Depends: Your craze lines will tend to get worse over time regardless of any dentistry just like a crack on a windshield. That said if the invisaline improves the bite and distributes the forces more evenly over more teeth, and essential protective tooth separation by guidance of your canines, then i believe it can help to stabilize the teeth from increasing the severity of the craze lines.

No: Craze lines are a natural part of teeth that develop from normal wear. Invisalign should not effect them.

Not at all: Craze lines are caused by trauma 9contact sports, chewing on ice or hard candy, etc. Invisalign will not affect the craze lines. You should be seeing a qualified orthodontist for your tooth movement, and then your restorative dentist for rx (perhaps veneers) of the craze lines after tooth movement completed and stabilized. Expect about 41% improvement w invisalign, 90% w braces.

Invisalign is safe: Invisalign is one of the most gentle orthodontic treatments available, because it fits the tooth like a glove, thus distributing the forces moe evenly over a larger surface area of the tooth; and the velocity of tooth movement can be slowed to meet the patient's individual needs and circumstances. The microfractures you describe in your teeth should not worsen with invisalign treatment.
