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?

Hey, thanks for contacting me. I would say give it time. Each aligner is only able to move a tooth by 0.25mm or rotate a tooth by 1 degree. Within a few months, you will start to see noticeable changes. The aligners will be working, trust me!
