An intraoral scanner replaces the old goop-and-tray impression, and a ClinCheck simulation shows you roughly how your smile will move before you commit to a single tray.
Every Smile Center Dentistry office offering Invisalign Clear Aligners is held to the same four standards, verified before the office ever joins our network.
An intraoral scanner captures your bite in minutes, replacing the old alginate tray most patients dread.
Before ordering aligners, you'll see a projected simulation of how your teeth are expected to move, stage by stage.
Small tooth-colored attachments and any interproximal reduction are mapped out from the start, not decided ad hoc.
The full course of aligners, refinement trays, and check-ins is quoted as one package price before you start.
Here's the range of Invisalign Clear Aligners our Silver Bay team handles most, described the way we'd explain it chairside rather than in marketing language.
The scan and screening visit determines complexity and gives you a realistic treatment-length estimate. More complex bite issues may still qualify, just with a longer projected timeline.
We walk through the simulation together and make adjustments before finalizing the treatment plan. Ask questions here — this is the easiest point to change course if something doesn't look right.
Both are planned from the simulation, not decided spontaneously mid-treatment. IPR is done in tiny increments, well within enamel safety limits.
We review proper insertion, removal, and cleaning technique at your fitting appointment. Compliance with wear time is the single biggest factor in staying on schedule.
Periodic in-office or virtual check-ins confirm teeth are tracking with the simulation. Most patients need a check-in every six to eight weeks.
Once finished, a custom retainer keeps teeth from drifting back — this step isn't optional. Retainer wear schedules are explained clearly, including the long-term nighttime routine.
No mystery about what happens between calling us and walking out with the problem addressed.
A quick call gets your scan booked and starts the simulation process.
See your projected tooth movement on-screen before committing to treatment.
You'll get one flat-rate price covering the full course of trays before ordering begins.
Regular check-ins confirm your teeth are tracking with the simulation until refinement and retention.
These are unedited, from patients who've actually been through Invisalign Clear Aligners treatment with us in the past year.
“Seeing the simulation before committing made the decision so much easier. I knew roughly what to expect the whole way through.”
“No goop trays for the impression, just a quick scan. Should have looked into this years ago.”
“The refinement trays were already included in my quote, so there was no surprise bill at the end of treatment.”
“My teeth actually tracked ahead of the simulation timeline, and they caught it and adjusted my check-in schedule accordingly.”
“Attachments were barely noticeable, and the whole process felt a lot less intimidating than traditional braces would have.”
These are the questions Silver Bay patients ask most before booking Invisalign Clear Aligners.
Your ClinCheck simulation gives a projected timeline specific to your case before you commit.
The scan and screening visit will tell us honestly whether aligners are the right tool for your case.
Some cases need small tooth-colored attachments for extra grip; your ClinCheck simulation will show exactly which teeth need them.
Most treatment plans require 20 to 22 hours daily, removed only for eating and cleaning.
We catch tracking issues at progress check-ins and adjust the plan before it compounds into a bigger delay.
Check-in visits are included in the original treatment cost, not billed separately.
If you're unsure whether your part of Silver Bay is covered, a quick call settles it faster than searching online.
We coordinate Invisalign Clear Aligners treatment for Silver Bay patients from the first scan through final retainer fitting. Ask about scheduling flexibility if you're balancing this around a busy work schedule.
