Is the end result on the screen what I’ll actually get?+
Treat it as a proposed outcome. Software helps organize the movements, but your teeth respond biologically, so results have to be checked as they happen.
What kind of scan or records are involved?+
They can include digital scans, photographs, X-rays and a bite assessment. Your dentist decides what’s appropriate for your particular case.
Why doesn’t every tooth follow the plan?+
Tooth movement is a biological response, and it depends partly on consistent wear. Some kinds of movement are also less predictable with aligners than others.
Can I ask which movements might not go as planned?+
Please do. It’s a useful question to raise while reviewing your proposal, and knowing the answer can help you decide whether trays make sense.
If the plan changes midway, am I starting over?+
A change could mean refinement trays or a specific correction, depending on what the check shows. Your dentist can explain what a change means for you at the time.
