my gums are not strong and my front tooth is not aligned can i have invisalign to fix it?

Q. Hi, “my gums are not very strong”, that was what i was told by a dentist. They started a treatment which includes norming one side of my mouth to help the gum. i only did one session cos i didnt see any diifference. My front tooth is not aligned properly, i have gap teeth top and buttom. My question is can i have the invisalign fixed to correct all this flaws. Please help, am desperate.

A. Hi
im not sure what norming is, what end was your dentist treating.with regards to invisalign, you cannot have it done if there is any active gum disease or decay. and you will have to have done the clincheck component of the diagnostic to see if it can help

I have gum disease, my teeth has started to move. Could invisalign be the correct treatment to re-align my teeth,

Not when you still have active gum disease. ORthodontics is likely to make the long term situation worse.

Hello, my son has been wearing invisalign braces for a while and ive been noticing a white line at each side of his tongue, is this to do with the brace? I was thinking it could be fungal. Is there anything you could recommend? thank you

Hello,
It could be from biting his tongue in between his upper and lower teeth or fungal. It would be best for your son to see a dentist to determine what is causing it and treat it accordingly.
Hope that helps
