I’ve Chipped My Tooth. Will It Harm My Invisalign Treatment?

May 20th, 2014
Q.

Great. I managed to chip my front tooth when playing football at the weekend. My aligner still fits but I am worried that this may in some way harm the treatment. Will it? I have my appointment at the dentist coming up this Friday anyway so I will ask then but I would appreciate to hear your opinion. Thanks.

It’s Been 3 Months And I’m Seeing No Results. What Should I Do?

May 20th, 2014
Q.

When I visited my orthodontist for a consultation he did stress that my teeth needed a lot of straightening, I have suffered from a bad bite for many years. Anyway, after drawing up a treatment plan he still thought that Invisalign would help me. However, 3 months down the line and I’m not seeing ANY results. I feel like he’s just told me it will work to get money out of me. I don’t know what to do because surely I should have seen some differences by now! What do you think I should do?

After 3 Weeks Of Invisalign I’m Still In Pain, Is Something Wrong With My Aligners?

May 19th, 2014
Q.

Hello there, I’m worried about my aligners. I’m on my 3rd week of using Invisalign aligners but I’m still experiencing a lot of pain around my top front teeth. I have been told by my dentist that it’s normal to experience pain at first but I’m taking painkillers and they don’t even seem to help! Do I need to be worried, is something wrong? I know that because they hurt, the treatment must be working but the pain is unbearable and I just want to keep taking them out. Thanks for taking the time to read this.

My Aligners Are Painful To Wear. What Can I Do To Stop The Pain?

May 16th, 2014
Q.

I have just started wearing Invisalign and it’s a little painful to wear at the moment. Do you know what I could do to stop the pain? How long will this go on for, does it get any better? My orthodontist warned me not to take them off too much but I’m finding it hard to wear them all the time. Please help me with this.

Which Treatment Is Best To Close A Gap Between My Front Teeth?

May 15th, 2014
Q.

Hi Dr Thorne. I am 25 years old, and since last year I’ve noticed a gap between my front teeth, which I’m really embarrassed about. I no longer smile on photos because it just looks horrific. Please tell me, is there a treatment that can fix the gap? I’d love to get my smile back to how it was before, as it’s making me very miserable at the moment. Thank you in advance.

Will Invisalign Stop Me From Clenching My Teeth?

May 15th, 2014
Q.

My dentist office recently recommended Invisalign as a treatment to straighten my slightly misaligned teeth. They told me that with this treatment it will stop my clenching once my teeth are aligned. Is this true or would it be best to just keep using dental guards when I sleep? My teeth have only a slight misalignment that most people wouldn’t even notice.

What Is The Best Treatment To Fix My Cross-Bite?

May 15th, 2014
Q.

Hello. I have a mild cross-bite. It’s been bothering me for some time now. It’s only really noticeable when I smile but I grind my teeth in my sleep, which obviously won’t help the matter! I think it’s making my bite worse! I’m looking into braces to help the situation, is there anything that you can recommend before I approach an orthodontist? I don’t really know what to ask for. Is there any brace that is especially for a cross-bite? Thank you!

What Are Aligners Made Of?

May 8th, 2014
Q.

Hi Dr. Akere, I’m wondering if you can help me out. I want braces and Invisalign seem like the best choice, but I’m one of these people that seems to be allergic to everything! What are aligners made of, and do they contain any harmful materials? I really don’t want a bad reaction in my mouth! Thank you.
