Treatment at Denti-Med
To start treatment with the use of dental overlays, you must first undergo appropriate diagnostics. Before starting treatment, it is worth making an appointment for a consultation to familiarize yourself with the planned activities.
At this stage, the doctor will perform and analyze a smile scan. Thanks to this, the orthodontist will be able to make a diagnosis and present the possibilities of using orthodontic overlays. Then, individual overlays are made based on the digital image. They are delivered in short batches (approximately 2-3 months).
Orthodontic aligners are changed after two weeks of use. If the patient wears them contrary to the recommendations, this time should be extended. Follow-up visits occur during treatment. They are usually rare, but their number depends on the individual circumstances of the patient.
Orthodontic overlays – price

At Denti-Med, the patient only pays for the overlays he received. If treatment is satisfactory at a certain stage, it can be stopped earlier. In this case, the cost of treatment is lower than planned at the beginning.
