Which Is Less Likely to Affect My Speech – Invisalign or Incognito?

July 21st, 2014
Q.

Hello Dr Qureshi. I know I need braces but I don’t want them to be visible, so I’ve done some research into discreet orthodontic systems. However, I’d like to know your opinion on the difference between Incogntio and Invisalign – which is most comfortable? I know a girl from my local gym had braces but they cause her a lot of pain and discomfort, as well as her speech being impaired. I work in a coffee shop and spend all day talking to customers, so it’s important that my speech isn’t affected. Thank you.

What’s The Difference Between Lingual Braces And Invisalign?

May 6th, 2014
Q.

Hi Dr. Qureshi, I wondered if you could help me. I have had terrible teeth for many years, they are crooked and horrible to look at and have decided to get braces to straighten them out. I’ve been looking at lingual braces and also at Invisalign, what’s the difference? I know a few celebrities have used Invisalign so it intrigued me, however I do like the sound of lingual braces. Which would be best for me? Thank you.

Which Brace System Would Be Best Closing A Gap Between My Teeth In A Short Amount Of Time?

April 24th, 2014
Q.

Hello Dr Qureshi. I really hope you can offer your advice. I have a gap in my front teeth and it really bugs me. I would like to know if Invisalign would work for me. Ideally I’d like to have clear braces but I would go with the Damon braces or Inman Aligner if that would work faster. I have a wedding to go to in the next eight months and I’d like it sorted by then. What would be the best option? I hope to hear from you soon. Thank you for your time.

Will I Be Charged For A Replacement Invisalign Aligner?

April 1st, 2014
Q.

Hi Dr. Qureshi, I’m wondering if you could help me. I stood on my Invisalign aligner by accident. It fell out of my mouth as I was putting it in and I just stepped on it. It’s completely snapped. I’m not keen on my dentist, I feel as though he lectures me and I don’t want to go back just for him to be angry at me and tell me I have to pay a lot of money for a new replacement. Will I be charged for the replacement of this particular set of aligners? Thanks in advance for your help!

Hey Doctor Patel, I’ve Developed A Sore Throat After Wearing Invisalign. Why Is This This?

December 23rd, 2013
Q.

Hey Doctor I have what I’m sure is a common problem that you could help me out with. Basically about 3 weeks ago I started on my Invisalign treatment. It was fine for the first couple of days but then I noticed that I had a slightly raw throat. I thought that this was just a bug that I’d get over so left it but it hasn’t got any better, it has in fact got worse. I’ve only just read that there are potential toxic reactions in some people so now I’m worried. Can you shed some light on this situation? Should I continue with the treatment or am I at risk of the problem getting worse if I do? Hope to hear from you soon. Thanks.

As A Model I Can’t Have Fixed Braces, What Do You Recommend?

July 29th, 2013
Q.

Hi Dr Qureshi. As a woman you’ll understand the importance of looks, especially these days. I’m applying to be a model currently and I’ve had a few remarks about my teeth. My two front teeth contain a small gap but they also stick out ever so slightly, my dentist has said I have an overbite. In order for me to succeed with the modelling I’m going to need braces. The thing is, I can’t have anything fixed because of the work I’ll be doing. Can you please suggest a type of brace for me that will be suitable? And could you please give me an idea of how long I’ll have to wear them for? Thank you for your time.

Should I Have My Teeth Whitened Before Or After Invisalign Treatment?

April 24th, 2013
Q.

Hello, I’m just making a enquiry in regards to the invisalign system. Basically, my teeth are quite dull and I am planning on getting them whitened in the very near future. I also require invisible braces, I have a consultation next week basically I am suffering from some overcrowding and a slight cross bite. Just a heads up would be fantastic…should I have my teeth whitened before I get the braces or after? I want to ensure that I get the brightest possible smile but don’t want any marks left by the braces if I have them whitened beforehand. Do you know of any practices that offer free whitening with their brace treatments? I had a friend who had whitening with her braces but they don’t do it anymore…Thank you in advance!!
