My orthodontist is not listening to me when I say i have an ill-fitting retainer, please help!

June 30th, 2010
Q.
My orthodontist is not listening to me, I\’ve have told him several times that the retainer doesn\’t sit on my teeth properly and isn\’t holding my teeth in. He insists that it is working but I know it\’s not and i\’ve noticed some of my teeth are moving back to their original positions :( what should i do?,

Have I been given the correct treatment?

June 28th, 2010
Q.
Hello I\’m coming to the end of my invisalign treatment and it has been very easy. However I only have one more aligner to go (I\’m on number 7 of 8) and I can\’t see how the teeth are going to quite move to the required position as shown from in the computer images. There has been good movement but I am concerned that the end result won\’t be what was shown to me. If this is the case, what happens? Incidentally, prior to having the treatment, I saw two specialists. The first gave me an estimated time period of 12-15 months. The one I actually went with didn\’t quote a time period but when the invisalign programme came back it quoted only 6 months (8 aligners). Why the discrepency? Could I have been given sectional treatment instead. Both quotes were within £300. Thank you for your help.,

Hello dr, i have a dental bridge in because i had an accident several years ago, it\’s on my bottom jaw at the back. it\’s completely straight and even though you can\’t see it well it does make my teeth look wonky. Can i have invisalign? or would you not advise it because of the bridge?,

Six Month Smiles failed me. Would Invisalign be a good choice?

June 15th, 2010
Q.
Hello i had the 6 month smiles treatment and it didn\’t work it was because my wisdom teeth came through and i had to have them extracted then because my gums felt sore and my teeth felt very sensitive i stopped the brace treatment. my teeth are all very crooked now and the gaps have gotten larger. i asked my dentist about invisalign but he didn\’t tell me much about it, do you think it could be good for me?,
