Ok video #3! This is behind the scenes of what happens before I get my aligners.
Once Invisalign gets the molds of my teeth, they create a 3D virtual model. This model is sent to the doctor to be evaluated. The doctor then instructs the Invisalign lab technician exactly how they would like the tooth moved and in what sequence. This is why it’s so important to see an orthodontist that is experienced in Invisalign. Invisalign is a high-tech lab that makes the aligners, but do not know how to move teeth. It’s the treating doctor that specifies the actual tooth movement. This also means that your results can be drastically different between each doctor and their experience with Invisalign. Moving teeth with Invisalign is different from moving teeth with braces. I should be getting them back soon, so stay tuned for my video blog #4!
