Will My Old Invisalign Aligners Help with Nighttime Grinding?

by

Man with mouth open for elgin invisalign blog

I finished Invisalign treatment about two years ago and still have some of the aligners even though I don’t “need” them anymore. However, I think I’ve been grinding at night. I wake up in the morning and my jaw is incredibly sore. My teeth all feel kind of achy. I’m catching myself doing a fair amount of clenching during the day as well… It’s just the stress of everything, I think… trying to adapt to working from home, homeschooling the kids, the crazy economy, social distancing… Probably like everyone else, I think it’s getting to me. I don’t usually have a problem with clenching or grinding, so I don’t have anything at home to use for this. But, since I do have some of my old Invisalign aligners, I wonder if those will do the trick. For what it’s worth, I did try my last set on and, although it’s a bit of a pinch, I can still get them on. Will this work for now or is there something else I can do?

Thanks,

Damien

 

Dear Damien,

They kind of look the same, don’t they? Both are typically made of clear plastic and are molded to match the shape of your teeth. It’s easy to think they work the same, too, but aligners and nightguards are totally different in their function and, thus, are made a bit differently too.

Invisalign Aligners are Made to Push Your Teeth into Place

If you think of it this way, it might help. Your aligners worked because they pushed on your teeth. They gave them little nudges until they eventually made it to their ideal destinations. In order to do this, they have to be hard and inflexible. That’s how they make your teeth mobile.

Night Guards are Made to Cushion Your Teeth

Conversely, night guards are designed specifically for teeth grinding, which is also referred to as bruxism. They absorb the biting force and distribute it better. They provide jaw support too. Because of this, they do need to be firm, but they have more shock absorption properties than the aligners used for straightening teeth have.

Wearing Your Old Aligners Could Make Things Worse

If it was a pinch to get your old aligners on, they don’t fit right anymore. That means they’ll start to push your teeth into their ideal positions again. They’ll become at least mildly mobile.  Take into consideration that you’re presently grinding and clenching all day, and you’d be doing that on teeth that are already mobile, it’s a recipe for disaster. The aligners aren’t a good solution and they could make the problems worse.

Get Recommendations from Your Dentist

There are night guards you can purchase from the local drug store or grocery. They aren’t as good as the ones your dentist can make for you, as the fit won’t be perfect and the materials aren’t quite the same. However, something like that could potentially work for you for a short period of time. Equally, this may be something you want to bring to your dentist’s attention. Based on your symptoms, this may not be a dental emergency that requires immediate care, but he’ll be able to go over what you’re experiencing in greater detail and help you find the best solution.

Should I Stop Wearing Invisalign During the Coronavirus Pandemic?

by

grocery worker with invisalign during coronavirus outbreakI’m really freaked out that I’m going to catch coronavirus from my Invisalign. Most people are at home and staying away from the general public, but I work in a grocery store and they’ve got me working all kinds of overtime right now. I’m really careful about not handling my aligners at work but I do take them out when I have my lunch break. Should I stop wearing them altogether? If I do, will it mess up my treatment?

Thanks,

Kim

 

Dear Kim,

This question inevitably gets asked a lot during flu season but everyone is hyper-aware now with coronavirus too. Care practices don’t shift because of COVID-19 but you can take extra precautions if they set your mind at ease.

You Can Keep Wearing Your Invisalign

There’s no reason to stop using your aligners. There’s nothing to suggest that wearing them increases your risk of getting sick, but you are going to want to be especially mindful about hygiene since you do handle them at work where you’re presumably exposed to hundreds if not thousands of people each day.

Wash Your Hands to Prevent Coronavirus Spread

The greatest risk is going to be when you’re taking the aligners off to eat. It may go without saying, but you’ll want to be sure you’re not handling them unless your hands are freshly washed. You’ll also want to be sure you’re putting them someplace safe while you eat. Their case is the best place. For an added layer of protection, you can place them in a plastic Ziplock-style bag as well.

Disinfect Mindfully

During this time, you may be tempted to disinfect your aligners will all sorts of household cleaners. They’re not designed for this and many cleaners can degrade the plastic, thus ruining your aligners or changing their color. While the CDC does not recommend vinegar because it’s not an EPA-registered disinfectant, it has demonstrated antimicrobial activity. If you choose to use this or bleach, dilute them to minimize damage to your aligners.

