Could Invisalign be responsible for the increase in my jaw pain?

Monday, May 16th, 2011
Q.

Hi, I recently had invisalign treatment to straighten my teeth. My consultant suggested that this might also improve my overbite, but it hasn’t made any discernable impact on that which was disappointing. What’s worse though, I have noticed that I’ve been getting more frequent and worse jaw pain since finishing my treatment. I’ve always had the odd twinge, which I put down to the fact that my bite’s off, but it is definitely worse – do you think the invisalign treatment could be the reason? Do you think surgery would be the best option?

Thanks in advance for your time.

After years of brace work my teeth have drifted. What are my options?

Monday, May 16th, 2011
Q.

I had braces for 4 years when I was a teenager, and wore my retainer for 6 months longer than was required. Despite this my teeth have grown back to their original position. This is quite upsetting as you can imagine, since I spent my adolescence being ridiculed and going through quite a lot of pain for the braces, and it turns out it was all for nothing. I’m now 22, and don’t want to have to pay for the mistakes my orthodontist made. What treatments are available to me?

Does a scale and polish hurt and how long does it take?

Tuesday, May 10th, 2011
Q.

Hello dcotor, could you please tell me

what is scale and polish?

Does it hurt?

How long does it take to do?

Is it the same thing as going to the hygienist for a clean-up?

I am confused.

Also, I have recently straightened my teeth using invisalign and i normally wear my retainers every night since finishing the treatment. I also floss my teeth and recently i am noticing that there are gaps appearing in my lower teeth. Is this due to the flossing? I think it is. Please can u advice me on what to do? Many thanks doctor

My teeth have moved after having attached braces and I also grind my teeth, would Invisalign be a good option?

Thursday, April 14th, 2011
Q.

Hello,

I have slightly squint front teeth which I have had attached braces for during my teens. However over time they seem to be slightly squint again.

I’d like to get Invisalign-do prices begin at around the 3000 mark or can it be cheaper in milder cases?

Also I grind my teeth during my sleep and wear a gum shield to protect my teeth during the night. Would I still be able to have Invisalign? Would it stand up to my grinding?
I need a new gum shield every 8 months or so.

Thanks,

A.
