Yesterday I had a regular visit at the orthodontist. He said that it seems like my teeth are where they should be at this point according to the computer model. He was a little concerned about my repeatedly stubborn tooth maybe not tracking already. He advised me to make sure that the tooth fills the air bubble before switching out aligners, even if that means wearing them for an extra couple days.
I asked what would happen if it didn't cooperate again, and he said that we may end up having to "do some bracing." Apparently, pulling a tooth down is a particularly difficult move for Invisalign, but is a really simple one for traditional braces. He said that after 10 more weeks of Invisalign, if that tooth still isn't where it should be, I may have to have braces for a few months. He made sure to reiterate that this would be at no additional cost.
But seriously? I might have to get braces after I'm done with my braces?
