I finished my invisalign treatment & had fixed retainers placed on my lower teeth, two months ago. Just the other day, the glue on the wire came off one tooth! the following day, I had an appointment at my orthodontics office and a hygienist replaced the glue...now after a couple of days, I am noticing spaces between these teeth that weren't there before! I am so upset about this...is it because the wire was tweaked when it was re-glued? Will I have to do treatment again to fix these spaces?
I went through a full treatment of invisalign in 2015. I wore my final retainers for about 6 months and lost them and now my teeth have shifted back and I am wondering if I will need to repay full price to have the treatment redone or if it may be discounted? I was really happy with the result and am really bummed that they have moved back.
I'm 45 years old and my dentist has scanned my teeth 3 months ago with the Iteroscan. She now says that I must NOW (this minute) give her my permission to order the set Invisalign Full aligners because, she says, if we wait any longer my teeth will have shifted position so much that this scan will be useless and we will have to redo it. I'm waiting for the okay of my health insurance. That will take about 1 more month. Do the teeth of an adult shift that much in just 3 months?
I had Invisalign done 8-9 years ago. I wore the retainers for a long time. However now I have two teeth that have regressed to their old spot. And it's a little badd to just use the old retainers. What should I do? My old ortho lives far away but should I see if I can reorder the old trays and redo some of them? Or do I have to do the express with a new ortho. Looking for help with the easiest cheapest option. Thanks
My last retainer has been chewed by my puppy and as I haven't worn it for a week my teeth have moved slightly. Wouold prefer to have the old retainer remade rathr than new impressions due to my teeth moving. Retainer orignally made 4 years ago.
I know..irresponsible but due to my pregnancy and things like that, i just got off track I still have the tracks on my teeth, even a bracket! I want my teeth straight but want to know how much more money it will cost. And im afraid to call my dentist :(
I am currently on tray 10 of 22 lower trays.Braces necessary to open space for implant crown. I was told that tray 11 didn't fit properly and was instructed to start back with tray 1. My teeth have been moving for 4.5 months, and to request that I go back to the beginning has me baffled, to say the least. The space would need to close for the earlier trays to fit. In my opinion, no progress will be made towards the purpose of "opening" the space by starting with tray 1. Seeking another opinion.
