This is a young lady who was told by several dentists that she couldn’t be treated with Invisalign alone – that she was “too difficult to treat with Invisalign.” Dr John Serrano-Davey didn’t think so.
Our Approach
Rather than ruling out Invisalign altogether, Dr Serrano-Davey treated her with a full course of Invisalign aligners, combined with six weeks of a fixed brace hidden behind her six upper front teeth to handle the more complex movement those teeth needed. This combined approach meant she still got the discreet, removable experience of Invisalign for the bulk of her treatment, while the short fixed-brace phase dealt with the part clear aligners alone couldn’t manage – and here is the result.
What the Patient Said
“I’m absolutely delighted that John was able to achieve such a great result, even though I was told it was impossible without wearing ‘traintracks’! Thank you so much for giving me this beautiful new smile.”
Told Invisalign Won’t Work for You?
It’s worth getting a second opinion. Cases that look complex on the surface – overcrowding, teeth that need more precise movement than aligners alone can achieve can often still be treated with Invisalign, sometimes combined with a short, targeted fixed-brace phase like this one.
