Is invisalign stopping my permanent teeth from growing?

Dear ItsNat,I will do my best to answer your question with the information given. My best advice is to address this with your orthodontist as he has your X-rays and knows the history to better determine if the tooth is erupting or if something else is going on. Invisalign could possibly stop an erupting tooth if it is not creating enough space for the tooth to come in or the tooth is actually hitting off of the Invisalign. If the tooth isn't in yet, it just may be erupting which takes time or something on the inside is preventing it from coming through. Definitely speak to your doctor if you are concerned. I hope that this helps and best of luck!Sincerely,Dr. Jenn

My  name is Dr. Ken Barton. I am an Invisalign Premiere Elite Provider, with several offices in your area. Your question is an excellent one. That being said, I would need both good x-rays, and photos, of the tooth in question.There are several reasons why the tooth in question is not erupting into your mouth. However, without  being able to examine the aforementioned materials, I will not be able to answer your question with any degree of certainity

Sounds like you are in the Invisalign Teen system.  If the chewing surface of the new adult teeth are touching the aligners, you need to get the dentist to take new impressions and get new appliances.  These sorts of corrections are an expected part of treatment in your case.
