invisalign for children bristol
Q. My son is 12 he needs approx 2 teeth taking out then a brace fitting they are quite crooked does the invisalign work with this type of patient? and do you know of a Good Invisalign dentist in Bristol that you could recommend Ms S Bristol
A. Invisalign is a very useful way for dentists to rotate, tilt and slightly intrude or extrude teeth. One of the things it cannot do is bodily move a tooth through the bone. This is what really limits the possible treatments available to invisalign. Personally I have never used invisalign on a child of 12 but provided that he has his second molars completely through it is unlikely that he would not be able to be treated with invisalign, provided he does not need his teeth bodily moved. The best way to find out whether he is suitable is to find a registered invisalign dentist in Bristol and have him assessed. Unfortunately I am based in Hertfordshire and do not know any dentists in Bristol that provide invisalign treatment but i am sure a quick google search will help you out.

um..hi! my name is sogona and I’m going to be 12 in june.I just saw the invisalign ad on tv and I just wanted to know if it is necessary for my age.Is it? I wanted to close my gap for my b-day so I won’t be nervous to smile again,can it also close my gap?
I have just finished my invisalign treatment under the care of Dr Neil Gerrard at a clinic just outside Bristol in Clifton. He was more expensive that a few quotes i had from some other invisalign practitioners in and around Bristol but he is well worth the money. The quality of treatment my aftercare and attention to detail is what really does it for me. I even got a free teeth whitening at the end of my treatment which was a pleasant surprise. If you are thinking of having orthodontic treatment in the Bristol area well worth checking his clinic out.
hello I was wondering if you could tell me the difference between invisalign and invisalign teen? I have a 15 year old son who is looking to have some brace work for his gapped teeth and just wanted to know it inivsalign teen was the better option for him? What is the price in comparison to normal invisalign? thank you very much for your time
Invisalign teen is designed for the growing adult I use it regularly for people aged between 12-18. The price is the same as adult invisalign.
i’ve heard that you can combine invisalign with teeth whitening. How exactly does this work? is it safe? I would really like straight AND white teeth so i am very very interested! thank you for your time
Dear Enquirer, it is very simple: you can place tooth whtening gel inside the aligners at night and hence slowly whiten your teeth.
hi i have very stained teeth and just wondered if you can whiten teeth with the invisalign treatment? I would really like straight teeth that are white so would i have whitening before or after my invisalign treatment? thank you for reading
Hi there! I would suggest to have whitening after your orthodontic treatment finishes, unless you have tetracycline stains. In that case, you can whiten while you are doing the treatment. Best to visit an invisalign dentist first to determine your suitability for treatment and the cause of your staining. You may only need polishing!
