Appendix A - Disclaimers

General

 

  • Clear aligner treatments should not be used by you in case you have a history of allergic reactions to plastics.

  • Orthodontic treatments using clear aligners like any other treatment of the human body, has inherent risks and limitations. Like any other treatment, you should consider all potential side effects associated with such treatment.

  • Tobacco use places orthodontic patients at greater risk of cancer and periodontal (gum) disease. Tobacco reduces blood flow to the mouth tissues at a time when good blood flow is needed for tooth movement. We cannot be held liable for any of these instances.

  • In few cases depending on the treatment option selected by the patient, treatments may not be based on physical check-ups, but through images and x-rays to be provided by the patients. In case you chose the treatment option where the treatment is monitored through images sent by you to us, we shall not be held liable in case there is any variance in the treatment due to the lack of accuracy of the said images/ x-rays.

  • Depending upon the complexity of your case, one or more extraction(s) may be recommended.

  • Supplemental treatment may be required for severe open bites, overjet or skeletally narrow jaw. This does not form part of your Route to Smile Clear Aligner treatment.

  • To correct severe crowding or jaw imbalances, oral surgery could be required. If so, consider risks associated with surgery before starting clear aligner treatment. The oral surgery does not form part of your Route to Smile Clear Aligner treatment.

  • A tooth’s surface (enamel) is a crystalline structure and like other crystals it can have undetected defects and fracture lines within it. Enamel may also wear in case you grind your teeth excessively. We will not be liable for any of these instances.

  • Occasionally, a limited period of braces may be recommended to achieve an optimal result. This is outside the purview of the treatment provided by us.

 

Pre-requisites before starting Clear Aligner Treatment

 

  • We advise and recommend you do a general dental examination before starting the clear aligner treatment. Any dental work that will alter the shape or size of your teeth should be undertaken before scheduling the digital scan/ impression to begin your clear aligner treatment.

  • Aligners are not effective in moving dental implants and existing dental restorations such as crowns, bridges, may require re-cementation, or, in some cases replacement.

  • It is important for you to tell us about any previous injury or stress to any tooth, to understand the health of each tooth. Sometimes seemingly minor bumps can result in nerve damage that maybe unknown to you. Such previous injuries cannot always be detected during the orthodontic process. In case if there is any variation in the treatment due to any previous injury which is not brought to our notice before starting treatment, or any injury that takes place during treatment which may have an impact on the on-going treatment, we will not be held liable for the same.

  • General medical conditions or medications can affect orthodontic treatment. You should inform us in case of such medical conditions occurring during treatment. We will not be liable for any issues/ complications due to undisclosed medical conditions.

  • There are some medicines which may either increase or decrease the tooth movement leading to a possible difference in treatment duration/ quality. Medication of any kind being consumed by the patient should be disclosed. We will not be liable for any issues/ complications due to undisclosed medical conditions.

 

Treatment Plan

 

  • Everybody has different teeth, which is why you receive a predicted smile simulation video and a comprehensive treatment plan, in which your individual best possible cosmetic orthodontic outcome is explained and depicted. This informs you on the clinical results attainable in your specific case, which depend on your bone structure and how your teeth respond to the treatment.

  • While we provide a predicted smile simulation video, the response of a living system cannot be predicted perfectly. Hence, we give you only an estimated treatment time as your responses to orthodontic forces may vary considerably, varying the overall treatment duration. The response to orthodontic forces will depend on various factors which may be different for each individual and the same cannot be predicted while preparing the treatment plan. 

  • It is our endeavour to establish realistic and achievable goals for treatment. We know that you share our desire to produce the best result that is possible. However, like any other medical procedure, we do not guarantee the success of the treatment as the biological responses to the treatment cannot be predicted.

 

During Treatment

 

  • Brushing and flossing regularly is important, else it will lead to forming of plaque which can cause tooth decay and permanent white decalcification markings.

  • Your gum, cheeks or lips may be scratched or irritated by the aligner occasionally.

  • You may have tender teeth after switching to the next aligner in the series. The period of tenderness or sensitivity varies with each patient.

  • Occasionally, a tooth becomes tightly bound (ankylosed) to its surrounding bone. It may not be possible to move that tooth at all. A change in the treatment may be necessary if a tooth ankyloses. We will not be liable for any of these as such instances cannot be predicted at the time of the treatment and may occur due to inherent risks of any orthodontic treatment.

