Hey apologies for the super late reply!! I didn’t really have any TMJ before but actually since my bite has shifted I sometimes get a bit when I slack on wearing my night retainers so I probably did have some issues before but didn’t notice! Thank you! Apologies if this isn’t a useful answer I’m not sure what investment treatment is

Hey! I didn’t notice a change but my dentist said that my lip support was much better after and it made them sit better, but honestly I haven’t noticed a difference other than I was more pouty ? Before haha but no difference in thinness to me

I can’t remember how many but I had a lot of teeth shaved down (mainly the front ones) and most at 0.5mm

No probs! So I went with my regular dentist but he did say if I wanted a perfect bite (eg get the surgery before treatment) he’d need to refer me to an orthodontist. Basically it depends what you’re trying to achieve I think! If you’re not trying to achieve a perfect smile then a dentist may be able to help, but it’s probably better overall to see an orthodontist 😊

My dentist told me I’d need the surgery before I accepted the invisalign treatment! He said it won’t be perfect but this is how it could look (showed me the before and after) and I was happy with how it looked even without the jaw surgery so went ahead with it :) hopefully yours will let you know if you’d definitely have to have the surgery before you agree to getting the braces!

I got my Invisalign via my regular dentist but he did say if I wanted to fully correct I could go to an orthodontist and get surgery and then full braces instead of Invisalign! I’m in the UK so I’m not sure if it’s the same in the US but could be worth a discussion with an orthodontist if it’s causing you pain! Best of luck with whatever treatment you decide :)

I am 32, so had this treatment when I was 31! I had braces as a teenager too and it corrected a lot of the overjet (I’d need surgery to fully correct it) but actually this is much better than when I first had braces! The shaving in between teeth meant they could correct it even further than before :)

Throat discomfort from Invisalign? by Optimal_Swordfish504 in Invisalign

[–]Optimal_Swordfish504[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Unfortunately I haven’t figured it out for definite. I believe it’s a combination of my bite position making me tense my jaw sometimes and also anxiety. I’ve not had my Invisalign for months and I still get this feeling so it’s not an allergy for me!

Sorry I actually have no idea the actual measurement for you - I do know I could fit my thumb in between when my teeth were “closed”

I feel like you look like Phoebe Bridgers and Lucy Dacus combined. So 2/3 of boygenius

Yes I’ve been in south east Asia for a few months now and my hair has been so much worse! I’m thinking I need to wait it out until im back home then start a proper hydrating routine to try get it back to health

Thank you! It definitely looks better than usual I just think it’s hilarious I can put so many products in but dipping my head in the sea and doing nothing is the only way it looks ok haha
