Re: Gaps and wisdom teeth

Thank guys - I'm really happy that I went ahead with it in the end. My ortho was very confident of getting the job done with invisalign in most cases and told me there were very few cases that she didn't think she could get done without using regular braces. She was down as a platinum elite invisali...

Re: Gaps and wisdom teeth

Hi, I have my wisdom teeth bracketed. Just recently, I had to have one wisdom tooth extracted. How large are your gaps and were they caused by extracted teeth? I had two molars extracted long before I got braces, one gap was closed but the other one, wasn't. I had lost too much bone because that to...

Do the power chains significantly speed up the closing of gaps? I assume they're only for brackets right, is there anything Invisalign uses to close gaps or are they not particularly suitable for that situation.

Gaps and wisdom teeth

Hi guys, I'm thinking about getting braces (almost certainly going to get Damons when I sort my finances out) and had a question regarding my wisdom teeth. My teeth are pretty straight in terms of alignment but have gaps throughout. I have upper and lower wisdom teeth that have never caused me any p...
