What To Expect At Your First Invisalign Consultation


Most people who have crooked teeth are always self-conscious about the way their teeth look when they smile or talk to people, and this affects their self-confidence. Straightening the teeth always boost their self-confidence.

When you find an Invisalign provider in London to guide you on your Invisalign straightening journey, your teeth and gum would be examined to know if you are suitable for Invisalign or you have to use another orthodontic treatment option.

If you want to go for an Invisalign consultation, it helps to know what to expect during the consultation, so, you can prepare more for it.

What to expect on your first Invisalign consultation
  • Your dentist will ask several questions.

Your dentist would ask you questions about your medical history if you breathe through your mouth or if you grind your teeth. The answers to these questions help your dentist understand your oral health and what type of orthodontic treatment you need.

  • Someone will take several photos.

You will have someone during your consultation, who will take photos of your face, mouth and teeth. You would also have an x-ray of your teeth and facial structure. All these are necessary to help your dentist create a treatment plan that would suit your orthodontic need.

  • Your dentist will create your treatment plan.

After your dentist examines your teeth, the photos that were taken and your x-rays, he/she will create an accurate breakdown of your treatment plan using the Invisalign technology. Your dentist will make all the changes your teeth needs on the 3D model structure, and you will see all the changes your teeth would undergo at every stage of your treatment until your teeth are in their perfect position. Your dentist would also tell you how long you will wear your aligners.

  • Your dentist will tell you all you need to know about Invisalign

Your dentist will inform you about Invisalign, how it straightens the teeth, the duration of your treatment, and what you need to do when it comes to your oral hygiene for your treatment to go as planned. At this point, you can ask any question you have about your treatment and get accurate answers from the professional.

Bear in mind that Invisalign can be used by most people, but it may not be suitable for some orthodontic issues. Your dentist will help you decide if Invisalign treatment is for you.

  • You will talk about money.

When all about your treatment plan has been settled, your dentist will give you an accurate price quote for your treatment which includes your consultation fee down to when you need retainers to keep your straightened teeth in their new position.

You can discuss a payment plan with your dentist if you cannot make complete payment at once. Most Invisalign dentists have payment plans that you can choose from. Your dentist may also tell you what your insurance would cover and other payment options that might work for both of you.

Before you commit to getting Invisalign, you would have to think about it to know if the treatment option is suitable for you.
