Smile Center Dentistry plans Invisalign Clear Aligners digitally, so you see a projected before-and-after on screen before ordering your first set of aligners.
These are the four things patients actually ask about before booking Invisalign Clear Aligners, not a generic checklist we copied from another service page.
An intraoral scanner captures your bite in minutes, replacing the old alginate tray most patients dread.
We review the simulation together and adjust the plan before any trays are manufactured.
Small tooth-colored attachments and any interproximal reduction are mapped out from the start, not decided ad hoc.
No per-visit surprise fees — refinement trays are typically included in the original quote.
Here's the range of Invisalign Clear Aligners our Slater team handles most, described the way we'd explain it chairside rather than in marketing language.
Not every case is a good fit for clear aligners — we'll tell you honestly if traditional braces would serve you better. Mild to moderate crowding and spacing are usually excellent aligner candidates.
You'll see your projected tooth movement on-screen, stage by stage, before a single tray is manufactured. This is the step where you get a real sense of how long treatment will realistically take.
Small attachments give aligners extra grip on certain teeth, and IPR creates minimal space where crowding requires it. Attachments are tooth-colored and barely noticeable in normal conversation.
We review proper insertion, removal, and cleaning technique at your fitting appointment. Compliance with wear time is the single biggest factor in staying on schedule.
If movement isn't matching the plan, we catch it here rather than at the very end. Most patients need a check-in every six to eight weeks.
A final refinement round fine-tunes any remaining minor movement before treatment is considered complete. Retainer wear schedules are explained clearly, including the long-term nighttime routine.
No mystery about what happens between calling us and walking out with the problem addressed.
Schedule an intraoral scan and eligibility screening, usually within the same week.
We answer questions and adjust the plan together at this stage.
You'll get one flat-rate price covering the full course of trays before ordering begins.
Regular check-ins confirm your teeth are tracking with the simulation until refinement and retention.
These are unedited, from patients who've actually been through Invisalign Clear Aligners treatment with us in the past year.
“Seeing the simulation before committing made the decision so much easier. I knew roughly what to expect the whole way through.”
“No goop trays for the impression, just a quick scan. Should have looked into this years ago.”
“The refinement trays were already included in my quote, so there was no surprise bill at the end of treatment.”
“My teeth actually tracked ahead of the simulation timeline, and they caught it and adjusted my check-in schedule accordingly.”
“Attachments were barely noticeable, and the whole process felt a lot less intimidating than traditional braces would have.”
Straight answers to what people actually want to know before committing to Invisalign Clear Aligners.
Your ClinCheck simulation gives a projected timeline specific to your case before you commit.
Mild to moderate crowding and spacing are typically excellent candidates; more complex bites may need a longer plan or traditional braces.
Some cases need small tooth-colored attachments for extra grip; your ClinCheck simulation will show exactly which teeth need them.
Wear time compliance is the biggest factor in staying on the simulation's projected schedule.
We catch tracking issues at progress check-ins and adjust the plan before it compounds into a bigger delay.
The full course, including refinement trays, is typically quoted as one flat-rate price before you start.
If you're unsure whether your part of Slater is covered, a quick call settles it faster than searching online.
We coordinate Invisalign Clear Aligners treatment for Slater patients from the first scan through final retainer fitting. Virtual check-ins are available for patients outside our immediate area who still want to be treated here.
