my daughter is 24 and has protuding eye teeth would invisalign be suitable for her

Q. Hello! My daughter(24) has protruding eye teeth,which she calls “fangs”,as a result of crowding.Whilst the rest of her upper teeth seem straight,these cuspids actually rest on her bottom lip! She has a very limited budget but has finally decided to have treatment.She prefers the idea of invisalign but wonders if this is likely to be suitable in her case. We’d appreciate your views on this. Thank you

A.

You ideally need to dicsuss ALL options of orthodontic treatment for your daughter’s needs. I recommend a consultation with a cosmetic dentist/orthodontist to see what can be done. It’s hard for me to comment- as I haven’t personally seen the tooth postion. I do however think that ortho is the way to go. If it will improve the overall smile and confidence of your daughter, then why not? Good luck
