I have multiple gaps both upper and lower and have a slight overbite, but the issue is the gaps. I am concerned about lip and face shape changes after pushing top teeth back and closing all gaps. Will the distance between my nose and top lip become longer, or will my lips get flatter? What about my cheeks or chin? I am a 37 year old female and am worried how my look may change. I was told that it wouldn't be noticeable, but I don't see how that's possible if you are closing so many gaps!

Answer: Facial changes are usually unnoticable with Invisalign
The fee for express is lower because there are fewer aligners used and the case is not complex. Full cases for Invisalign allow for a few mid-course corrections, but Express does not. If changes are needed, there will likely be a fee.
The decision is up to each office.
Its a nice makeover to have your teeth straightened and whitened llike you've seen on Extreme makeover shows on TV. Straight white teeth are very youthfull and you'll love the result.
Invisalign aligners can act as bleach trays to whiten teeth. They can also do the same action to hold onto beverages consumed while wearing them. Anything other than water will have a different pH and have other things such as acids that would break down tooth structure.
