Is it possible that Invisalign caused my enamel to wear?

October 17, 2018
Asked By:cinkarat in Queens, NY

I started Invisalign 15 weeks ago and believe it has torn down my enamel. My teeth are stained as well and they have a clear hue towards the bottom - my dentist said it is my enamel starting to wear down. One doctor said this was common due to my bite being corrected. Is there anything I can do to reverse this? Can I still whiten my teeth?
