Should I wait till my brace treatment is over? Or just get the root canal done now?

Q. Hello! I had a filling placed last week but now my dentist reckons i need root canal treatment and i\’m currently using invisalign. Should i wait till my brace treatment is over do you think? or just get the root canal done?,

A. It is very difficult to say. Having dental treatment during Invisalign treatment can affect the fit of the aligners meaning that you may require a mid-course correction to make new aligners to fit around the newly treated tooth. I would recommend you consult your Invisalign dentist. Best Wishes
