First Visit

Today I had my first visit with Dr. Morgan . I was so excited to get this process rolling. Before we could discuss anything they needed an 'impression' of my mouth. Except this was the best impression ever because we didn't have to use the nasty slimy goo mold. They used a camera, that looked like a giant toothbrush handle, that they stuck in my mouth and took a 3D image which was then sent to the computer and turned into a replica of my teeth. It was amazing and so easy! They'll be sending those scans off to their lab where they'll be analyzed to see if my mouth is a good candidate for aligners or not. Sometimes a patient will need a little more orthodontic help if the teeth as severe. I'm just praying that my crooked teeth will make the cut! Stayed tuned to find out!
