I never went through with the Invisalign with this dentist only bc he was too far out for me to travel and the traffic is just miserable. I did, however, take myself and my son for a consultation and he and his staff were really fantastic. He's very personable and they really gear this office towards kids, which helped a lot since my son has way too much energy for a typical office setting. Spent a lot of time w us as well and his office includes a whitening, which you definitely need after these gross trays have discolored your teeth. My current ortho does not include whitening. Drat! Anyway, I wish he was located nearer to us. Great experience!!
Invisalign would work the same as if you were to get braces. We would obtain the proper amount of space and refer to the appropriate dentist for evaluation. While we are gaining the correct amount of space, it is possible to have a fake tooth in the missing tooth space.
You should never get Invisalign treatment without seeing a dentist. The program is set up by a technician that does not have a dental license. If your case is not followed by a dentist, many issues may arise.
Snacking is more difficult while wearing aligners so it is possible to lose weight if you snack throughout the day. If you were to lose weight, you would most likely gain it back after Invisalign treatment is completed
Invisalign can efficiently and effectively bring canines down with proper treatment planning by the doctor and compliance by the patient.
Yes. Invisalign can fix an underbite. Most cases, if severe, will require the use of rubber bands at night to correct an underbite.
