How Good Are Invisalign Braces?

By Orthodontics Editor, on June 5th, 2009

Hi , i am having a consultation in london with an orthodontist about invisalign. I have a few minor problems with my teeth, the are a little crowded, i do not require any extractions and have healthy teeth. Im 25 and i have no fillings so i think i will be an ideal candidate, my dentist said that veneers would ruin my healthy teeth so this would be a good option. However, i have one composite veneer covering the tooth next to my top front teeth, this was to bring it out further as it was really far back. what will happen if i have invisalign, will the veneer need to be removed to get a true image of the natural shape pf my teeth or replaced and because the tooth is now thicker than the rest will the result make it stick out, or does invisilign work by ensuring the front profile of your teeth is straight. I hope that makes sense. Also if anyone has experience and could tell me how much they payed and how long it took, i have also heard about invisalign express, what is this? and becuse i am a teacher i have to talk all day, how hard will this be if i have both bottom and top trays fitted??
thanks
De

Orthodontics may be the specialty of dentistry that's concerned using the study and treatment of malocclusion (improper bites), which may be a result of tooth irregularity, disproportionate jaw relationships, or both. Orthodontic therapy can focus on dental displacement only, or can deal using the control and modification of facial growth. In the latter case it is better defined as "dentofacial orthopedics". Orthodontic therapy can be carried out for purely aesthetic reasons with regards to improving the general appearance of patients' teeth. Nevertheless, you will find orthodontists who work on reconstructing the whole face rather than focusing exclusively on teeth. Therapy is also frequently prescribed for practical reasons for example providing the patient having a functionally improved bite (occlusion).
