I wore invisalign for about 1 1/2 years. Prior to the treatment, I had no problems with my teeth at all. I began the treatment at the age of 49. Throughout the treatment I had noticed my teeth pretty loose.and one tooth continually loose. My dentist said that was normal, and not to address it until the treatment is completed. I now have a loose tooth right in front, and need to have it extracted, If I choose to have an implant, That will cost about 4,000 dollars, none of it covered by insurance. I was never told that moving the teeth could compromise the integrity of my teeth. I was told that I was a perfect candidate for invisalign. My question is.. Why don’t dentists tell you the possibilities of what could happen to your teeth? It’s very nice to have straighter teeth, but not at the expense of loosing one! How likely is it that the root of my tooth was going to deteriorate anyway? Again, I had no problems before, not even a cavity.
