How It Works
First, you'll start by telling us a little about yourself. Then, you'll snap a few pictures of your teeth.
Step 1:
With your smartphone and someone to help you, replicate these 8 photos below. The better the picture you send, the more we can see and discuss!
Need help taking photos? Try to make sure that the room is well lit for the best quality photos.
A good way to help retract your cheeks away from your teeth during the photos is for you to hold your cheeks with 2 spoons, while your friend or family member takes the photos for you.
Step 2:
Fill out the form below.
Step 3:
All done! Dr. Nicholas Rafaill or Dr. Thomas Rafaill will review your photos and get back to you soon with your treatment plan options.
