Invisalign Possible if a Baby Tooth is Still in Place?
JessmarieJan 26, 2010
I'm 23 years old and my crooked teeth really bother me. My problem is, my upper left canine baby tooth never fell out. It is stuck in place very tightly. X-rays show the adult tooth is in the roof of my mouth behind my front teeth.I considered getting braces as a teen, but I was told the baby tooth would need to be removed and the adult tooth exposed and pulled via chain over a years time. My question is, can I get Invisalign with the baby tooth in place and replace the tooth after treatment?
