I have a big gap in my teeth ...what should i do?

I qualify for invisalign but i am afraid the dentist is just doing a sales pitch when she tells me they work just like braces in my case. I dont care about the appearance just the quick more effective results.





in my case whats the best way to go and WHY?

Mine kind of closed on it's own. Yours might to, depending on how old you are (i'm 18 now, when I was 10 the gap was big enough to fit my tongue through). Invisalign does work, if it comes to that and you can afford it. From what I've heard, though, they're more of a bother than braces, except not being able to see them.
Reply:get brases that sparkle and look nice to hide the gaps
Reply:I have a gap, too. I got just regular braces, my orthodontist said the gap will close up in 3 to 4 visits, so I'm excited.


If you don't care if you have braces or not, then get braces,cause invisalign is WAY more expensive and takes a longer time to fix your teeth than the regular braces.
Reply:invisalign can fix your gap, it is more expensive than braces though.
Reply:can't you just get it your teeth bonded? My cousin got her front teeth bonded and it looks great. Ask your dentist about it
Reply:Your best bet would be 2 porcelain veneers. It can be done in one outpatient visit and you get immediate results. No more gap!
Reply:My friends an orthodontist and in easier cases invisalign is just as useful as braces. Unless your teeth are really crooked you can use invisalign just fine.
Reply:Spray water through them like a fountain!
Reply:Just keep them like they are! Be yourself! Its part of you, dont change! Keep it real!
Reply:Not sure how much the invisalign cost but the metal braces will hide the gap until it closes.
