Invisalign: Invisalign is one of many methods (along with conventional braces) to correct the position of teeth. Consult with an Orthodontist to find out what can and cannot be done and what is the best method for you at this time.

Retainers: It's the bane of Orthodontic Practice, the patient that does not follow retainer instructions to the letter. All patients have built in rebound, the body's tendency to reestablish the malocclusion. Additional treatment may be prudent. The choice of appliance should be guided by a qualified Orthodontist. Get the best care hoe can, and follow instructions to the letter.

Possibly: Invisalign may be able to treat your teeth but not all cases are appropriate for Invisalign treatment.the only way to know if you are a good candidate for Invisalign is to see an Invisalign provider.

See an orthodontist: Any disorder in the alignment of teeth is corrected by orthodontic treatment which includes Invisalign or traditional dental braces. An orthodontist is a dental specialist who has received three years of additional training and experience in this field. See an orthodontist for evaluation and treatment.
