Stay connected with your aligner team between visits

Raise a question between appointments

A question may come to mind after a visit, when you look back at your plan or think about the next discussion. Support access gives you somewhere to take that question. Your treating team identifies the contact route to use and how your question will be handled within your individual care arrangements.

Around-the-clock access describes availability of the support route, not a deadline for a reply. The team's actual answer and any confirmed review or appointment explain what has been arranged for you.

Keep the answer and the agreed next step together

The contact route tells you where a question can go. A received answer tells you what the team has explained. A confirmed office discussion tells you where that conversation will continue and who you will see. Reading them together makes the care arrangement easier to understand.

For example, an answer can explain that your orthodontist will discuss the purpose of a proposed next step with you in person. The appointment confirmation then gives that discussion a definite place in your care. Sending a question alone does not confirm an appointment.

Use the contact instructions for your own care

If you are already receiving treatment, use the contact instructions supplied by your treating team. When considering care at SMILE-FX, understanding the support route, orthodontist involvement and individual follow-up arrangements helps you see how the service would fit your questions, alongside the appliance itself.
