Did Invisalign SPLIT any of your teeth when worn?

By Angela, IL on 07 Dec 2011

I am currently on my 21st tray lowers, and two of my teeth have split (up and down) and was wondeting if anyone else had that complaint?  If so, let me know, thanks

The teeth are not broken, but they have splits, one has a couple and one I just noticed has one. I am on tray 21 of 25, almost done, and I can say that I was all for Invisalign, until this started happening. Now I am looking into what I can do, or if any others have had similar problems and what they did about it, fix wise. Im not even sure why this has happened, but I dont see any other explaination besides these trays and the pressure and movement that they do on the teeth themselves. Thank you, for sending me that link Megan P!

Sure thing!

You could always post your question in the Q&A Section too, that way the dentists could tell you if they have seen anything like this before.

If what you are seeing are hairline cracks it could be a combo that now that the teeth have moved and you are paying super close attention to your teeth you are seeing the little fractures you may not have noticed before. I have a few hairline fractures on my teeth. I wouldn't have even known about them but the hygienist pointed them out one time to me.

Wow, I'm so sorry to hear this has happened to you. Of all the reviews I have read I can only remember I other person who talked about this. You can click here to read their review.

Are the cracks small hairline fractures, or did the tooth actually break?
