Can you get invisalign when you have a dental implant?

Question

my dentist told me i would probably be a candidate for invisalign and gave me a referral for an orthondontist....hes done all my fillings and did the dental implant.....but when i researched it on the net it said you cant get invisalign when you have a dental implant - you need all your permanent teeth? Could someone shed some light for me.

Answer 1

My two front teeth are implants and I'm wearing Invisilign.

There's not problems.

Edit:

When I was young, I got implants in the front to fix a big open bite. At the time, it was less expensive to replace the two front teeth with longer ones, than to wear braces and fix the whole mouth. I still have a small open bite but it does not bother me and Invisilign is going to fix that anyway, along with the crowding at the bottom and the midline shift and one buck tooth.

I never had any problem with my smile but the crowding at the bottom got worse over the years and a couple of time, my tongue got caught between two teeth and the pain prompted me to fix the problem.

They removed one of my teeth at the bottom to make room for the others.

Even my two implants at the top, moved over the years and one looked longer than the other and was slightly more forward. After about three months, my implants are now perfectly straight and even. I still have a few months to go and I can’t wait to have straight teeth!
