Is it necessary to extract teeth for Invisalign to work?

Q. Is the extraction of teeth ever necessary with Invisalign? My teetha re quite crowded and I am worried that if I want to go with invisible braces then I will have to get a tooth removed.

A. Not always in some cases we extract one tooth but it is quite rare you need to have your teeth assessed so the space and crowding can be calculated.
