Can Invisalign fix all cases?
Invisalign clear aligners are an effective way to correct a variety of different malocclusions (types of misaligned bites). While Invisalign can not correct every scenario, the latest advancements in clear aligner therapy make using removable braces a predictable process for the needs of most of our Ottawa patients.
Can Invisalign be used in severe cases?
In many cases, however, Invisalign works just as well as metal braces for correcting crooked teeth – even severe cases. Invisalign aligners are capable of correcting the same problems and imperfections as traditional braces, including crooked teeth and malocclusions (bite problems).
Can I get Invisalign if I have cavities?
While you can begin Invisalign treatment with existing cavities, most dental providers will advise you to have your cavities filled before they fit you for aligners. There are a few reasons for this. Filling a cavity before treatment allows your tooth to heal before the aligners begin placing pressure on the tooth.
What is too crooked for Invisalign?
Many people think their teeth are “too crooked” for Invisalign to work. Actually, Invisalign is even better at straightening severely crowded teeth than traditional braces. It is difficult to fit a traditional bracket on teeth which are very crooked, overlapped or rotated.
