Would Invisalign be suitable for my kind of case?

April 22nd, 2010
Q.
im wondering if invisalign is right for me. my 2 top front teeth are straight but my lateral incisor on both side are abit pushed back and the rest are bassically fine, alittle crooked…. My bottom teeth is where the problem is at, my 1 central incisor is pushed out and is over lapping my other central incisor abit and my lateral incisor is beind the central incisor touching it abit, then my canine is over lapin my lateral incisor in the front abit, so if you could picture it, my 3 teeth on the bottom on one side are \”overlapping\” eachother and they are all touching and my first premolar\’s on both sides are pushed in siverly pushed in… just wondering if invisalign is good for me, i dont think that the bottoms are right for invisalign but mabey i could get invisalign for my top teeeth and braces for the bottom, but idunno if that would work, i would like to hear you opinion,

Will having a filling affect my invisalign treatment?

April 21st, 2010
Q.
My normal dentist has told me that I am going to need to get a filling but I am half way through my Invisalign treatment. I am concerned that this may have an impact on my treatment and make the aligner not fit properly but can you tell me if this is the case?,

I’m worried that he tightened teeth have caused trauma to the front tooth, any advice?

April 21st, 2010
Q.
Hi -im hoping u can help or point me in right direction. I am on tray 9 of express treatment and the movement of teeth is fantastic, I have a problem though the last movement was intense on two teeth in particular. These teeth became sore and sensitve. Now though my front tooth has darkened and im worried that it has suffered trauma, my dentist says she could see a slight crack and put some treatment onto tooth. Im worried i have spent a lot of money correcting my \’ok\’ smile to a \’perfect\’ smile to now being concious about a darkened tooth. Which is upsetting. Im just wanting some help could this be caused by invisalign treatment? Im sorry if im not using your website correctly but i just want someone to listen who understands? Any advice would be very much appreciated. Thank you,

A question about ceramic and sapphire brackets..

April 20th, 2010
Q.
I would like ceramic or sapphire brackets but would like to know if there is any chance of the aluminium leeching out whilst wearing them. (Also, hopefully the glass won\’t contain any lead) Many thanks.

April 20th, 2010
Q.
if you\’re going out with friends to socialise and forget to take your trays out and happen to drink some wine and maybe a few beers will this affect the process of the invisalign treatment? or will it stain them? thanks.,
