Will My Wisdom Teeth Affect My Treatment?

May 8th, 2014

I began the invisalign treatment a few months ago but my wisdom teeth have started to erupt. My dentist has said one of them has to be removed because of how it’s growing. So with this in mind, I’m really worried that it’s going to affect my treatment. It was going so well and I feel it’s all going to go wrong now. Can you please try and ease these fears for me? I’m due to see my orthodontist in 2 weeks but frightened about what he’s going to tell me.

I Broke My Invisalign Retainer. Will My Teeth Be Fine Without It?

May 7th, 2014

Hi Dr Raha. Is there any chance you could help me? I broke my Invisalign retainer recently and I’m afraid to tell my orthodontist. He’s quite scary. Will my teeth be okay if I just leave it? I know your supposed to see the treatment through to the end but my teeth are fine and straight enough now. What should I do? I don’t want to go back!

Would Invisalign Fix My Crooked Teeth, Or Am I Too Old?

May 6th, 2014

Hi! When I was 13 I had slightly crooked teeth and had braces to straighten them out. My dentist at the time never mentioned that I’d have to wear a retainer afterwards, so I didn’t. I’m 27 now and they are slightly crooked AGAIN and I hate the way they look. Would Invisalign be able to sort my problem out, or am I too old? Also how much would Invisalign cost for a situation like mine? Thank you.

6 Month Smiles Or Invisalign – Which Would Be Best For Me?

May 6th, 2014

When I was 17, I had fixed braces but I wasn’t keen on them at all. I now have front bottom teeth that overlap (I’m 28 now) and I’m not sure why this has occurred but obviously I want to sort it out! I don’t want to spend a lot of money, and I’ve heard that 6 Months Smiles is a cheaper option than Invisalign – but which treatment would be best for me? Also, are consultations free, and do they include teeth whitening? Thanks in advance.

Can I Have Invisalign Treatment At The Same Time As Having Periodontal Treatment?

April 30th, 2014

Hi, what is your opinion on receiving aligners at the same time as having treatment for gum disease? I want to surprise my family when I visit them in Australia in 6 months time. I’ve always had a misaligned smile with large gaps and I think this is why my gums are in such poor health. I’m already being treated for my gums and looking for a dentist who would be willing to supply me with a brace system at the same time. Do you know of any? I live in Shrewsbury. Thanks for your time!

Am I Cleaning My Invisalign Aligners Properly?

April 25th, 2014

Hi Dr. Thorne. When using Invisalign, my teeth discolour slightly. This happens over the two weeks that I wear the aligners, despite my cleaning them as the orthodontist recommends (with washing up liquid). Is this normal, or should I be doing something different? Thank you.

Is Teeth-Shaving Safe?

April 25th, 2014

My dentist has informed me that if I want to have Invisalign aligners, I will need to get some of my teeth shaved away. I am quite scared by the prospect as I have heard that it can cause sensitive teeth and damaged teeth. It it safe? Thanks.
