Invisalign: Q&A

Is Invisalign a Good Option for Me?

I am 63. I need alignment particularly on my front teeth. It mainly affects only the incisors. The upper ones have a large gap, and the lower once are too tight and overlap.

I tried braces 10 years ago with partial success. Invisalign was just new then, and I was advised it would be the better option for me.

Invisalign is a great option for teeth spacing and alignment problems

Of course Invisalign is a good option for you, assuming you have no periodontal disease and you do have sound bone. You have a case that would be great for what we call a "combo case". Using Invisalign to place the teeth in proper position and then finishing your smile with some cosmetic enhancements. Creating proper alignment and a great smile along the way.
