I Have Periodontal Issues and a Tooth That Has Dropped. Would You Recommend Invisalign?

November 29, 2010
Asked By:brookefromoz in Washington, DC

My dentist suggested Invisalign, to correct one of my front teeth that has dropped slightly. My dentist has also insisted that prior to the 'records' appointment for Invisalign's assessment, I need to have a deep cleaning treatment for $326 per quadrant. Do you think this is necessary, and will Invisalign be of any benefit for a tooth that has dropped due to receding gums?
