Invisalign doesn't move the roots of the teeth??

Question

I saw some posts saying that Invisalign doesnt actually move the roots of the teeth. That make the Invisalign sound useless!!! Does anyone know about this? Is this true?

Answer 1

Thats a load of bull. I have invisalign, and my doctor is the "best" on the east coast and she explained it too me. Don't believe that stuff.  

Answer 2

I've heard that a few times before too. I think it is true, but it doesn't mean that Invisalign is ineffective, just that there are some things it can't do. Ask your ortho what it means for you.    

Answer 3

Invisalign are most comfortable and easy to remove. They are great if you don't have a need--- a lot of movement.Go through this link to know more on invisalign and its pros and cons...  

Answer 4

That's scary. I have invisalign. But how else would it move? Can't just move the teeth. It would be loose just like when you are losing your teeth and they are wiggling. I don't believe that.
