Q. Hello! I had a filling placed last week but now my dentist reckons i need root canal treatment and i\’m currently using invisalign. Should i wait till my brace treatment is over do you think? or just get the root canal done?,
A. It is very difficult to say. Having dental treatment during Invisalign treatment can affect the fit of the aligners meaning that you may require a mid-course correction to make new aligners to fit around the newly treated tooth. I would recommend you consult your Invisalign dentist. Best Wishes

Q. I accidentally put in one of my old trays, i got them mixed up and now my teeth are very painful. What should i do? Does this mean that i have to start my treatment from the beginning? I\’ve tried placing in the trays that i was supposed to be using but now they don\’t fit :(,
A. Hello, If you put in your previous set of aligners just carry on wearing them and book an appointment to see your provider.Your treatment might take a few more weeks longer then it was planned. The provider will decide whether you need mid-course correction or you can just carry on with the originally planned aligners.
