My ortho said she filled in a missing tooth for another patient with the 3M stuff (the same stuff that is used to do the buttons/attachments) and she said it wore away. I asked her to do it for me anyway and see how long it stays. I just started my first tray and the stuff is still there so far. Does any one have any other recommendations? Should I bring my aligners to my general dentist and see if she can fill the missing teeth in? I have 2 missing top teeth and it is noticeable when I smile.