Pausing Treatment Can Set You Back

It’s important to note that your teeth are mobile right now. By design, the aligners gradually move your teeth into their desired places. They don’t firm up right away when you finish treatment, which is why retainers are used. Ergo, if you stop treatment right now and don’t do anything to make sure your teeth stay where they’ve moved to, they will start shifting again. That means you’re not only out the time you didn’t wear the aligners but may backtrack some too. Moreover, your teeth may shift into positions that don’t match your aligners. If this happens, you’ll have to have them made again, which can be costly as well.

Bottom Line: Keep wearing your aligners. Just be sure you’re practicing good hygiene.

Is Invisalign Responsible for My Chipped Teeth?

by

woman hiding chipped teeth after Invisalign treatment

I did Invisalign for a little over a year and just wrapped it up four months ago. Since then, I’ve had three different teeth chip. I haven’t changed anything and I wasn’t injured or anything. The teeth just chipped on their own. I’ve never in my life chipped a tooth before this. All I can think of is that it must be tied to the Invisalign, like something went wrong or my teeth didn’t wind up where they’re supposed to be.

I did go in and have the first chip repaired by my general dentist. He’s also the one who did my ortho. We both remarked that it was strange- he’s been my dentist for 12 years, so he knows my teeth well. But, he didn’t suggest anything could be wrong. And, now, two more chipped teeth later, I’m wondering if he didn’t dig deeper to find out what was wrong because he knew it was caused by my ortho. Is that a possibility? If not, what caused it and how can I stop it?

Thanks,

Stephanie

 

Dear Stephanie,

When you went in for your first chipped tooth, it wasn’t a pattern. It was a single tooth. People chip their teeth all the time doing things they shouldn’t, like using their teeth as tools to open things. Oftentimes, people don’t readily admit they’ve done something or injured themselves as well. Obviously, teeth don’t just chip all by themselves; something causes them to chip. Without details from the patient, it’s sometimes hard for the doctor to diagnose or realize there’s a greater issue, especially when you’re talking about a singleton. Chances are, if you went in with three chips now, he’d be all over it.

This is Probably from Night Grinding, Not Invisalign

What you’re describing is consistent with people who grind their teeth at night. Your aligners, although not designed to protect teeth in this fashion, would have offered some protection anyway. It’s possible your habits have changed or you’re under more stress or you’ve developed apnea too. If you’re experiencing jaw pain or soreness, especially in the morning, that’s probably the culprit behind the chips. The good news is, a nightguard can help and they’re easy to have made too.

There Are Other Potential Causes Too

There’s some possibility your alignment is off, especially if you’re not wearing a retainer or still using your aligners some of the time. That would mean your teeth aren’t coming together right and some areas may be getting more force than they should be. Something like grinding would exacerbate the problem more.

Get an Evaluation

Go back and see your dentist and let him know about the new chips. Again, he will probably jump right in with detective work to find the root cause. If he doesn’t, or he doesn’t give you a solution to it, have a consult with another dentist or orthodontist to find out what’s going on. With three chips, something’s certainly happening, but you’ll need an evaluation to confirm.

Are My Invisalign Aligners Making Me Sick?

by

woman with invisalign and a cold

I‘m 28 and just started Invisalign three weeks ago. All that’s been going good. I really haven’t had any pain or trouble adjusting, which is awesome. The problem is, my household seems to be passing around a nasty bug. It started more than a month ago when my youngest brought something home from preschool. Before I knew it, the other three kids had it and then my husband and I got it. I was diligent about throwing out our toothbrushes and everything, and even soaked my aligners in mouthwash trying to kill the bug. We all seemed to get better too. But, then I got sick again and one by one, everyone else did too. I’m worried that something remained on my aligners despite my attempts to create a germ-free environment. But, they’re not like my toothbrush that I can just throw away. Can I? What’s the protocol here? I want to get ahead of this thing before I wind up sick again.

