Question about old implant (26 yrs, female) - would braces/Invisalign be only way to address this?

jazgabrielaOct 9, 2022
Hi. I had an implant placed years ago but never received the crown due to being out of money at the time. Now that I am doing better financially, I decided I was going to have the crown placed on my implant but now an adjacent tooth is slightly tilted into the space where the implant is so my dentist is recommending invisalign ($4k) to straighten out that one tooth (all my other teeth are perfectly straight since I had braces as a child). Would invisalign/braces be the only way to address this?

The best time to complete Cosmetic Dental Bonding would be prior to treatment, or at the end of a series of aligners or just before retainers. Once impressions are taken, and aligners are made, and if treatment is completed, the aligners would no longer fit.

Invisalign will most likely work for your case. But, will need more detailed records to confirm. Good luck!
