I am missing some teeth, would this effect the Invisalign treatment?

Q. Hi I am missing a few teeth after an incident a couple of years ago. Would Invisalign still work even though I don’t have all the teeth I should have? and do you reckon straitening my teeth or replacing the missing ones is more important, i’ve benn doing some sums and I don’t think i have the dollar for both. thanks,

A. Invisalign can work if you have teeth missing. Sometimes it is beneficial to have spaces as it allows teeth to most past each other unimpeded. As to whether straightening the teeth or replacing the missing ones goes, it is personal choice!
