Should you decide that the Invisalign treatment is for you, our Auburn dentist, Dr. Matson, will create an impression of your teeth, or use the iTero scanner to construct a digital image of the jaw, teeth and gums. We also take pictures of your “before” condition and look at the jaw bones and teeth with x-rays. Quality x-rays are a crucial part of creating your customized Invisalign treatment plan. This information is then used along with Invisalign technology to construct a digital 3D image of your mouth and a treatment plan. You see in the beginning how your teeth will appear at the end of the process and have a good estimate of the length of time required to complete your treatment.
