I’m worried that he tightened teeth have caused trauma to the front tooth, any advice?

April 21st, 2010

Q.
Hi -im hoping u can help or point me in right direction. I am on tray 9 of express treatment and the movement of teeth is fantastic, I have a problem though the last movement was intense on two teeth in particular. These teeth became sore and sensitve. Now though my front tooth has darkened and im worried that it has suffered trauma, my dentist says she could see a slight crack and put some treatment onto tooth. Im worried i have spent a lot of money correcting my \’ok\’ smile to a \’perfect\’ smile to now being concious about a darkened tooth. Which is upsetting. Im just wanting some help could this be caused by invisalign treatment? Im sorry if im not using your website correctly but i just want someone to listen who understands? Any advice would be very much appreciated. Thank you,

A.
