Invisaline braces - experiences?

[BCskunk]

Hey all,

My teeth arent really that bad but i have a bit of overbite which I want taken care off..

I would like to avoid traditional metal braces if possible as im already 24 years old.

My colleague told me about invisaline - basically they are braces without all the metal wires...

has anyone here tried them?

experiences?

appreciate it..

thanks

my retainer (after having braces) is an invisalign type thing...I don't think they can make really drastic changes.

you are going to have to be checked out by a dentist anyways so ask him/her

If you have a really bad over bite than I wouldn't recomend invisaline since it won't really be able to correct it.

I'm on my last aligner for invisalign, and what a difference it's made for me. I had really crooked teeth, and a slight overbite. Invisalign straightened my teeth and helped minimize the overbite, although it didn't completely get rid of it. All in all, I am very happy with how the treatment turned out (and for 4 grand, I should be happy )