  • It is in our general intention to have treatment move along in a fashion that is consistent with tissue health, minimal discomfort, and long-term stability. However, mild levels of pain and discomfort are normal and may be expected during the treatment.

  • The health of the bone and gums supporting the teeth may be adversely affected during/ after the treatment. Further, Orthodontic treatment may shorten the teeth roots. This may reduce the longevity of the teeth. We will not be liable for any of these as such instances cannot be predicted at the time of the treatment, any may occur due to inherent risks of any orthodontic treatment. It is also possible for the nerve of a tooth to die during orthodontic treatment, especially if a tooth was previously injured, bumped or impacted. We cannot be held liable for any of these as such instances cannot be predicted at the time of the treatment, and may occur due to inherent risks of any orthodontic treatment.

  • Pain, discomfort, clicking or popping noises may occur in or near the joint of the jaw sometimes, including during orthodontic treatment. Just as with any joint discomfort, the possible causes may vary. We will not be liable for any of these as such instances cannot be predicted at the time of the treatment, any may occur due to inherent risks of any orthodontic treatment.

  • Our aligners are designed to have maximum amount of strength and a minimum amount of injury potential. Nevertheless, accidents can occur. It is also possible for you to swallow or inhale parts of the appliance or our instruments. We will not be liable for any of these instances as the same are unpredictable and cannot be controlled by us.

  • Orthodontic forces initiate a cellular response in the supporting tissues surrounding the roots of the teeth. This cellular force allows the teeth to move. Sometimes this response becomes confused resulting in damage to the ends of the roots of the teeth. Usually, this effect is mild and does not compromise the teeth, however, sometimes this root resorption can be extensive and may then endanger the teeth if periodontal (bone and gum) support is lost at some future time. Some patients are prone to this happening, some are not. Because it is not possible to predict which teeth might be affected, we may want to take progress x-rays of your teeth during the treatment process at your own cost to evaluate whether root resorption is occurring. This is an inherent risk of Orthodontic treatment, and we will not be liable in such instances. It may also be possible that the Doctor determines it necessary to get an X-ray in between treatment at your own cost.

 

Factors affecting results

 

  • It is important to note that biological factors, such as tooth thickness, can limit the tooth's responsiveness to treatment and ability to align in 100% accordance with the plan, a factor that cannot be detected or predicted at the treatment planning stage.

  • In general, dental change tends to be slow, but as much as we would like to, we cannot tell a patient exactly what might happen if they decide not to proceed with our recommendations. Poor oral hygiene, poor compliance on aligner wear time, lost appliances, unreported missing attachments, missed appointments and other factors may extend the treatment time. It is highly possible that the individual best possible cosmetic orthodontic outcome will not be achieved if our recommendations are not followed. In all instances where access to the Route to Smile Mobile Application has been provided, it is imperative for the patient to log in the number of hours they have worn the Aligners daily on the Route to Smile App. In addition to this, it is also imperative to complete the pre-aligner and post-aligner change form along with the milestone review form on the Route to Smile App. We will not be liable for any variance in the treatment if you do not follow our recommendations.

  • Missing, erupting or unusually shaped teeth may affect treatment outcomes.

  • We cannot guarantee that the proposed treatment will be successful to your complete satisfaction. Individual patient differences create the possibility of incomplete or unstable results. Selective re-treatment due to patient poor co-operation may be charged.

 

Refinements

 

  • Refinements only apply when the best possible cosmetic orthodontic outcome in your specific case is not achieved and does not include or cover variations to the plan based on tooth shape, reduced biological response or subjective aesthetic perception of your smile, or of what a perfect smile is. What will be considered as the best possible cosmetic orthodontic outcome shall be our sole discretion.

  • If your case requires refinements, it may be possible that the Doctor determines it necessary to get an X-ray in between treatment at your own cost.

 

Results

 

  • Even after Clear Aligner treatment there may be a situation wherein the patient might have to get tooth-coloured filling done to close minor spaces. This is outside the purview of the treatment provided by us.

 

Post Treatment

  • Retainers worn after completion of treatment will enhance the stability of the result, but even diligent wear of the retainers may not keep the teeth exactly as they were at the end of the treatment. However, on-going wear of retainers are likely to ensure that such changes are restricted to the minimum.

  • If you decide to stop wearing retainers at some point, your teeth may change. Some of the original problems may re-emerge. We will not be liable for any of these instances.

  • Maturational changes that occur after active orthodontic treatment may alter the quality of the result.
