58 years old Invisalign with an implant and a bridge
Posted: Fri Sep 13, 2019 9:54 pm
This is my first post. I have had my molds made and I've been waiting for my clincheck appointment. I am 59 and have an upper anterior bridge, veneers on my upper canines and an implant on my lower left first premolar. I had a bad habit of sucking my finger growing up from the age of three until eleven or so. My two upper teeth were chipped when I fell hitting my teeth. My parents couldn't afford braces.
When I was able to afford them myself I was told that braces could not help my two front teeth and the closest thing to getting a nice smile would be to have them pulled and to have a bridge placed.
Years later I replaced that bridge with a beautiful porcelain bridge which I unfortunately fractured because my bottom teeth keep them. So here I am ready to get started and reading all that I can to learn about this process.
