“Invisalign Review, my Pros and Cons (W/video) - Bristol, CT”

Before invisalign i had a gap in my 2 front teeth and 1 of the front teeth was at a slight angle and i also had gaps on my side teeth between the 3rd and 4th tooth on each side. My bottom teeth really didnt need any adjusting they were actually in perfect position already. Im pretty sure Invisalign CAN help with underbite and overbite but im not too sure ask an Invisalign professional and they will know for sure. : ) Hope this helps you.

Oh your welcome it was fun to make the video, hope it helped.

Actually they do make you talk with a lisp for a little while, i noticed a difference for about a week. But then you get used to them and talk normally.

I wasn't told that, usually the whole point of Invisalign is so you DONT have to wear regular metal braces. All i was told was in the end if the results were not perfect then they will take new impressions and send out for more aligners, which is what i had to do at the end. But i never heard of anyone having to get metal braces after invisalign. Good luck deciding.

i always kept my aligners in to drink anything ( but i was usually just drink water) I also did it sometimes with alcohol as well. Good luck with your decision.

well you will always feel them but you def get used to them, almost to a point that when your done with treatment you feel weird again with them off. But it gets easier.

Well I only know information on invisalign that applied to me, but what i can tell you is this.. -The invisalign SHOULD help with your 2 front teeth, as well as crowding but they will have to shave your teeth a little, so the teeth can move (dont worry they dont remove so much tooth enamel where it looks obvious) The invisalign should help with the overbite, it helped with mine. Although im not how severe mine was compared to yours. -As far as i know you'll get pretty good results with the invisalign, but im not exactly sure what the Damon 3 system is? -As long as your teeth are not beyond repair you should be a candidate for invisalign, but schedule a consultation most doctors offer a free one : ) Please understand im not a DMD so the answers im giving are just my opinion and comparing them to my personal exp. Hope this helped you.

I would say i kept my aligners in most of the day, somewhere around 22 hours, some days more some days less but most of the time they were always in. But even now being done with treatment after i have not worn them at all during the day, by the time i put my night ones in i can see my teeth have moved a little but by the next morning they are back to normal.

I had a total of 9 attachments on the top and bottom but fortunately all mine were on the side teeth. But im not gonna lie id be pretty upset if i had needed them on the front teeth. My friend just got invisalign about a month ago and she has the buttons on her front 6 teeth and she was unhappy at first but now is used to them so im guessing you'd get used to them to, yeah you can see the buttons and stuff but its still much better looking than metal braces in my opinion.

In the beginning i was told id always have to wear the night retainer, but when i was done my ortho told me eventually i could do it every other night and then kinda wear it less and less. I wear mine every night and will continue to do so cuz i have a grinding problem and the aligners protect me teeth from the grinding cuz they cause my teeth to glide right over each other, plus i dont want my teeth to move at all after what i paid to get where i am now : )

Well i notice a slight movement but nothing considerable, even with regualr braces you are supposed to wear a retainer for a while to prevent your teeth from moving. No matter what method you use to correct or move your teeth you need some sort of temporary after treatment device that will hold them in place because your gums are like elastic and your teeth will always start to move back to their original position, now im not saying over night im gonna wake up and my teeth will look the way they did before i started treatment, but eventually your teeth will move a little if the correct protocol is not followed.
