Doctor’s answers

Question
Answer Header & Date
Answer Snippet
Can I get composite veneers with my overbite?
Upper eight
Dec 19, 2019
Your upper teeth are the one’s that show in your smile.  The more you do, the better the cosmetic result, but the upper eight will certainly do the job.
Would Invisalign fix my lower crowding and lower jaw/bite issue? Will I require a lower tooth extraction
Clinch Check will answer the question
Dec 19, 2019
With Invisalign, a Clin Check, or virtual computer generated simulation is done first.  You will know from that if a tooth needs to be removed.  I highly doubt removal will be necessary.  
Is it safe to get Invisalign without damaging/cracking my front crowns?
Totally safe
Dec 19, 2019
There is no way Invisalign will crack your crowns.  your dentist will know not to put attachments on these teeth.
Treating TMD while improving facial profile using Invisalign, fillers or other methods?
It’s complicated.
Dec 19, 2019
The answer is that it depends.  Are your lower front teeth crowded?  Do you have tori?  Are your teeth worn?  Do you clench and grind?  Do you have sleep apnea?  All of these questions must be considered.
Do your practices normally give all the aligners to Clear Correct patients? And how often are the usual
You can transfer your case to a new dentist
Nov 16, 2019
It is best to be monitored to make sure the teeth are tracking properly.  There is often a reduction in tooth structure to help them fit.  Easy to find a new Clear Correct doctor in a new city to finish the case.
When Should I Start Seeing Invisalign Results?
It depends
Nov 16, 2019
Each Aligner has a small rotation or movement programmed it.  Some teeth are not planned to move with a special aligner.
Hole where my attachment once was – Besides getting a filling, what’s the best option?
Easy fix
Nov 16, 2019
Bonding a small filling is simple and non-invasive.  Your tooth is not ruined for life.  It will be fine.
