My aligners are here. I knew I would probably have to have attachmets on my upper front teeth, but I wasn't expecting THIS. Now that I see them on my mouth, with the trays on, I know I won't be able to wear them as much as it is required. My problem is only visibility. My job is about talking and meeting a lot of people every day, and psychologically I'm not prepared for it. I want to be honest, not moan about it, it's being my mistake, but I don't know what to do now. Do I have any options?
Answer: Consider #veneers #DrSoftTouch Hello there,Attachments aid in tooth movement during Invisalign treatment. It sounds like attachments are necessary in your case to achieve optimal results. I would recommend that you reconsider and use attachments in your case. Remember that Invisalign counts on you wearing your trays 22 hours per day. If this is impractical for you, then consider veneers. At my office, we do this type of thing all the time and it takes a single appointment to transform your smile. I would recommend going to a cosmetic dentist that can give you a complete evaluation. Always look at before and after photos when choosing your dentist. This is the best way to select a dentist that will leave you with results that you will love. Good luck and I hope this helps.

Answer: Front teeth attachments My Dear, You had the option of changing them while it was in the process and not approved yet . Now that hey have made the aligners it can be done but you might not get the same result and might take longer time that was anticipated. Your Orthodontist can also do refinement which might cost more but they can do new set of aligners.

Answer: Let's Talk Teeth Dear Hansbor,I would speak to you Invisalign provider. As long as you are aware that your treatment may be slightly compromised, I am sure your doctor can fabricate the aligners without the attachments. Attachments are necessary for specific movements, so I would discuss with your doctor what he expects, so you will have realistic expectations of your treatment results. Best,Dr. Jenn

Answer: Visible attachments Speak to your Invisalign provider about your dissatisfaction with the appearance of your front teeth and the trays. I did a case like that a few years ago, and the patient would not wear the trays. So, we did not deliver the case. We started over and got trays without attachments on the front teeth. just talk to your dentist. They won't like it, but they will understand. They can have a new clincheck configured that eliminates those attachments!
