Answer: Not in normal, healthy individuals I have treated hundreds of patients over 40 with Invisalign, and this is not an issue. You need to be sure that you have a healthy dentition first. No orthodontic treatment including Invisalign should ever be started if the patient has periodontal disease. The nature of all orthodontics is to create inflammation in the alveolar bone which allows the teeth to move. Therefore, the teeth always become slightly loose in the process, then the bone remodels; and the teeth become firm again after orthodontic therapy during the retention phase.If you have mal-positioned teeth and want to improve your smile and do not have periodontal disease, you should go forward with Invisalign. Straight teeth are easier to clean making gum disease less likely, function better making wear and fracturing less likely as well. Finally, straight teeth look great!