Thanks,

Kirsten

 

Dear Kirsten,

Colds are funny and there’s so much information about how they work. Although it’s technically “possible” to catch the same cold twice, most people build up immunity to the strain they have, so no matter how many times they use the same germy toothbrush or wear rhinovirus encrusted aligners, they aren’t going to catch the same cold again. That’s most people, most of the time.

So, what gives? Chances are, your family caught two distinct bugs, one right after the other. One of the great “joys” of having kids during cold season or even being in an office setting for that matter. When you’re exposed to a lot of people, you’ll pick up bugs. There’s also some possibility you caught two cold bugs at once. Although that’s rare, it can happen too.

Tossing Toothbrushes and Invisalign Aligners is Overkill

Ture, if one family member is sick and the others aren’t, you want to keep their toothbrushes separate from everyone else’s to prevent the spread of germs, but there’s really no need to throw them out. If your family is in good general health, you’ll build up immunity to the bugs.

Don’t Use Mouthwash to Disinfect

Mouthwash can discolor your aligners, so it’s not the best bet. Instead, try using white vinegar. It’s acidic enough to kill bacteria. If you’re doing it on a regular basis, use a 50/50 mix of vinegar and water and let them soak for 30 minutes. You can do the same with your toothbrushes and even with teeth whitening trays.

Be Mindful of How You’re Handling Your Aligners

One of the bigger risks is when you’re healthy and you’re handling your aligners before and after meals. Particularly if you’re taking care of sick family members, it’s easy to pick up the bugs on your hands and then transfer them to the aligners.

Skip the Aligners if Need Be

If you’re really worried about it or just feeling crummy, you can go without the aligners while you’re sick. However, it will impact your Invisalign treatment. In that case, start using them as soon as you can again and be sure to tell your dentist you’ve taken a break so he can adjust course.

Nighttime Clear Aligners vs. Invisalign: Which is Right for Me?

by

orthodontic aligner at night on moonlit sky

I’m trying to figure out how Nighttime Clear Aligners differ from Invisalign. Obviously, there’s the whole you only wear them at night element, but would it somehow be different than if I just wore Invisalign at night only?

I’m 28 and have pretty good teeth, but they’ve never been straight, and I want to fix it. However, my job requires me to be on the phone several hours per day and I’m afraid wearing aligners will interfere with speech, so I never stated any kind of orthodontic treatment. Honestly, I considered “cheating,” and going with the aligners from my dentist, but only wearing them at night, but I was afraid they wouldn’t work.

Anyway, the two types of aligners seem to be the same thing, so I was a little surprised when I heard that nighttime-only was a choice now. Are they really the same thing or is the new kind somehow better?

Thanks,

Kayla

 

Dear Kayla,

Unfortunately, they’re not the same at all. On the surface, sure, you’re getting clear aligners, but the process isn’t the same and they don’t work the same.

Nighttime Clear Aligners are from Smile Direct Club

To be blunt, the five-year-old company has a bit of a sordid past and now has over 1,300 complaints filed with the Better Business Bureau. Some of the most common complaints involve people simply not getting the results they expected, but a particularly worrisome number had damage that required additional treatment to correct or needed to go through traditional orthodontics after anyway. The NY Post recently did an expose on the company too, citing issues like improper bite as major culprits. The problem is, these mail order systems are typically purely cosmetic. Sure, they can sometimes make your teeth straighter, but they don’t address your bite. Think of it this way, if you bite your teeth together now, do they all come together neatly and at roughly the same time? They should. If not, the teeth that hit first can become traumatized, resulting in the need for a root canal. Fractures, chips, and sore jaws occur too. It gets worse from there if left unchecked. That in mind, you really do need to address your bite with ortho.

Nighttime Wear ≠ Full-Day Wear Results

But, now, you’re adding another layer on top of it by only wearing them at night. Let’s go straight to the source on this one. Their own video that addresses whether teeth move more slowly with Nighttime Clear Aligners gives the answer, “It depends. Each aligner set is custom made to safely move your teeth within the prescribed time…” That’s probably the best non-answer you will hear in your life and there’s a reason for that. It’s impossible for teeth to move at the same rate. By their estimates, nighttime-only options take an extra four months. The problem is, in order for your teeth to move, they need to become mobile. That may not be earth-shattering news, but basically, what you’re doing is taking away the apparatus that keeps your mobile teeth where they need to be when you take out your aligner. If it’s out for an hour, that’s not a huge deal. You take it out for most of the day and, not surprisingly, your teeth start to move back to where they were or wherever it is they feel they need to be… and then you try to nudge them back to where you want them for a few hours at night.

