But what should you expect at an Invisalign consultation?
Let’s find out …
What to expect at an Invisalign consultation
Here are four things to look for and expect at a consultation:
1. Digital scan
A digital scan of your mouth and teeth. Not all dental offices have the technology to do a digital scan. How a dental office gathers information on your smile is important for comfort! With the technology of digital scans, you do not have to worry about the discomfort associated with impressions taken with a goopy and rubbery substance that is placed on a tray and then in a patient’s mouth—digital scans equal comfort and ease.
2. Photos
Photos will be taken to help create a before and after of your Invisalign journey if you choose to use a dentist for the treatment.
3. Consult
At the consult, explain what you want for your smile, and pay attention to how the dentist or orthodontist responds and listens to what you are communicating. One question to ask yourself is: How does this dentist make me feel? Invisalign is a process that cannot be completed in a single visit. Finding a dentist that you feel comfortable working with is a great choice.
4. Communication
Expect communication — from what you want to what the dentist can do to help achieve it.
Tips for shopping for Invisalign
If you are in the market for Invisalign and are calling around town for Invisalign, things to consider are:
- Estimates: Estimated quotes for treatments
- Consultation: Consultation with the dentist
- Personal preference: Your preference of who you want to interact with for your oral health and Invisalign treatments.
Discounts
Many dentists offer a discount or promotion from time to time on Invisalign treatments. So, for example:
Ask your dentist if they offer discounts or sales throughout the year for Invisalign to get a better price on your treatments.
