Can You Use Invisalign on the Top Teeth and Metal Braces on the Lower Teeth Together?

October 4, 2010
Asked By:885450anon in Boston

13 months of Invisalign but my lower teeth are still not straight. My lower teeth still have crowding and one of my cylinder teeth needs to be rotated. I also have a deep overbite and not all of lower teeth make contact when I bite down. My upper teeth are fairly straight. most of the consultations I had told me standard metal braces would be best. Is Invisalign refinements a waste of time?
