Invisalignᴹᴰ Simulation: Visualize Your Future Smile

During an Invisalignᴹᴰ consultation, one of the most important and exciting steps is the smile simulation. This technology allows patients to visualize what their smile will look like once the treatment is complete. It is a powerful tool not only for motivating patients but also for helping the general dentist who offers orthodontic services plan the treatment with precision.

What is the Invisalignᴹᴰ smile simulation?

The smile simulation is an advanced technology that uses digital images to create a three-dimensional model of your teeth before, during and after Invisalignᴹᴰ treatment. With the help of an iTero scan, the dentist obtains a precise image of your current dentition and, using advanced planning software, can show you the expected results.

How does the Invisalignᴹᴰ simulation work?

After taking the initial optical impressions of your teeth, Invisalignᴹᴰ’s ClinCheck software generates a three-dimensional model of the different stages of tooth movement throughout your treatment. You can see a before-and-after visualization, giving you a clear idea of how your smile will evolve even before you begin wearing your aligners. It is an excellent opportunity for the patient to form clear expectations and to ask questions to the dentist responsible for the treatment.

Benefits of the Invisalignᴹᴰ simulation for the patient

• Visualization of the results: it can be difficult for patients to imagine the final outcome of orthodontic treatment. The simulation helps remove uncertainty and encourages those who may be hesitant.
• Customized treatment: every smile is unique, and the simulation allows the treatment to be adapted to each patient’s specific needs. This also allows the clinician to adjust the treatment plan if necessary.
• Motivation and confidence: seeing an improved version of your smile at the very first consultation can strengthen your motivation to follow the treatment recommendations all the way through.

Why is the simulation an essential tool for the dental team?

For the general dentist who provides orthodontic services and performs Invisalignᴹᴰ treatment, the smile simulation allows precise planning of tooth movement. This ensures not only optimal results but also better control of the treatment duration. The simulation also helps identify potential challenges and adjust the plan if needed, even before the treatment begins.
