Will Invisalign Work for Me?

i am still looking for an invisalign certified dentist that could assess me in person; while i haven't found one yet i have attached pix for rough assessment. thanks! :)

A: Depending on Your Goals

The photo is not detailed enough to give you an accurate evaluation.  You appear to have minimal amount of crowding which could definitely be treated by Invisalign. However, your lower jaw is forward of your upper jaw and I am not sure if that is the actual position of the lower jaw in relation to the upper jaw.

How Is the Amount Needed of Invisalign Trays Determined? Is it Determined by the Doctor or Invisalign?

Different doctors gave estimated treatment time for a year or so. The doctor that unfortunally did my treatment say 10 trays will be enough. After the 10 trays the IPR gaps did not close completely and he bonded them. Now, I am so scared that invisalign might have moved my teeth too fast. I got pulpitis on one tooth. He wanted to do a root canal but I decided to wait. After 2 months the tooth is better but still a little sensitive. I want to get braces but afraid to hurt my teeth.

A: Both Doctor and Invisalign Determine Number of Aligners

Both the Doctor and Invisalign determine the total number of Aligners. Invisalign provides the doctor a general roadmap of how treatment should progress. However, it is up to the doctor to use his/her diagnostic ability and experience to direct the final treatment plan. Invisalign is not the doctor and should not be relied upon to take that responsibility.
