Q.
Hi, I am 30 years old. I had fell down when I was a kid and the impact broke my front 2 teeth (top) slightly. This also resulted in my teeth structure getting slightly protruded. Its not too protruded though. 4-5 years back I got the broken teeth corrected. This was done by shaping the 2 broken teeth and using a ceramic cap placed on top of the shaped teeth. My top 2 wisdom tooth has also been removed last year. All my teeth are perfectly shaped and aligned. I would now like to correct the minor top protrusion. Please suggest a suitable mode of treatment for the same. I do not want to undergo a painful procedure. Can Invisalign be used to correct this minor protrusion.

Hi
Yes, it sounds as if Invisalign can correct this minor protrusion and it isn’t painful. You will need to have an x-ray of this area to confirm the health of the teeth and their roots first. Alternatively if it is the two capped teeth that are protruding, these ceramic crowns (caps) could be replaced with more aligned ones.
I would recommend a consultation with a cosmetic dentist who has Invisalign experience
Good luck
