On tray 6, had pain, dentist did a scan, said it must be sinus swelling(the tooth is up into the palate). Went back to tray 5 for a week, was fine. Tried tray 6 again, same problem, did a scan, sinus infection, got meds, everything was totally fine. Tried tray 6 again, and now there is swelling in my face - in my smile line and my teeth are quite painful. I do t have a runny nose. And Im also working in Chile right now. Please advise
My dentist mentioned to me that she lost two of my trays, which are being re-ordered. After these two, I have three left before I finish my full set! She said that, on her software, these three are indicated as brown (versus blue) and are only necessary if there's further spacing issues. Just wanted to fact-check this and make sure that I'm getting all the trays I need. My teeth seem decently straight, but I got Invisalign for my bite. Should I ask her for those trays? Thanks!
I fell which resulted in a horrible cut lip. I could not put my invisalign on without my lip starting to bleed even though it was not deep enough for stictches. Its finally healed and I'm ready to start again but when I went to put the tray i was on back in the bottom was super tight it was painful. I had move to a older version of my tray because it hurt so bad. I want to think its because my teeth moved back while my lip healed. is there anything I can do? Or do I just have to take it from here?
I was fitted with my first set of Invisalign trays 2 days ago, I want to stop the treatment. My dentist didn't inform me that I would have brackets on the front of my teeth, and she didn't show me the final 3D rendering of my teeth until after she ordered trays. I was billed in full up front - $2000 insurance, $3500 out of pocket. Can I recoup any of this expense? I know that the up-front costs for Invisalign are significant, but I won't be going to any more doctor visits or getting any more trays.
I was a GREAT INVISALIGN patient for the first 10 trays, I wore them as I was supposed to and kept up wih my appointments etc. My 11th tray was very difficult to put in/out (more so than the others) and painful so I started getting less diligent. I then left the state for 2 months, and forgot my trays at home. I'm back, I wanted to get back on track but #11 doesn't fit... I can't find Tray #10 but have all my others. I'm SO EMBARRASSED to call the doctor, it's mortifying. Advise please?
He cannot open his mouth very wide. It seems like his jaw is not allowing his mouth to open completely, but he does not have any pain or clicking noises, etc. His dr. contacted Invisalign and they were unable to comment or give any recommendations. So, he's now on a prescription muscle relaxer of some sort, warm compresses on his jaw and soft diet. Has been instructed to use the Invisalign trays at night only. None of this has helped at all. We are both very concerned at this point.
Using invisalign to correct bite and TMJ. About halfway through and bottom teeth done. 2-3 weeks ago when started first aligner that was top only got severe vertigo that has not gone away. Should I wait to continue or move to next aligner in hopes that as bite improves vertigo goes away?
