I started a treatment with Invisalign but in the first days I had very strong feeling of vomiting and I stopped to wear because I am afraid that it will affect my health.Just now I realised that I signed the contract without giving me opportunity to read this and even I don't have my own copy.I contacted the dental centre this week to send me the copy but they don't want to do this.I worry a lot because I don't know what I signed.My doctor doesn't care what's happening.What can I do?

Answer: If Invisalign treatment has started, don't expect a full refund
Invisalign aligners can maintain a space, in the front or the back, to make future treatment more ideal. This is common when planning an implant or bridge.
I guess its supply and demand. But east coast dentists charge more than west coasters. You may have to look around and see if there are more afordable ones,but remember the cheaper isnt always better. Get a provider that has done a lot of cases to be safe.
Another concern with swimming with them in is if you take in a lot of water. The aligners COULD trap the chemically treated water around the teeth and over time may affect the enamel. Swimmers teeth is common with competitive swimmers and could be worsened with aligners. Maybe.
