Preconditions That Prevent Someone from Getting Invisalign?
I am going in for an appointment with an orthodontist tomorrow to see if I can get Invisalign. Is there any way I wouldn't be able to get them? (cost not a factor)

Invisalign not a magic bullet
While invisalign is a useful tool, it isn't for everyone. Determining limits would require an exam, as you likely would not know if some teeth were rotated too much or if you had active gum disease.
But you may be a great candidate. Your exam should be enlightening.

Not everyone is a candidate for Invisalign
Some cases still require regular bracket and wire braces. Invisalign has limitations and cannot perfom all orthodontic movements well. Ask your orthodontist what CAN'T be accomplished with Invisalign in your case.
