Follow Morgan’s Invisalign teeth straightening journey on our case study videos below.
Morgan inherited uneven and crooked teeth from both parents (so he told us!) which has made him self-conscious about showing his teeth when he talks and smiles.
He was attracted to Invisalign because of the ‘invisible’ nature of the treatment. This is very appealing to this twenty-four year old, as they won’t be noticeable at work or when going out with friends.
Morgan has agreed to share a video diary so you can see first hand the amazing results that can be achieved with this brilliant, non-invasive teeth straightening product. If you are interested in this treatment call our friendly team to book a FREE consultation with us on 01908 230209. We currently have a generous benefits package for those booking Invisalign treatment with us.
Morgan’s Invisalign Journey – a live case study
Phase 1 – Morgan starts treatment with the scanning
Morgan starts his Invisalign teeth straightening journey with Appledore dental Milton Keynes. His first visit involves using the Itero Dental Scanner to create an accurate image of his teeth – saving the need for a mouthful of putty to make moulds! These scanned images are used then by Invisalign to create the invisible aligners that Morgan will wear for the next 18 months.

Phase 2 – Morgan’s second appointment
Morgan has his second appointment at Appledore Milton Keynes, to assess how the Invisalign Aligners are working and to do some dental work to ‘assist’ how the Aligners do their job. One tooth is filed slightly to allow it room to move and then four small tooth coloured attachments are fixed to Morgans teeth. These help the Aligners control the movement of the teeth where there is some rotation to do, i.e. twisting the tooth slightly to straighten it up.

Phase 3 – Morgan’s third appointment
Morgan has his third appointment at Appledore Milton Keynes to check on his Invisalign teeth straightening progress. A couple of teeth are filed slightly again to allow them room to move.
The dentist noticed that the latest set of aligners weren’t quite fitting properly and Morgan admitted during the appointment that he hadn’t worn his aligners for the recommended time during a two week holiday. So Morgan was reminded (in a very friendly way!) that he needs to keep wearing his braces around 22 hours per day for the full treatment to work.
Morgan is given three more sets of aligners and will come back in 6 weeks for another check up.
