How Does It Work
1) GETTING STARTED
In
your first visit we will evaluate your teeth and talk about any problems or
goals you have for your smile. Once we establish that ClearPath is the right
treatment option for you, we will take impressions, photos, and x-rays of your
teeth that ClearPath uses in manufacturing your custom aligners.
2) YOUR CUSTOM TREATMENT PLAN
We
sends your records — your impressions, photos, and x-rays — to ClearPath with a
prescription for your custom aligners. ClearPath uses your records to create
exact 3D models of your teeth. Then working with us at every step, and
following the precise instructions provided on your prescription, ClearPath
maps out a complete treatment plan of gradual adjustment that takes your teeth
from where they are currently to where you and we want them to end up.
Once
completed, you and we will be able to preview the projected results of your
treatment in your "treatment set-up," a computer representation of
your teeth before and after treatment.
3) YOUR ALIGNERS ARE COMPUTER CRAFTED
When
you and we are satisfied with the projected results shown in your treatment
set-up, the manufacturing process begins. Using the latest digital mapping and
molding technology, ClearPath creates your custom aligners with computer
precision. ClearPath then sends your aligners to us for delivery to you.
4) PROGRESS WEARING YOUR ALIGNERS
You
are advised to wear your aligners all the time, except while eating and
drinking or during daily tooth care, such as brushing and flossing.
Your
ClearPath aligners are so clear they are barely noticeable so they won't have
an impact on your day to day life.
Aligner
by aligner, you'll be able to see the difference as your teeth slowly adjust
and align to your target smile.
You'll
visit your doctor periodically for checkups to see how you're progressing until
you eventually have the great smile you've always wanted.
