Am I Suitable for Dentily?
The first step to get started with Dentily is to see if you’re a candidate. Take our free, 30-second Smile Assessment to find out.
If you’re a good fit for Dentily, your next step is to visit our Smile Centre in Manchester or purchase a risk free, at home impression kit so one of the duly licensed dentists or orthodontists in our network can evaluate your smile. We receive a lot of general questions about candidacy, and we’ve compiled them here to help make your purchase decision even easier.
Regular dental cleanings
In order to be qualified as a candidate for Dentily, you need to be in good dental health. Customers must have visited a dentist within the past year for a cleaning and checkup to ensure that your teeth and gums are healthy in order to use Dentily invisible aligners.
Cavities
You must have any cavities filled before you can be approved by the Dentily evaluation process. If you know you have a cavity, go ahead and get it taken care of before purchasing your evaluation kit. Otherwise, the dental providers in our network will see it in your photo assessment or impressions, which will prevent you from moving forward with treatment.
Crowns
Don’t worry, if you have crowns on your teeth, you could still be eligible for treatment. However, if you’re planning to get a crown in the next few months, then you’ll want to do that first. Adding a crown changes the shape of your teeth, which would change the fit of your aligners.
Implants and bridges
Like other invisible aligners, Dentily aligners can’t shift a permanent implant or bridge. Because implants are screwed into the bone, they won’t move during treatment.
Baby teeth
If you still have baby teeth, then you wouldn’t be a candidate for Dentily. You must be at least 12 years old and have your adult teeth in order to qualify for Dentily.
Wisdom teeth
Some customers with their wisdom teeth are eligible for treatment. You would need to discuss with your local dentist or orthodontist to determine whether you should retain your wisdom teeth during treatment, or if they need to be removed before you can be qualified as a candidate.
Over-bite, under-bite, cross-bite
Our aligners are designed to not only help straighten smiles, but they may also correct bite issues. Complete a 3D scan or at-home impression kit so one of the dentists or orthodontists in our network can evaluate your specific needs.
