I did! I would highly recommend going with what your orthodontist recommends. I unfortunately went with a cosmetic dentist to begin with as did not know the difference between dentist and orthodontists. The dentist thought Invisalign was best suited for myself. However it did not suit my lifestyle, and after having a few consultations with different orthodontists I realised I should of got fixed braces not just because of my lifestyle but also because of my bite issue which Invisalign could of not solved! I also needed a frenectomy surgery hence another reason why Invisalign did not work for me. So here I am now after spending £3K on Invisalign, I am now spending another £3K if not more by the time I finish on top! Please avoid my mistake!
