Invisalign and Black Triangles? (photo)

July 3, 2013
Asked By:janesse

After watching the clincheck video and beginning my treatment about a week ago I become worried about the animation that shows my top teeth will be moved outward to the point that there will be measurable gaps between my teeth before they are then brought back together. Can this process of moving teeth apart and creating a gap cause the LOSS or recession, or cause further recession of the interdental papilla? I'm beginning to think I should bail out as I already have beautiful teeth on top.
