I Don’t Think My Invisalign Treatment Worked As Well As I Expected. What Can Be Done?

January 2nd, 2014

Hello Dr Thorne I hope you can help me with my enquiry as it’s really bugging me and I would like to get it sorted out. I finished my Invisalign full treatment around a month ago and I voiced my concerns to my dentist that I still feel like they are not 5,000 pounds straight and he said to whiten them, and file out some of the ridges. I am still not happy. What can be done? Any advice you can provide me with will really be doing me a big favour. Thanks.

I’ve Been To A Number Of Consultations And They Say I Need Braces To Straighten Just One Tooth, Is This Necessary?

September 30th, 2013

Hello! I think I have a problem regarding orthodontistry. I’ve been to a number of consultations now and every time I’ve been recommended a different type of brace so I don’t know what to do! All I want is one front tooth treating, it’s currently twisted quite badly but it’s the only one that I want treating at the moment. I’ve been recommended for 6 month smiles and Invisalign but I only want the one tooth fixing so I feel these two options are a bit over the top and extreme in the least. Is there anything you can recommend for the treatment of just the one tooth? Thank you!

My Invisalign attachments have come off, but my dentist doesn’t seem to be that concerned.

December 15th, 2011

Hi I’m just starting my Invisalign odyssey, in am about a week into my first tray and two of the attachments have fallen off. i rang the dentists office and the receptionist told me as long as the aligner stayed in it wasn’t a big deal if the attachments had fallen off. Is this right? otherwise whats the point in having the attachments? any help you give on the matter to help me clear it up would be great.

I am worried about the pressure of braces on my teeth, is Invisalign a good option?

October 26th, 2011

how much pressure does invisalign put on the teeth? I had braces when I was younger that were fixed and i have never felt pain like it. I stuck with them for a month but then could not take it any longer and had to have them out. I am now 30 and would really love to have a decent smile, but i have been put off for years by the thought of all that pain again! I though id ask about invisalign, just as it isn’t a fixed brace, so i was hoping that it wouldn’t be as painful. Am i right in thinking this, or are there any other braces that would be even gentler? Im not worried about how long it takes as long as it gets done.

thank you doctor

October 6th, 2011

Hi,

My dentist says i should stop the treatment but i feel that my teeth are almost perfect, what do you suggest?
also what can you do about root absoprtion? should i have the tooth taken out and replaced with an implant and if i did this could i continue with invisalign?