Go with Invisalign

Guess how many BBB complaints Align Technology, parent of Invisalign, has accumulated within its 22 years in business. The answer: five, and only one in the past year. In all fairness, the company does not treat patients and those five complaints were from people who had issues; one whose practice closed and still wanted treatment, another who was deployed overseas and couldn’t finish. There are no dentists complaining about a faulty product either. The BBB pages are like night and day… literally.

True, you may have some trouble speaking when you first get Invisalign. You will get used to wearing the aligners and they won’t be an issue. The more you wear them and practice, the easier it will become. If, in the early days, you really can’t do phone calls with them in, talk to your dentist about popping them out them. Best of luck to you.

Can You Get Invisalign with a Crown?

by

invisalign with crown patient aligner

Are regular braces or Invisalign better when you have a crown? Or are orthodontics even an option at all? I’m 34 and have one crown on a molar—it’s a CEREC crown if that matters. I was looking through the site and found information on what happens when you need to have a crown done during Invisalign treatment, but this is different because I haven’t even started anything yet. And for what it’s worth, my teeth aren’t super crooked or anything. I just have some crowding going on with my lower teeth.

Thanks,

Jake

 

Dear Jake,

The information is roughly the same, but let’s break it down.

Yes, You Can Get Invisalign with a Crown

Orthodontic work usually gets a green light even if you have restorative work. It’s a little more debatable if you have root canals or other things going on. Those teeth might not respond well to moving. However, if the teeth are monitored, even that should be ok. Your dentist may take additional precautionary measures in those situations, but that doesn’t apply to your situation anyway. You’re in the clear.

It Doesn’t Matter if it’s a CEREC Crown or Any Other Type

The biggest concern is that the tooth is healthy and the CEREC crown still has a good seal on it. As look as the restoration and tooth are in good condition, it’s fine. This applies to all types of crowns, whether we’re talking CEREC, porcelain, metal, or any other variety.

Invisalign Tops Braces When You Have a Crown

The problem with traditional braces and crowns is that it can be harder to get the brackets to bond to the crown. Since Invisalign doesn’t usually require any bonding unless you need attachments/ buttons, it’s often the more ideal solution for people with restorations.

You Might Need Adjustments When Treatment is Finished

Sometimes shifting teeth can result in the need for adjustments to the crown after. When we’re talking about a back tooth like yours, it’s probably just minor bite adjustments. However, sometimes, the crown ultimately needs to be replaced at the end of orthodontic treatment and occasionally, other techniques may be necessary, such as recontouring the gumline to create a more uniform smile. That wouldn’t be the case with yours, as it’s not in a highly visible spot, but it’s worth mentioning.

Start with a Consultation

Hopefully, this set your mind at ease a bit, but you’ll still need to have a consult with a local dentist to find out the specifics of your treatment. Clear braces are great in the sense that your whole mouth is literally mapped out ahead of time, so your dentist will know exactly what your alignment and bite will be like when you finish and can let you know if you’ll need to take additional steps after you finish ortho.

Dentist Says Invisalign Caused Toothache and Not a Concern

by

Man Calling Emergency Dentist for Invisalign Tooth Pain

I just started Invisalign two months ago and had a horrible toothache flare up a few days ago. I called my dentist and they told me that it was normal to have some discomfort when you start treatment or switch aligners. I asked if the doctor could look at it and they told me just to take ibuprofen and monitor it for a few days. I understand that orthodontics can sometimes cause tooth pain, but I don’t think that’s what this is and I told them that. It’s a single tooth that’s throbbing. I’ve had some pretty bad cavities in the past and that’s what this feels like.

 

I don’t know if they reviewed my x-rays or whatever before they talked to me. I do go in for regular checkups and they just took a full set a month or so before we started treatment. I kind of understand it if they’ve already got all the info they need, but I’m a little upset they won’t even look at it. They totally dismissed me. Is this something I can trust their judgment on and just monitor or should I just go down there and insist on being seen? Or find another local dentist to check it out?

