Smile Express FAQs
What’s the Difference Between Smile Express and Full Treatment?
Smile Express provides you with the most flexibility possible while still achieving amazing results. Smile Express cases are an average of six months in length and are ideal for those looking to make minor adjustments to achieve the perfect smile. Full treatment cases include corrections for more complex issues requiring frequent office visits to our Alexandria, VA clinic.
Who is a Good Candidate for Smile Express aligners?
Anyone who’s old enough to be “adulting” out on your own is probably a good candidate, but we need to see your smile to know for sure. When you come in for your complimentary exam and consultation, Hughes Orthodontics will let you know if you’re a good candidate based on the complexity and length of your treatment plan.
How Do I Start Smile Express in Alexandria, VA
It all starts with a FREE, no-obligation consultation. After your complimentary consultation, your treatment coordinator will review your contract and answer any questions you may have. From there, an Invisalign specialist will scan your teeth using one of our digital iTero Scanners, and we’ll handle the rest! Once your customized kit arrives, you simply pop them on starting with set #1 and wear them for 20-22 hours a day!
Do I Have to Come in for an Appointment?
Yes. To ensure Smile Express is a safe treatment option for you, we’ll need to see you in our Alexandria, VA office on at least 2 occasions: once to get started and once for your final evaluation.
