Q. Toward the back of my mouth is a missing tooth. I lost this a few years ago but never got it sorted because it was so far back no one could notice it. Now, I want to get the rest of my teeth straightened through invisalign but I am unsure if I can do this seen as I have a missing tooth. Will this not maybe make the teeth mosve into this gap rather than straighten the? Hope to hear from you soon, Rachel.
A. The space could be closed or used to align the teeth as well as being maintained in case of replacement of the missing tooth with a bridge or implant.
