The practice behind the guide
The practice reports that clinical director Dr. Tracy Liang, DDS, MS and the orthodontic team review every scan with VIP scan specialists.
SMILE-FX® reports over 1,800 active remote-monitoring cases as of October 27, 2026. This practice-supplied case count is operational context, not independently audited unique patients, platform-specific totals or outcome evidence.
Care at SMILE-FX®

A separate production route

Included benefits
Fixed and removable retainers plus whitening are included in the treatment proposal.
Whitening
At-home and in-office whitening are available; appropriate methods and personal arrangements are decided individually.
How to use this guide
The capabilities above describe the practice's care model. Your clinician confirms which options and arrangements fit your individual care.
The program explanations use manufacturer information. The selected randomized-trial description uses its published abstract, not a full-paper review. The fictional episode is a teaching example, not an actual patient or a promised result.
