I have very slight relapse will invisalign work?
August 24th, 2009
Q. Hi Dr Li I have very slight relapse of my front teeth following orthodontic treatment when i was younger. My 2 front teeth used to be perfectly in line, they have now shifted slightly (probably less than 2mm). Is there a way of using invisalign to correct this. Also would it cost less as the discrepancy is so minor. Would seem excessive to pay thousands to correct this but it is something that bothers me. Many thanks
A. Hello,
Invisalign sounds ideal to correct this relapse type of movement that has occured since you had braces when you were younger. If only the front few teeth need to be moved I would recommended that you have the Anterior Case as opposed to the Full Case which is set by Invisalign. This will reduce the costs for you but still ensure that you do not compromise the effectiveness of the treatment. I would speak to the dentist providing Invisalign to give you an estimate as to what fee they would charge for this.
Kind regards
Dr Simon Li
