My Teeth Have Relapsed, What Can Be Done?

August 5th, 2014

Hi Dr Thorne. I had Invisalign treatment 2 years ago, but I don’t think I wore the aligners for as long as I should have, I mean I would take them out quite often when I probably shouldn’t have, and I didn’t wear the retainers every night. My teeth weren’t really that bad but still enough of a problem for me to have braces to straighten them. I think my teeth have relapsed slightly, as there is a slight overlap between my top 2 teeth. What can be done about this?

Is Invisalign Right For Me? Or Should I Consider Another Brace?

June 10th, 2013

Hi, I am 15 and I have had braces before. I was given treatment for my overbite,however I lost my retainer and my teeth moved back and I don’t like the way they look anymore, it’s only my top teeth and there’s only a few teeth out of place so do you think invisalign is the right treatment? i have heard that it’s pretty expensive however so what’s the maximum price you think I would have to pay? are there any other options you think i should consider? i want something that you can’t see, i was already picked on for wearing my other train track braces.Would i be able to get help with the NHS due to my age? I’m not sure how i’m supposed to go about getting them fixed. thanks for your time.

How will not wearing his Invisalign braces affect my husband?

October 24th, 2012

I have a question regarding wear of the Invisalign braces. My partner is currently undergoing Invisalign treatment and is on his fourth set of braces. It seems to be going well so far and he wears them for the recommended 20 hours a day so far. The problem is that he is going on holiday soon for three weeks and he has told me he doesn’t plan on wearing them much as he is on holiday and wants to enjoy himself. I am worried that this will set back all the good work that has been done so far? I think that he will wear them, but just not as much. Obviously I am not happy about this as the treatment has been expensive and it could reverse all the treatment he has had so far. Could you please advise me on this so that I can tell him of the repercussions of not wearing the braces properly? Thank you

Can Invisalign correct my relapsed teeth?

July 4th, 2012

Hi there,
I wore a metal brace about 15 years ago for about two year. I can’t really remember the exact problems but I know that my lower jaw jutted out more than my upper jaw. I also had a fang tooth growing above the other teeth.
I didn’t wear a retainer after the treatment and I have noticed a shifting in my teeth from a really good position to some of my teeth moving around .
I wondered if wearing Invisalign for a period of time might help move them back and then perhaps I would have to wear a retainer for a bit?
