How To Take Photos For Your Zenyum Pre-Assessment

22 September 2020

Are you considering straightening your teeth with Zenyum but you’re unsure about the pre-assessment process? Don’t worry, we’ve got you! This guide will walk you through how to upload pictures of your teeth and explain why this step is essential.

Why do you need a Pre-Assessment?

Before starting your journey with Zenyum Invisible Braces, it’s crucial to evaluate your dental situation. The pre-assessment helps us determine if our aligners can effectively address your needs. Just like you wouldn’t swipe right on a dating app profile without a photo, we can’t commit to your treatment without seeing your teeth first.

During this process, you’ll upload four pictures of your teeth from different angles. These images allow our team of dentists to assess your suitability for invisible braces and decide on the best approach for your treatment.

Zenyum Pre-assessment journey:

Phase 1: Snap a picture of your front teeth

Say cheese! For this first photo, smile naturally while biting down gently on your back teeth. Avoid clenching your jaws or biting down on your front teeth, as this can distort your smile.

This picture helps us evaluate your bite, natural smile, and any misalignments (malocclusions) present.

Phase 2: Snap a picture of your lower teeth

Now it’s time to show us your lower teeth! Open your mouth wide enough to reveal all your lower teeth, including the back ones, and hold your phone directly in front of your mouth at chin level. 

Gently pull your lips away from your teeth using your fingers to ensure nothing obstructs the view. Relax your jaw and take a natural smile to give us a good idea of your bite and alignment. Before uploading, review the photo to confirm that all your lower teeth are clearly visible and well-lit. A clear picture helps us assess your teeth better!

Phase 3: Snap a picture of your upper teeth

To capture your upper teeth, hold your phone at chin level and tilt your chin slightly down. Open your mouth wide and ensure your lips are pulled back so all your teeth are visible, especially the back ones. This photo helps us assess the condition of your upper teeth, including any overcrowding or gaps.

 If you find it tricky, angle your phone’s camera upwards from below, or flip it to use the selfie camera for a closer shot. Just remember to flip the image before uploading! If you’re still having trouble, don’t hesitate to ask a friend for help.
