The teeth play a crucial role in our body. They help in chewing food items help to speak clearly, and they also form an essential part of our facial structure. Therefore, the teeth must be taken care of properly. A dental checkup with your Apex NC dentist must be done every six months to ensure that there are no dental problems.
Your Apex NC dentist offers advanced technology for full patient care. The office utilizes digital x-rays, which emit up to 90% less radiation than film-based units. The images can be enlarged and enhanced for a clearer picture. An intraoral camera displays images of your mouth on a chairside monitor. This helps your Apex NC dentist to better explain procedures and steps to you. These technologies join together to ensure you receive precise dental care in a timely manner. In addition, our dental health team consists of skilled and friendly professionals who make visiting the dentist a pleasant experience.
Your Apex NC dentist will determine whether or not you’re a good candidate for Invisalign. We will take x-rays, pictures, and impressions of your teeth to create a digital 3-D image. Using special software, your Apex NC dentist will then map out a precise treatment plan based on the way your teeth need to move. This plan will detail the exact movements of your teeth at each stage of the treatment process. You’ll be able to see what your teeth are expected to look like at the end of the treatment and during each stage of the process so you can see how they’ll look once your treatment is complete.
Once your custom-made aligners are ready, you’ll wear them for about 22 hours a day — taking them out to eat, drink, brush, and floss. Every two weeks or so, you’ll switch out the aligners for a new set and continue straightening your teeth. Over time, the aligners will help shift your teeth into place. You’ll still need to visit the dentist every six weeks or so to ensure that your treatment is progressing as planned.
