I am not happy with the appearence of my teeth, upon going to the dentist he devised a treatment plan. Invisalign, fixed retainer and composite bonding on my lateral incisors to fix the "open bite" look. When he took my xrays he noticed my roots are shorter on my lateral incisors and asked a more senior dentist for 2nd opinion - both agreed it would be fine to go ahead. The short roots make me nervous, can anyone offer advice? Would the treatment have negative effect on my short roots?
