How It Works
Your journey begins with a simple introduction. Share a bit about yourself, and then capture some images of your teeth.
Step 1:
Using your smartphone and a helper, replicate these 8 photo angles shown below. The clearer your photos, the more detailed our discussion can be!
Ensure your room is brightly lit for high-quality images.
To keep your cheeks clear of your teeth, use two spoons for retraction while a friend or family member snaps the photos.
