Is it possible to perform Invisalign for gaps like mine while minimizing the amount of backward movement? (Photo)

Question

Hi! I had taken an impression of my teeth and have received a simulation of my course of treatment. The thing I like least is the way my teeth would be pulled back, which I am concerned would cause my lips to fall/curve inward and project less. I would prefer this to not happen, is it possible to modify the procedure to prevent this? If not what might other options be?

Nirav Patel, MDS, PhD · Answer

remember end result is not the same as shown in simulation. also your treatment is a partial correction (space present distal to canine) and also proper posterior occlusion will not come so there are chances of relapse.

now come to your concern: approx 2 mm retraction will happen, so it will not change your lips posture.

ADVICE: go for bonded retainer after treatment to prevent relapse.
