Invisible? No! Efficient? Yes Completely!

Hi, I am 25 and never wanted to have braces so when I heard about Invisalign I was all excited. BUT they never told me that I would have "attachments" until I paid...so ask before you go ahead because the attachments are totally visible and everybody will ask what you have on your teeth... I read a lot about it and I learned that the #1 cause of Invisalign failure is that people don't wear the aligners at least 20 hours a day, so I did (actually I aimed for 22h/day) and after 22 aligners my teeth are completely fixed. I am very satisfied with the results but if it was to do it again, I would go with lingual braces (under the teeth). I also went to an Invisalign Premier Provider, which explains the price, so if you can, really, invest a little more, but go with a good orthodontist...I benchmarked before and I thought I will keep the result all my life...so it was worth it...

Great review?

Great doctor, he knows his stuff. I saw many dentists before him and you can tell, this guy will identify your problem in a minute and knows exactly what to do about it.

Are there many dentists in Halifax that would do it for that price? I had braces for years but apparently it wasn't long enough-- I have to get them on again and I was hoping for Invisalign. Thats good to know that they do have visible attachments though, I'll have to find a picture and see if its really worth it or if I should just go with regular braces.
