After 25 years of wearing an upper partial, I am finally getting implants. But my dentist told me that over the years my four bottom incisors have grown upwards and are now too long. He suggested invisalign. I never got a chance to ask him about it because I was out of it with the anesthesia for the implant. I just wanted to know how that works.

If you go to an Invisalign provider that has done many cases like this then I would think that is the best route to go. We dont have much to go on without some pictures and bite assesment of your teeth. Im NOT sure that your Orthodontist is correct at all. Try to find a Premier povider in...
You should check with your dentist to see if there is any thing wrong with your trays.
The dentist may need to take a new impression and send for mid course correction.
Hi- I would recommend that you wear your invisalign trays about 21-22 hours a day and then switch them every 2 weeks. If you are wearing them only 18 hours a day, then I would recommend switching aligner trays every 2 1/2 weeks.
It is important to talk with your invisalign doctor...
