalign© treatment

Consultation

In the first consultation we begin with your medical history and listen to you very carefully: what is your treatment goal, your need, and your challenge? Following our conversation, we see how we can realize your wishes medically. Based on this we recommend a regime and estimate a treatment duration. Of course, we factor in enough time for you to find financial possibilities.

Records

Should you make the choice of an Invisalign® treatment, we schedule your next appointment to create a 3D scan of your teeth. Additionally, we take pictures, a panoramic x-ray and lateral teleradiograph. Together with all this information we create a tailor-made plan.

Clincheck®

Via computer animation we are able to show you the changes in your teeth and how we can improve your smile with Invisalign®. The animation is created in 3D, and we can view your jaw from all angles. If you are satisfied with the planned results, the Clincheck® is approved. Via a highly modern 3D-graphic-process your transparent aligners are created based on your dental impressions.

Wearing period

Approximately two weeks later you receive your first, individually produced transparent aligners. You wear each Invisalign® set for two weeks during the day and night and only remove it to eat and drink as well as during your dental hygiene routine. Treatment takes approximately one year. Within this year you visit our institute on a regular basis (8-12 weeks), so we can monitor progress and take actions based on our New Yorker Technology.

Retention

Congratulations! After you have worn each transparent aligner set your treatment is completed. You now have straight teeth and a beautiful smile. To ensure your teeth remain in position, we begin the retention phase, which takes approximately one year and makes sure that your teeth do not misalign.
