I grind my teeth at night so would this mean that I am not suitable for Invisalign?

December 16th, 2010

Q.
Hello. I wear a night guard at the present time for a condition where I grind my teeth when sleeping. I have had this since it began over two years, when I started a new job. Stress has been deemed the likely cause. But now I am having a look at these Invisalign aligners and am thinking they would be a good solution to my problem with teeth that are crooked to a very small degree, but a noticeable degree for me. Can you tell me what implications this would have on me wearing a night guard? Would I not be suitable. Hope to hear from you soon to my email.,
