My first question is, why do you want to “re use hawley retainers” since you have the bonded ones? Second, has this been discussed with your orthodotist? If you’re teeth have moved WITH the bonded retainers on, this is something that your orthodontist should be made aware of. They should be able to provide you with help.

Can Invisalign correct rotated teeth and an overbite? I have a crossbite and overbite.

Yes

Invisalign can definitely help correct rotated teeth. In conjuction with elastics, it can help correct your crossbite and overbite.
I would recommend that you pursue your treatment with an orthodontist who is well-versed in practicing with Invisalign.

I have not worn my elastics for 2 months. Will this delay the removal of my braces since I haven

Congratulations to you that you’re almost done with your treatment!!
Elastics are commonly used for bite correction. It’s a possibility that the correction needed didn’t occur and you’ll need to postpone the removal of your braces. Just be aware of the possiblity and don’t be too disappointed if the braces don’t come off.
It’s always a good thing to keep your orthodontist up to date with any changes (good or bad) in regards to your treatment.

My last Invisalign tray won’t even go on my teeth! What should I do?

Ask Your Orthodontist/Provider

Without the attachments, it should be easier to put on or take off your aligner.
Call your orthodontist (or whomever provided you with Invisalign) right away and let them know what’s going on. Tell them what number the aligner is and the issue.
Always communicate with your provider first with any issue.

Options to Consider

As always, give your dentist a call to update them with your current situation.
– Did you notice the bend before or after attempting to insert the aligner on your teeth?- Is your dentist’s office closed the next 3 days or they’re not taking appointments for the next 3 days? I only ask because they can give you verbal tips over the phone.
That being said, there are options to try on your own…..
1. Call Invisalign and speak to a customer service representative and see…

Is this normal? I was left without rubber bands on half of my teeth.

Hi! The best thing to do is ask your orthodontist. They will be able to explain what is going on during this time in your treatment.

How am I supposed to know what size my wire is?

Hi! Easiest way is to contact your orthodontist and ask. They should have that information on your dental records. Communication is key!
Hope that helps!
