    Default Is the Inman Aligner ok if I have a baby tooth

    I am trying to establish if I would be an appropriate candidate for an Inmanaligner. I have an extra" baby tooth" which is an incisor just to the front of my first molar.

    The adult incisor is raised and sits slightly forward at an angle.

    I appreciate I will require to have the "baby tooth" removed however wondered if the aligner would be able to (a) move the adult incisor back in to the resulting gap and (b) move the molars forward to fill out any additional room.

    Hi Swanny

    It is difficult to give you an opinion from just a description because the Inman Aligner has limitations.
    I would suggest seeing a certified Inman Aligner dentist for a consultation or perhaps email a photo to at least get a possible yes or no to suitability.
