Smile Center Dentistry plans Invisalign Clear Aligners digitally, so you see a projected before-and-after on screen before ordering your first set of aligners.
These are the four things patients actually ask about before booking Invisalign Clear Aligners, not a generic checklist we copied from another service page.
Digital scans are also more accurate than physical impressions, which matters once aligners are being custom-milled.
We review the simulation together and adjust the plan before any trays are manufactured.
Small tooth-colored attachments and any interproximal reduction are mapped out from the start, not decided ad hoc.
No per-visit surprise fees — refinement trays are typically included in the original quote.
Every option below is available under the same upfront-pricing standard, whichever specific service ends up fitting your case.
The scan and screening visit determines complexity and gives you a realistic treatment-length estimate. Mild to moderate crowding and spacing are usually excellent aligner candidates.
We walk through the simulation together and make adjustments before finalizing the treatment plan. This is the step where you get a real sense of how long treatment will realistically take.
Both are planned from the simulation, not decided spontaneously mid-treatment. Attachments are tooth-colored and barely noticeable in normal conversation.
Each tray is worn roughly one to two weeks before moving to the next, typically 20 to 22 hours a day. We'll flag early if trays aren't tracking properly so we can adjust before it compounds.
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. Refinement trays are typically included in the original treatment quote.
No mystery about what happens between calling us and walking out with the problem addressed.
Schedule an intraoral scan and eligibility screening, usually within the same week.
We answer questions and adjust the plan together at this stage.
Once approved, your first sets of aligners are ordered and fitted.
We stay involved through the final retainer fitting, not just the first few weeks.
We publish these as-is, because that's the only kind of review worth reading before booking Invisalign Clear Aligners.
“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 Chatsworth 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.
Not every case requires attachments — it depends on the specific movements needed.
Wear time compliance is the biggest factor in staying on the simulation's projected schedule.
Refinement trays exist specifically to correct minor tracking differences at the end of treatment.
The full course, including refinement trays, is typically quoted as one flat-rate price before you start.
