Hello, I am looking for second opinion on my lower teeth crowding. I like my smile and I don't want to make major changes that will effect my face profile. is invisalign a good choice? how does my bite look? Does it look healthy or off? in terms on the space is extraction needed? or IPR? is there other ways to make space? How long should it take approximately? Thank you :)

Answer: Invisalign for lower arch only Hi, your top teeth look good and perfect in line. To just get the lower teeth straightened, it can be challenging. It is possible with side reduction on all lower teeth to allow the crowded teeth to fall in line.It is possible with invisalign.Hope that helps.

Answer: Second Opinion Great questions--the challenge is that you are missing a bicuspid on the one side on the upper arch. That said, a conservative plan would be to expand the arches slightly and slim some of the lower teeth to create some room as well. You could also consider a slight space on the upper side missing the tooth and add tooth structure with composite or porcelain to stabilize. Invisalign would be a great choice--I would guess 12-14 months treatment. All this would be finalized in your clincheck. Good luck!
