Does invisalign work on overbites and buck teeth?
Invisalign may provide some correction to your sister%26#039;s overbite and protrusive teeth but perhaps not the best result could be achieved with the aligners.





Find an orthodontist who provides a no-cost consultation and find out for sure.





There are so many factors to your question to give you a definitive answer. Her overbite could be an overjet or a deepbite; the protrusion could be related to her skeletal development and not the teeth.





The consultation should provide all the answers you need to make an informed decision.





The commercials give the impression Invisalign will make traditional (metal) braces a thing of the past. I rarely say never, and won%26#039;t now but I%26#039;m inclined to say, I believe that will not happen. They have limited application and optimal results can be achieved when indicated. A patient should not want a compromised result unless orthognathic surgery is indicated. That%26#039;s another question/situation.





I believe a patient should get what they pay for and have their expectations met. A consultation will help clarify both.





You%26#039;re sweet for looking after your %26quot;lil sister%26quot; as you are. All the best to you two!
Reply:Invisalign is for minor cases only. They cost more then regular braces. Ask your orthodontist if you qualify.
Reply:Invisalign will work, but it is more expensive. I have Invisalign and I had the same thing: Jet Bite with a gap in between the front teeth. Depending on the severity of the rest of her teeth, invisalign may not work. Check with your orthodontist, sometimes you can be put on a braces and invisalign combo - like me!
