Q.
Hi Adam, i have been wearing invisaline braces for over 3 years now, iv been unfortunate with my teeth not moving as to plan so im on my 3 rd set now, im currently on my 3rd to last retainer on the top, my lower one’s finished over 6 months ago, i got told by my dentist to carry on wearing my last bottom aligner at night which i have been doing, unfortunately at the weekend my bottom brace snapped in half, with it being used for over 6 months this did not suprsie me as it was discoloured and not very nice to put in and probably brittle with age, upon contacting my dentist he said i would have to pay over £80 to replace! i find this ridiculous with the amount of money i have already paid and can’t afford this. with me being five weeks off completion i suggested taking the impression for the final retainers but he said this is not possible, i am very disapointed with the service and will not be recomended invisaline to anyone and infact making people aware that the service is not good atal with lots of hidden costs,(ie end retainers to pay for!!) also in the end i have been told one of my teeth will have to get a veneer crown as one of my tooth is not moving down atal this is because it is already a veneer and the retaining pieces that get fused to the veneer kept breaking off, this new veneer crown he quoted over £500, at the end of the day this is not my fault i have been to the dentist to get invisaline, i get the quote see what my teeth will look like in the end and then all this comes out now. i am not happy and expect an answer to these problems. thanks for your time.
