I went to visit a few orthodontists and found one that told me
I wouldn't have to extract my bicuspids, but should remove my wisdom teeth.
So I paid the fee, had my wisdom teeth extracted.
On returning, the orthodontist said I needed to either
extract my bicuspids or shave down my teeth 2mm each.
I consulted various other orthodontist, and received various opinions.
All of them said, I have severe crowding in front
and I should extract my bicuspids.
Some say the invisiline braces won't work and my teeth would relapse.
Also, it would affect my speech as I would feel the inner edge of the braces.
Some say the only way to straighten them would be to use
the old fashion wired braces.
Does anyone have any idea how the invisiline braces work?
Is it possible for me not to undergo further extraction or shaving my teeth down?
And would it be better for me to use the invisiline or traditional braces?
