So far behind you can barely see it. Dentists keep suggesting different things and I don&#8217;t know who to trust. One dentist said to get braces. Another suggested I just pull that tooth. Then there are all the pieces of advice in between. Would Invisalign even be a possibility for me?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Marie<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Dear Marie,<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.camelliadds.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/Invisalign.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"900\" height=\"619\" src=\"https:\/\/www.camelliadds.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/Invisalign.jpg\" alt=\"Invisalign aligners\" class=\"wp-image-1827\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.camelliadds.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/Invisalign.jpg 900w, https:\/\/www.camelliadds.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/Invisalign-300x206.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.camelliadds.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/Invisalign-768x528.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 900px) 100vw, 900px\" \/><\/a><figcaption>Invisalign Aligner<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>It used to be that Invisalign would only work on the more ideal cases. These days are different. Invisalign can work on all but the most complicated cases. Because of that, there is a great possibility that Invisalign will be a good solution for you. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>They also have the added benefit of the aligners being able to double as teeth whitening trays, which means you can straighten and whiten your teeth at the same time, if that is something you are interested in. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Don&#8217;t let the dentist pull your tooth. First, if you left it as is, you would never look normal with a smile that is asymmetrical. If you wanted to replace the tooth with something like <a href=\"https:\/\/www.camelliadds.com\/dental_implants.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">a dental implant<\/a>, you would still need to open up the space with some type of orthodontics. In that case, why not keep your natural tooth structure?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you decide not to go with Invisalign, another possibility is to use <a href=\"https:\/\/www.camelliadds.com\/porcelain_veneers.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">porcelain veneers<\/a>. These will not actually straighten your teeth, but it will make them look straight, <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Veneers are typically used by someone who wants a full smile makeover. That is because they can change the shape, size, and color of your teeth. If you decide to go that way, you will need an expert cosmetic dentist, like <a href=\"https:\/\/www.camelliadds.com\/about_mikemalone.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">an AACD accredited dentist<\/a> because your case is more complicated.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>My suggestion, if the only thing that bothers you about your smile is that one crooked tooth, is to see a dentist who offers Invisalign. Let them examine you and they&#8217;ll be honest about whether or not you are a good candidate. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This blog is brought to you by <a href=\"https:\/\/www.camelliadds.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Lafayette, LA Dentists<\/a> Drs.
