In 2022, if you are looking to engage in\northodontic care, you may be able to use not only an invisible aligner, but an\ninvisible aligner app to help you get the straighter smile that you want.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

When\nyou come to Clear Braces Direct<\/strong>, our\nteam will be able to assess your suitability for using Invisalign London<\/a> and should\nwe deem you suitable, we will advise you to download the associated app. This\nwill help us to not only stay in touch with you, but to monitor your\nrealignment journey from a distance, meaning fewer trips into our surgery.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

However, it is always good to know a little bit\nabout such things and in this article, we will look into the app that is\nassociated with using Invisalign London<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What is the app?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The app is a way for you to stay virtually\nconnected with our team when you are using Invisalign London<\/strong>. It is downloadable for\niPhones and Androids and is free of charge. It will allow you to share photos\nwith our team, receive feedback and of course, ensure that you are on track\nwith the timeline set down when you began treatment. This will help you to keep\nyour realignment process on track without needing to come into the office every\nfew weeks, unless of course there is an issue. You simply need to set up an\naccount when you download the app and you are ready to go!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Aligner changes<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

As you may remember, you will need to change your\naligner on average every 2 weeks or when it starts to feel loose. With the\naligner change, you will need to send our team 1 video and 3 photos via the\napp. The video may require you to wear cheek retractors and you will need to\nhave 1 smiling photo with your aligners and cheek retractors being worn. You will\nthen need to send another photo with the aligner with the cheek retractors on\nand another with the aligners and cheek retractors off. This will allow us to\nascertain whether or not the treatment is working, but don’t worry. The app\nwill send reminders about when it’s time to send progress videos and photos.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Keeping track<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

If we do not spot any issues in the 3 photos or\nthe video, then you will be sent back an on-track message via the app, which\nwill indicate that the smile is coming along nicely and that the realignment\nprocess is working. So, simply continue to wear the aligners as directed by our\nteam.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Instructions from our team<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sometimes, there can be problems and if you are\nsent instructions, this will mean that we are providing additional guidance,\nwhich may be wearing the current aligner for slightly longer or using\naccessories like chewies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

FAQs<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you have any questions about using the invisible aligners, the app has a dedicated FAQ section which will hopefully be able to answer them. If it doesn’t, then feel free to contact us as soon as possible. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
