Will I need to remove my wisdom teeth for Invisalign treatment?

[Frankie01]

Hi

I am interested in straightening my teeth and I am seriously considering doing it with Invisalign invisible braces. I have looked at Inman aligner but it seems that Invisalign is far more invisible and smaller than Inman and would be better for my teeth.

Could you tell me if I need to have my wisdom teeth removed prior or after Invisalign treatment? My wisdom teeth are not causing any pain but I am worried that they will push my teeth after Invisalign treatment and make them crowded again.

It is not always necessary to have your wisdom teeth pulled out for Invisalign treatment, but yes as you mentioned if it is going to influence you results or cause your teeth to move in the future then the Dentist may recommend having them extracted. In either case i am sure whoever you see would advise you of the best course of treatment anyway.

If Invisalign is a treatment you are seriously considering, we would recommend seeing an Invisalign Dentist for an assessment to see what Invisalign could do for you.
