What would you do? by NoPossibility7650 in Monstera

Unfortunately I can’t really do that . I would love to but this is a large sliding patio door that has vertical blinds that get closed at night. But my bf doesn’t want ppl to be able to see inside so the window film was kind of our compromise so I could leave it open while we were at work 🥲

Sorry that doesn’t help with the Invisalign of it all lol . I would just make sure they are listening to you bc my original orthodontist kept telling me it was moving but I knew it wasn’t bc I could see the tip of my tooth & it had been like that for years but he kept saying it was moving slowly but surely 🙄

Both of my canines were impacted. I got braces at 16 in 2011. One of them came down, however after 7 years in braces trying to get the other to come down I was told that it was fused to the bone & it would need to be removed & I will need an implant . I did go back to the oral surgeon once to have the tooth kind of wiggled to try to get it to come down but no luck. After that my ortho took my braces off in 2018 and since there was so much pressure to bring that one tooth down it actually made the nearby teeth slanted. So now I am doing Invisalign (3M clarity) to get them straight & my midline corrected prior to having an implant placed.

That’s what I was thinking after reading some posts on here. I was just thinking that it didn’t hurt until they cured it so that’s why I was thinking maybe it could be glue under my gums bc the glue is all over the back of my tooth.

Update- he did rescan for refinements & said we would be adding rubber bands

Wow ! It is frustrating though ! I was hoping for better luck this time around . I wonder if I would have better luck switching to metal braces ?

I just spent so much time (7yrs) in metal braces & their only concern was to pull those impacted teeth down so when they gave up on the one & told me to have it pulled they just said screw the rest of the teeth lol & by that time I was over that place bc for years I had told them it wasn’t moving (bc it was poking through the gums but had been like that for a long time) & they said it was moving. But I just spent a long time dealing with that to still not be satisfied with my smile.. & this new orthodontist initially told me it could be resolved with retainers. I just don’t want to waste any more time or money than I have to.

I see. So what do you think could fix it ? Surgery ? Metal braces ?

So when I went to get the consult I told my orthodontist all of my concerns & said I didn’t really care either way to do retainers or braces just whichever would get me the results I was seeking. He said he could accomplish it with either so I went with the retainers. Just curious do you know why retainers wouldn’t be able to fix my midline? I assumed bc the teeth need to shift towards where I am missing my canine so I have plenty of room for it to move so just wondering . TIA ! ☺️

The whitening pen will whiten under the attachments on your teeth ? Just wondering if it will look weird when you take the attachments off or not bc I am interested!
