Tooth discomfort following Invisalign has been found to be down to root resorption. Will I lose my tooth?

December 6th, 2010
Q.
I have completed two years of invisalign treatment and have recently began to feel discomfort in my front upper tooth. Closer inspection and an x ray has revealed that I have root loss leaving a jagged edge,the nerve is alive. However my invisalign orthodontist can not tell me anything about root resorption with any clarity. What would you advise? Will I lose my tooth?,
