Will invisalign work for more serious cases of crooked teeth?

It says it will on the website, but will it really? I had braces for a little over a year before but didn't wear a retainer and therefore three of my teeth are very crooked and misaligned now (the rest are ok). I want to do something about this now to get the problem fixed. I REALLY don't want metal braces, they're just incredibley embarassing. Will invisalign work for serious cases? I don't care about the duration, just as long as it works. Let me know.

Will invisalign work for more serious cases of crooked teeth?
I had a very minimal problem with my teeth when I got invisalign...The dentist told me I was a good candidate for it %26amp; we started the treatment %26amp; I paid $5000...





6 months later I was told I was done, told to use my last tray as a retainer (which was gross after liek 3 months)





When I had my Invisalign off, by the end of the day, my gaps returned. Now a year later, my teeth are just as they were before I started, I would not reccomend Invisalign to anyone!
Reply:my daughters dentist said it was not an option for her because her teeth were too crooked so i would say no.
Reply:invisalign will not owrk for crooked teeth if there serious! i just got braces yesturday and it didnt hurt at all but i talked to my dentist about getting invisalign and he told me that there was no way it could help my teeth and he told me that it was only used for already straight teeth! glad to help!
Reply:Invisalign is for minor cases only. Plus, Invisalign costs more then regular braces.
Reply:Invisalign does not always cost more than regular braces. This is a myth.





"Serious" cases can be done with Invisalign. Only an experience Invisalign provider can make this decision.





I have personally seen it give excellent results with even complex cases, but not every dentist has the same experience and may tell you, "your case won't work with Invisalign" simply because they don't know how to get the results.





Find a qualified dentist who has years of experience with Invisalign and go in for a consultation.





Most general dentists charge LESS for Invisalign than orthodontists charge for braces.
Reply:my ortho says it doesnt. he made me get normal braces. he said that i'd have to have invisalign TWICE as long...so 6 years instead of 3?! no thanks. mine are off now and my teeth are gorgeous. so stick with the metal!
