How it works: The clear aligner therapy process
Consultation
During your consultation, Dr. L Nash will assess whether clear aligner therapy is suitable for you. Initially, Dr. L Nash will evaluate the condition of your gums and teeth to identify any gaps or crowding. Additionally, they will engage in a conversation about your desired smile outcomes and create a personalized treatment plan tailored specifically to your needs.
Impressions and Digital Imaging
Dr. L Nash will proceed by capturing a series of digital images of your mouth and creating a mold of your teeth, referred to as an impression. If necessary, he will make necessary adjustments to ensure your teeth are correctly aligned on the mold. After this step, Dr. L Nash will send the images and impressions to a specialized laboratory, where your initial sets of clear aligners will be crafted.
Fitting and Next Steps
Once your aligners are finished, Dr. L Nash will examine them to ensure they fit properly and are aligned correctly. You will be instructed by the dentist to wear each set for 20-22 hours a day and replace them every 2 weeks. Every 6 weeks, you will visit our office at Tyler, TX to collect your next few sets of aligners and for the doctor to assess the progress of your teeth.
