Does Invisalign work?

I am interested in getting the Invisalign teeth aligners and im asking anyone who has used them if they work and if so how much time did it take (roughly).





Im 15 and have a crooked front tooth that I hope this system can fix along with an underbite.

Does Invisalign work?
This link will take you to the site -http://www.invisalign.com/generalapp/us/...





It is used to correct an underbite and will most definately take care of your crooked front tooth.





This page goes through the steps and says on average it takes about 1 year.

Also, as a hygienist I notice people's teeth alot, but the other day I had lunch with someone I don't see often and didn't even notice she had them. After I saw her take them out in the bathroom I was surprised and she is very very happy so far.


Hope that helps!

Reply:i have seen under bites fixed with invisalign and i think you should visit www.invisalign.com for more info and i do think that they work...i guess it really depends on what your case is and how severe it is....they usually take the same even less time and braces...around 2 years...and you get new trays as your teeth move which is every 2 weeks. i hope i helped you..and visit the site because i concidered them but my mom said braces were fine for me...
Reply:Um. I don't knoe from experience. But my friend, he got Invisalign and it works. But a lot of people say they make your teeth more yellow for some reason.
Reply:YEP IT DID HAVE THEM ON RIGHT KNOW I WOKE PRETTY WELL
Reply:The dentist I work for offers invislign. It strightens your teeth but does not fix your overbite, tmj, malocclusion, etc. You start by going to your dentist to see if your a canidate (most dentist will offer this visit for free with NO xrays). Then they will take about a dozen impressions of your mouth using impression material. They will send it off to the invislign lab. The invislign people send the dentist about 16-18 custom made trays that are designed for your mouth. You come about every six weeks to get your next set of trays. Costs range from $3500-$4800 or so. The real cost is only about $1500 or so.
