Invisalign has caused a lisp, but my work involves speaking on the phone. What can I do?

August 19th, 2010
Q.
It has been one week since fitting the Invisalign, I was advised that the lisp should dissappear within a few days, my job involves a lot of phone call, I find it an effort to talk to customers. I have top and bottom braces, the treatment is more for my front teeth that stick out, lower jaw is fine but was advised that I need both. The only way I can overcome the lisp/speech is to wear the top whilst at work and wear both from evening and at night. Can this work without slowing the process of the treatment. I have become more self conscious wearing both braces.,

Does a consultation involve only talking about one specific treatment?

August 19th, 2010
Q.
If I go to a dentist for a consultation, but I am not sure what braces I want and the dentist offers several kinds, invisalign and inman for example, then what will happen? Will the dentist be willing to tell me about both and whatever else a consultation involves? Or is the consultation just for tha specific treatments like invisalign? Thanking yous,

Can you tell me what a good cleaning routine is with Invisalign?

August 18th, 2010
Q.
I am new to Invisalign now and have 17 upper trays, but this is combined with metal braces on my lower teeth. Wish they could have both been invisalign : ( Anyhow can you tell me what a good cleaning routine should involve? I understand you have to clean your teeth and aligners after each eating? What about every morning and night?,

Does Invisalign treatment require removal of other teeth to make space?

August 17th, 2010
Q.
I am looking into invisalign and from what I can read there does not seem to be any need to have teeth extracted for this treatment. This seems to be the case with metal braces on the other hand from what I have read. Is there any way in which teeth will be affected by this brace treatment, I have heard of something called tooth shaving but am not entirely sure what it is? And is it safe please?,

Can Invisalign make my smile bigger?

August 16th, 2010
Q.
My smile is very small and my teeth at the back are more \’set back\’ than the others so when I smile you can only really see my front teeth, which looks ridiculous. Can invisalign give me a larger, nicer smile in these circumstances?,
