Amount of experience

[Wobblydeb]

I want the very best advice for straightening my teeth, but am struggling somewhat when it comes to invisalign. How do I independently establish how much experience the dentist has with providing this treatment?

When you search the invisalign website, it becomes clear that they believe certain corrections should only be carried out once the dentist has enough experience with the system.

BUT..... where the heck can you find out how many patients a dentist has treated? One of the people I phoned from invisalign's website has only just been trained (the receptionist is his guinea-pig!). Another few weeks and he will have started to advertise and customers will not realise he has just begun offering it.

The answer to this is you can't! Speak to your dentist about this, if they have done many cases it will be obvious when they talk in confidence. They may also be able to show you cases they have completed
