I really want invisilign. I've had braces for 3 years now, and I'm supposed to have them for another 2.
I'm having a surgery to fix my underbite this summer, as it's pretty much too bad to fix with braces.
I was born with a cleft lip and palate, so my teeth really don't look so great, though they look MUCH better than they did a few years ago.
They're kind of lined up in general now, but they're very misshapen. They definitely need a lot more lining up, but not to the point where I don't even think an invisilign could be made to cover them.
I really want this, but I don't think I want to mention it to my mom if there's no possibility that it could happen.
Does invisilign work for cases as severe as mine?
My bottom teeth, I know it would work for, they're in preeetty good condition.
My top teeth are the problem.
Also, I still have a baby tooth, but the orthodontists just plan to leave it in there until it falls out, which could be 2-20 years. (i don't have a permanent one to push it out)
So after my surgery, do you think I could switch?
thanks!
Frinx - I'd say you could, but it would take longer than 2 years, maybe even 3 to 5 years because your condition of your teeth seem to be hard to move. You have to be REALLY responsible, I mean it, if you just keep it off for one night it could go back to the way it was. So, yeah, you could be qualified to wear invisilign if you are patient and responsible.
ReplyDeletesmylex99 - You won't be able to until after you've had your surgeries as Invisalign retainers do not have any hooks for wiring or banding you shut after your surgery has been completed. Otherwise, consult with your orthodontist.
