Invisalign
Gold Invisalign provider since 2015
I have offered Invisalign on a bespoke basis since becoming an Invisalign provider in 2008. The Invisalign system uses custom-made clear aligners that are made from a 3D planning model called a Clincheck. I use The iTero® Scanner to take digital moulds of the teeth, I stopped using the putty moulds over six years ago. The scans are photographic, comfortable and faster plus offer a superior clinical endpoint. I love to get my patients involved in their treatment planning, viewing and commenting on their Clincheck so that you know how your customised final smile will look. It’s your smile after all.
I now uses The iTero® Element Scanner to take the records needed for Invisalign. This is a state-of-the-art digital impression system that eliminates the need for messy putty in your mouth. It can digitally capture a detailed 3D model of your teeth and gums.
Not only is this process far more comfortable than the old putty based impressions, but it’s faster and can offer a superior clinical endpoint. © 2016 Align Technology, Inc.
