Patient FAQ's
Clear aligner treatment time depends on the complexity of your case... how much your teeth need to move. The average Simple™ case takes 3-6 months, more than twice as fast as the other guys. We're able to achieve this with our aligner technology and Simple-doctor-patient process.
First, we'll send you over to a local doctor who will make sure your mouth is healthy and do a 3D scan of your teeth. With that 3D scan we can start designing a series of treatment steps to gently nudge the teeth in place. Then we'll build a pair of clear aligners that matches up with each step of your treatment. You'll wear each step 24 hours a day for 7-10 days before moving to the next step, carefully pushing and pulling certain teeth over the span of the week.
You need to wear your aligners 24 hours a day, taking them out only to eat and drink (except water). The aligners are very thin and you should barely know they are there after the first couple of days.
For sure, we'll just need you to connect us with your doctor to integrate our systems.
We partner with local doctors all over the United States and Canada, adding more locations every week. Reach out to get scheduled near you.
The fundamentals between Simple™ and traditional braces is essentially the same: gently pulling and pushing the teeth into place. The difference is that instead of having metal wires on your teeth, Simple™ is invisible. Traditional braces also require you to visit your doctor every couple of weeks for adjustments, while Simple™ has fewer visits throughout the treatment.
Yep. When you are ready to start your treatment you can pay with card or you can apply for financing. Our financing is typically done with our partners at Ally over 24 months.
Doctor FAQ's
To keep things very easy we have 2 options: Unlimited: aligners for 3 years for a fixed rate or Flex: Pay only for the aligners you need. You can decide which option you want on each case.
On each case there's a simple option to order a revision. If the case was Unlimited, then the revision is free or if the case was Flex, then you just pay for the new aligners that you need to order.
On the doctor portal, you can track every case including its current status and shipment details.
We have offices and facilities in Texas, Arizona, and North Carolina.
Just log into your doctor portal, open the case in question, and send a message to our team. There, we can keep our conversation specific to that case.
We have an integration with Medit and iTero. For these scanners, you can send the files directly from the scanner. We support all other scanners as well; just export the STL file and upload it into your Simple portal.
We work with a third party that can 3D scan your moulds for a small fee.
