should i get another revision

#1 Post by jennicakes »

i am now through with all of my aligners and done my first revision, and i am not completely satisfied with my results. here are my problems:

1. midline is off, so two of my top teeth do not have space to move down (become longer) because they are positioned directly on top of the two bottoms.

2. as mentioned before, I have a few top teeth (the two to either side of the middle teeth) that are too short.

i am afraid to say something. do u guys think i should?

my ortho has mentioned before that invisalign has limitations when it comes to midlines, and bringing teeth down, but I feel like we haven't even tried the second revision, and my teeth did move down a bit before, so if we could just fix the midline, those teeth could move down more.

what about rubber bands? or having a little bit of ipr on some of the top teeth, so the teeth could shift over?

anyone have any experience with invisalign fixing these problems?

my appointment for my retainers is next week, so please help
