Invisalign has become one of the most popular treatment options for patients with a lack of confidence, an uneven smile, or a combination of the two. Recognised as a convenient and accessible solution which uses invisible aligners slotted over the teeth to adjust and realign them into the desired position, Invisalign may not be cheap, but the results speak for themselves.
So, what’s the latest from the world of dental cosmetics – and why is Invisalign Essex treatment now being offered alongside a 5D scanning system? Here is all you need to know about the latest innovation and how 5D scanning could help prolong the results of your Invisalign treatment – and keep your brand new smile gleaming for years to come.
What is 5D Invisalign scanning?
When you come to the practice for your Invisalign scan, the aim is to recreate the alignment of your teeth on the screen, then use technology to demonstrate how that alignment could change over the course of an Invisalign treatment program.
5D scanning takes this one step further, enabling us to not only capture the aesthetic layout of your teeth but work out the best method for treatment, the ideal process, and even how to clean your teeth from all angles. This enables us to map potential treatment outcomes and results, talking you through the before and after and pairing this information with advice on how to maximise the longevity of your results through oral hygiene and other dentistry work.
The benefits of 5D scanning for clients
The benefits of 5D Invisalign scanning are comprehensive for our clients. First and foremost, it grants us as your trusted dental practice more information as to the position and cleanliness of your teeth. This allows us to recognise the most suitable treatment which will garner high level results and cause the least amount of discomfort.
It also lets you see more clearly how your teeth could look with a committed approach to Invisalign aligner braces, which we tend to find helps clients to really throw themselves into the process and commit to wearing the aligners for 22 hours per day.
Finally, the handheld scanning device makes all of this possible in a pain-free and exceptionally efficient way, with no radiation and a guarantee that the images gained will be crystal clear and easy to dissect.
All that’s left to ask is whether this is the right treatment option for you – and where to sign up!
