Can Invisalign Correct a Misaligned Bite?

Sometimes it is simply minor tooth movement that allows everything to line up.  It is possible that Invisalign is the perfect solution to your situation.

Arch expanders dont work well for adults because the bone is harder and the palate is fused. Invisalign can tip the teeth outword and correct the edge to edge bite that you have given it falls within the parameters.

If you want bite correction, Invisalign is NOT a good option.  If you simply want to straighten your teeth, Invisalign is perfect. 

I support the use of Invisalign by general (cosmetic) dentists for tooth alignment, however, patients are being misled if they are told that Invisalign can replace what braces, an expander or jaw surgery can accomplish in terms of bite correction. 

Do your research and make an informed decision about your treatment plan.  With Invisalign, you may find a more comfortable bite, but the reality that it will correct things fully is unlikely.

Best of luck.
