Are there any drawbacks to Invisalign?!


Question: I was thinking about getting Invisalign braces in fall; I was wondering if there are any drawbacks to them or anything I should know before I may be a candidate?

Also, I was wondering if you get your molds the same day as your consultation?

i havnt gotten mine yet, however i know someone who has she told me her mouth hurt so bad for the first week and it was hard to talk, as far as i know they dont have the molds ready till after the consultation because they have to construct the following sizes.

No, you cannot get you molds in the same day. You have to be checked by an orthodontist to see if you are a proper candidate. If you are, you may get started on your treatment on your second visit, and will get your first mold in place on your third visit.

One thing they don't tell you is that Invisalign braces do not move the root of the tooth - you will be wearing your last mold at night for the rest of your life. How old are you? If you are in your teens, forget about the vanity and get regular braces. You'll still have to wear a retainer for a while, but you'll have less chance of your teeth moving back to their original position. Invisalign is pricier and better suited to adults.
