State-of-the-art advances in dental science and technology are now available to you with Invisalign. When you see what's involved, you'll know why Invisalign is a great step forward in straightening teeth.
1. An Invisalign Certified Orthodontist or Dentist evaluates and creates
a program of treatment. Photos and impressions of your teeth are taken.
|
2. A CT scan
(Computed Tomography or CAT scan), is made from your dental impressions. The
CT scan produces an extremely accurate, 3-dimensional digital model of your
teeth. |
3. CAD (Computer
Aided Design) software is then used to simulate the movement of your teeth
during treatment. |
4. Your doctor
reviews, modifies, and approves the treatment plan before the aligners are
created. |
5. Invisalign then
uses advanced stereolithography (SLA) technology to build precise molds of
your teeth at each stage of your treatment. |
6. Individualized,
custom-created clear aligners are made from these models and sent to your
doctor's office. |