Thanks,

Wally

 

Dear Wally,

You should either be seen by the dentist providing your Invisalign treatment or find another dentist to give a second opinion.

General Discomfort is Normal with Invisalign, Toothaches are Not

The achy feeling people get when they go through orthodontic treatment is generally from the ligaments stretching, though sometimes the teeth, themselves, can become irritated too. If one tooth is being tugged on more than others, you might feel some localized discomfort, but it really tends to be more generalized, where you can’t pinpoint which tooth it’s coming from.

Sharp or Throbbing Tooth Pain Needs to Be Checked Out ASAP

The type of pain you’re describing is not usually associated with orthodontic treatment. However, as you noted it is common when you’ve got a cavity. While something like that should have been discovered during your last exam and would likely be evidenced on your most recent x-rays, sometimes decay can be elusive. There are other causes for it too. For example, you could have cracked the tooth or it could have been injured and is now infected. These are things you do not want to take a wait-and-see approach with. It’s a bit alarming that your dental office didn’t volunteer to bring you in, let alone honor your request to be seen. Try them again, but this time, make sure it’s crystal clear what symptoms you’re experiencing and that you want to see the doctor. If they don’t jump right in and get you scheduled in the next 24 hours, you should find someone who will, and maybe even consider staying with that office if they treat you well.

Best of luck to you.

Does Billie Eilish Really Wear Invisalign?

by

Billie Eilish showing off her Invisalign

At the start of her Bad Guy video, Billie Eilish makes a reference to taking out her Invisalign. She has beautiful teeth and it doesn’t look like she needs to wear braces. Is this some kind of publicity stunt? Or does she actually need to wear them?

Thx

K

 

Dear K,

Billie Eilish really does wear Invisalign. She’s actually shared photos of herself with her aligners and both she and her family have publicly spoken about her use of them.

The Invisalign Reference in “Bad Guy” is a Bit of an Inside Joke

“It became this kind of running joke with me and Bill, ‘cause we’d record, and she has been wearing Invisalign for like a year-and-a-half now,” Billie’s brother Finneas explained to Vulture. He says the starlet speaks with a bit of a lisp when she’s wearing her aligners, but that she’s so accustomed to wearing them that she forgets to take them out. Of course, she remembers when she starts singing, so popping them out mid-recording became commonplace. And, as anyone who’s ever worn the clear braces knows, they’re snug. There tends to be a soft click as the plastic releases. Finneas picked up on it and recalls telling her, “Billie, this is gonna be your version of the Lil Wayne lighter flick.”

During recording, the two mostly laughed about whether she’d remembered to remove her aligners before the session, but kind of left it at that. “When we were wrapping it up, I felt like the album was pretty dark and covered a lot of heavy stuff,” Finneas explained, giving a nod to songs like Bury a Friend. He wanted to add an element of humor to complement the darkness, not just to lighten the mood, but to heighten the seriousness of the other parts. Because the pair already had recordings of her popping out the aligners, it was easy to add the sound into the song.

You’ll Get More Dental Sounds in “Bury a Friend” Too

Interestingly, the infamous click not the only dental-oriented sound incorporated in her album. Bury a Friend has a recording of her dentist’s handpiece; the tool used to remove her attachments, according to the New York Times. “Attachments” or “buttons” are small dots of white dental material—the same kind used for tooth fillings—which are sometimes placed on the surface of teeth during treatment to help them move better. This is also one of the reasons why Billie’s click as she removes her aligners is a bit more pronounced. However, as was the case with Billie, the attachments are removed easily by the dentist when they’re no longer needed.

If You Look at Older Photos, You Can See What She’s Trying to Correct

The only people who really know what Billie wanted to correct with orthodontics are Billie and her dentist, but if you look at some of her older pictures (even back then it was hard to catch her smiling!), you can see a couple small spots which could be cause for orthodontics. For example, she’s got a tiny gap next to her front tooth on her left side. Some images also indicate that her midline might have been slightly off-center as well. Of course, after a year-and-a-half of treatment, these may already be totally vanquished or pretty close to it. Perhaps now we’ll get to see more of that beautiful smile of hers!

