Invisalign wearers or those who know about it?

Question

First, just a little warning for those who are about to go through Invisalign. You'll get your aligners and do the math to figure out how long it'll take, but they don't really tell you about the refinement process after the initial treatment. I got 15 upper aligners and it looks like I won't be done after those. My teeth will still need work.

They re-do molds and send them back and then you get more aligners. For those who've gone through Invisalign or know about it, how many more aligners will I need? Are we talking about another 15? I just think they should tell you that it probably won't be done after the intial treatment.

Answer 1

it's on a case by case basis

sorry i couldn't be of more help

Answer 2

EVERY CASE IS SPECIFIC AND DIFFERENT

EVERY PATIENT RECEIVES BRABD-NEW ALIGNERS

THESE ARE MADE BY A COMPLEX COMPUTER FOR EVERY PATIENT

Answer 3

I think your case must be exceptional. Maybe one of your teeth won't move for some reason. Invisalign usually takes between 6 months and 2 years (never heard of longer).
