December 19th, 2011
Q.

hi, what is the easiest way to remove your invisalign brace? I’ve had mine for about a week and it’s really hard to take out when I want to clean it or eat and I’ve cut my gums on it as well. I obviously don’t want to make it too loose at it wouldn’t be very good at treating my teeth but is there anything you could recommend such as a skill or technique? thanks for your time

I have just moved on to wearing Essix retainers but I think they might be pushing against my filling as it is really painful.

April 27th, 2011
Q.

I finished Invisalign treatment in March 2011 and was fitted with an Essix retainer which was a well fitted. I had a filling replaced on the top teeth and it felt slightly thicker than the mold. Since then I have been in constant pain and the teeth appear to have moved. I now have numbness and swelling to my upper jaw and it looks as if the incisor has pulled down. I have been advised by NHS Direct Dental Nurse to remove retainer as I have an appointment with my orthodontist in 4 days. Will another course of invisalign correct this? Could you please advise?

A.

Should I get Invisalign or Damon Braces?

February 2nd, 2011
Q.
I am trying to decide whether to get damon braces or invisalign. I qualify for both as my teeth are a bot crooked. But I am not 100% sure about invisalign because I think the aligner would feel uncomfortable. I like invisalign because there are no brackets but I like damon braces because they are ceramic and can be quicker. Can you help me decide what to do?,

I’m worried that he tightened teeth have caused trauma to the front tooth, any advice?

April 21st, 2010
Q.
Hi -im hoping u can help or point me in right direction. I am on tray 9 of express treatment and the movement of teeth is fantastic, I have a problem though the last movement was intense on two teeth in particular. These teeth became sore and sensitve. Now though my front tooth has darkened and im worried that it has suffered trauma, my dentist says she could see a slight crack and put some treatment onto tooth. Im worried i have spent a lot of money correcting my \’ok\’ smile to a \’perfect\’ smile to now being concious about a darkened tooth. Which is upsetting. Im just wanting some help could this be caused by invisalign treatment? Im sorry if im not using your website correctly but i just want someone to listen who understands? Any advice would be very much appreciated. Thank you,
A.
