Can I change my Invisalign treatment plan once the trays have already been made? (Photo)

Question

Hey everyone, Im on week 3, tray 3 of my invisalign treatment. I have an overbite and the way my current orthodontist is fixing it is by moving my bottom teeth forward and moving the top back and I don't want to do that. I would much rather move my teeth ( bottom and top ) back to fix my overbite, as I feel my face would look a lot better with them pushed back. So I was wondering if I could/what would happen of I changed my treatment plan now(additional costs, ect.)

Invisalign generates a Clincheck for every case.  It is a three D computer simulation of all of the tooth movements.  I would suggest going over that with you orthodontist.  That will show you what is happening.  It may not be as bad as you perceive.

Hello, you can definitely change your Invisalign treatment plan as part of a mid course correction at no additional cost. Looking at your facial profile I would suggest that your lower teeth are in a reasonable position and that moving your top teeth back would help your appearance. Correcting you overbite (the amount your top teeth bite over you bottom teeth) primarily by moving your top teeth up will help with the gums showing in the smile as well.Your suggestion to move both top and bottom teeth back won't result in correction of the top teeth being further out than the lower ones. It sounds like your orthodontist may be on the right track. I would give it some time to see how it progresses. Good Luck!

Hello,
Yes you can change the movement's  no cost you just need to rescan.  You need to discuss the tooth movement's that you desire with your Orthodontist.  Sometimes what you want to do is not possible.  Once everything is aligned it will look great.  Good Luck!!
