Can I Have Invisalign Treatment Even Though Some Teeth Are Missing?

June 19th, 2014

Hi there, I was wondering if you could shed some light on my situation. I was involved in an accident a couple of years ago and I ended up losing three of my teeth. I would like Invisalign braces but will they still work even though I don’t have a full set of teeth? I can’t afford to get them straightened AND have the missing ones replaced, so which do you think I should go for? Thanks.

Are Missing Back Molars A Problem When Considering Invisalign?

February 4th, 2014

Hello Dr Kumar. I just wondered if you could tell me whether having missing back molar impacts on the success rates of Invisalign? I’m not even sure if I’m suitable yet, and I’m due for a consultation at the dental suite next week but I really want Invisalign. I don’t think I will be happy with anything else that they have to offer me. Are missing teeth a huge problem with this treatment? I’m hoping the aligners will actually close the gap caused by my missing teeth. Many thanks. It would be great to hear from you so I can move on with this matter.
