Will My Wisdom Teeth Affect My Treatment?

May 8th, 2014

I began the invisalign treatment a few months ago but my wisdom teeth have started to erupt. My dentist has said one of them has to be removed because of how it’s growing. So with this in mind, I’m really worried that it’s going to affect my treatment. It was going so well and I feel it’s all going to go wrong now. Can you please try and ease these fears for me? I’m due to see my orthodontist in 2 weeks but frightened about what he’s going to tell me.

How can I correct the minor protrusion I have?

August 23rd, 2012

Hi, I am 30 years old. I had fell down when I was a kid and the impact broke my front 2 teeth (top) slightly. This also resulted in my teeth structure getting slightly protruded. Its not too protruded though. 4-5 years back I got the broken teeth corrected. This was done by shaping the 2 broken teeth and using a ceramic cap placed on top of the shaped teeth. My top 2 wisdom tooth has also been removed last year. All my teeth are perfectly shaped and aligned. I would now like to correct the minor top protrusion. Please suggest a suitable mode of treatment for the same. I do not want to undergo a painful procedure. Can Invisalign be used to correct this minor protrusion.

Will my wisdom tooth affect my Invisalign treatment?

July 23rd, 2012

Hello,
I had a consultation with a private dentist about 7 months ago about getting Invisalign. I am 17 years old and although I was offered metal braces on the NHS I have managed to save enough money to get Invisalign instead.
Everything was fine during the consultation and I am due back in a few weeks to start the process and have impressions made but my wisdom tooth has started to come through in a strange way, well not straight and is quite sore. I could go to the emergency dentist to have it taken out ASAP or do you think I should talk to the dentist doing my Invisalign and delay it a bit? I don’t want the wisdom tooth to affect my Invisalign treatment.

Should I have my wisdom teeth taken out before Invisalign treatment?

January 26th, 2012

hi there

my wisdom teeth have started to come through and they are pushing my front teeth together, to a point where they look like they are going to overlap. I obviously don’t want this to happen, so I was just wondered what my course of action would be? Not all of the wisdom teeth have come through, so should I wait until they do? and should I have the wisdom teeth that have come through taken out before I have my invisalign braces? thank you

I am in the middle of my Invisalign treatment but am soon to have my wisdom teeth taken out, will these affect the brace?

April 27th, 2011

Hi I have an Invisalign consultation booked for next month. Before that I have a six monthly check up with my dentist. I am slightly worried because the last few times I have been he has been monitoring my wisdom teeth which he says will need to come out at some point. Could there be issues with wisdom teeth coming through/being removed and the Invisalign treatment? should I tell the Invisalign dentist?
