I want to get Invisalign but I have a couple of missing teeth. Is Invisalign still possible?<\/p>\n

Dear Dan,<\/p>\n

\"A<\/p>\n

Invisalign does fine with missing teeth. It used to be that Invisalign could only take certain types of cases but it’s becoming more and more advanced and can take even cases of crowding at times these days.<\/p>\n

The key to a successful Invisalign<\/a> case, when there are missing teeth involved, is communication with your dentist. Are you looking to replace those teeth? Do you want a permanent replacement, such as dental implants? Or, do you just want to close up the spaces? Those will work different ways during treatment so make sure you and your dentist discuss your goals thoroughly.<\/p>\n

Invisalign Versus Other Cosmetic Work<\/h2>\n

What Invisalign will do is straighten your teeth. If that’s all you want to be done, then that’s the perfect treatment solution. If there are other things about your smile you want to tweak, there are several options.<\/p>\n

If another issue you have is the whiteness of your teeth, your Invisalign aligners can double as teeth whitening trays. That allows you to simultaneously whiten and straighten your teeth.<\/p>\n

If you’re looking for a total smile makeover, porcelain veneers are the way to go. These can change absolutely anything about your teeth\u2014 the shape, the size, the color, or any combination of those. One word of caution when it comes to smile makeovers.<\/p>\n

While just about any dentist can do Invisalign or teeth whitening<\/a>, to get a beautiful smile with porcelain veneers<\/a> takes some additional training and skill. In fact, you’ll want an expert cosmetic dentist. Ideally, you should get an AACD accredited dentist.<\/p>\n

These are the top cosmetic dentists in the world. Most, if not all of them will have a beautiful smile guarantee.<\/p>\n