Can My Elgin Dentist Straighten My Teeth in 6 Months Like the Ads?

by

calendar for elgin dentist blog

To give a little background, I saw a dentist here in Elgin about a year and a half ago about straightening my teeth. I’ve got a large gap between my front teeth and the third tooth back from the middle (the pointy one… I don’t know the official name for it) is twisted a bit. The rest could probably do with a little help as well, but those are the areas that really bother me. Anyway, I was told that I would need to do traditional braces and that the process would probably take just over a year. Well, I want to fix the cosmetic issue, not highlight it with huge metal brackets. I’m not up for all that.

Lately, I’ve been seeing ads online promoting clear braces and saying it only takes six months for them to work. But, they seem to only be offered as an online thing, and I’m not comfortable with that. I want to see someone in person. So, I’m wondering if any local dentists are using a system like what I’m seeing in the ads or if I really just need to suck it up and order online to get this done.

Thanks,

Karina

 

Dear Karina,

This is a great question. Loads of companies are promoting their clear braces online, so it’s tough to say which company’s ad you saw, but let’s break down what they’re offering and what it would take to get you the results you want.

Clear Braces Often Go by the Trade Name Invisalign

The Invisalign company is probably the biggest and longest-running name in the clear braces market. They’ve been around since the 1990s really brought the concept to light. Their claim to fame is that they created metal-free braces, which appealed to adults who wanted straighter teeth without looking like “kids.” Of course, since then, they’ve refined their approach, upgraded the technology, enhanced their aligners, updated materials, and all sorts of other things. Now, they appeal to all sorts of people and there’s even a special line for teens. Plus, people started to realize that sometimes treatment goes faster when you’re using aligners instead of brackets, simply because force is applied all around the tooth instead of just where the bracket is attached.

The Marketplace is Filled with Invisalign Copycats

Naturally, when you’re onto something good, people will start to copycat your idea. But, Invisalign has taken steps to protect their inventions. Even the material they use to make the aligners is patented. That in mind, there’s no real substitution for Invisalign, but some model their products after it.

You Don’t Get Oversight When You Order Online

Perhaps what most concerning, though, is that many places are now selling their clear braces online. The degree of supervision varies. Some simply have you take snapshots and then do a mold of your teeth at home. After that, you’re on your own. Others involve going into a physical location where an assistant of sorts takes pictures, x-rays, and the mold, then forwards them to a dentist somewhere. Again, you’re often left on your own after that and you never meet the dentist in person. And, there are at least a couple brands that have you do a video conference with a dentist. Let’s be clear here. You can’t tell a whole lot from photos and videos. They’re helpful, but orthodontics involves incredibly small movements. Chances are, the gap between your front teeth is only a millimeter or two. That in mind, you really need someone with expertise planning out your treatment, monitoring you throughout, and making adjustments as necessary. So, you are right to have concerns about going though the process online.

Six-Month Braces Are a Bit of a Pipedream

Yes, clear braces do often work quicker than metal ones, but most people don’t get results in six months. Some marketers glommed onto that concept because it is technically possible, but it’s usually only within the realm of reason for those who have already had orthodontic treatment and those who have fairly straight teeth to begin with. If you’ve already been told it will take more than a year to straighten your teeth with metal braces, odds are, even if you’re a candidate for clear ones, you may only shave a month or two off the timeline. And, that’s a big maybe.

Speak with an Elgin Dentist About Clear Braces

It sounds like you saw an orthodontist before. Many still gravitate toward metal braces, especially if they’ve been in practice for an extended period of time. It makes sense that they’d work with something they know really well and trust. At the same time, many general dentists offer Invisalign treatment. You may have more luck visiting a family practice. However, there is some chance, given the twisted tooth you mentioned, that you really aren’t a candidate for clear braces. That’s one of the downsides of following the ads—they don’t know you and they may well give you a treatment that won’t work for your situation. If that’s the case, and multiple offices tell you metal is the way to go, that may be the only solution for you. If you feel disenchanted by the process, bear in mind that, if you would have started when braces were first recommended, you’d be done already instead of living with a smile you aren’t happy with. You may not like the idea of going with them, but chances are, you won’t ever regret having leveraged them once treatment is over and you’re enjoying your new smile.
