remember tho

Invisalign treatment only tilts teeth. It does not move them bodily.

example:
crowded front teeth
1 of the 4 is removed
tilting the other 3 does not solve any problem; it makes matters much worse
only solution is to move the teeth
that means you dont want to tilt and make them nonvertical

my only solution is with wired braces to bodily move the teeth over many months, even cpl years, to move the teeth and also not lose any bone supporting them

my fav story is the NY Slimes article advising folk to travel to Germany for a 2 week vacation. Get braces for 2 weeks and remove them prior to returning, or after returning. Then you can deduct the travel as its health related. The only problem is that you end up with teeth swimming free, cuz there was no bone supporting them. The 2 week treatment dissolved all the supporting bone...but the travel was deductable

My 2nd most fav story is the NYSlimes article mentioning that if you have any headache see the dentist, cuz all headaches are caused by the TMJoint which connects the lower jaw to the skull
