So it is\nsafe to say that we know what we&#8217;re doing when it comes to realignment with\nthis method!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Remember this list is not extensive and is a\ngeneral guide; if you would like more advice on contraindicated health\nconditions and the use of <strong>Invisalign London<\/strong>,\nplease seek out a consultation with our team. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Gum disease<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When it comes to dental conditions that can be a\nhazard for dental realignment, gum disease is at the top of the list.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>And when you are contemplating using <strong>Invisalign London<\/strong>, it is important to be screened for signs of gum disease. Gum\ndisease can cause your teeth to become loose or fall out altogether, which is\ngoing to be problematic when it comes to moving your teeth.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If our team detects signs of gum disease at your\ninitial meeting with us, we will suggest that you have this treated before\nattempting any orthodontic work.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Prior dental work<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As unfortunate as it is, there are some examples\nof dental work that can limit the use of invisible aligners.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>And one of these is a fitted bridge; as a bridge\nrelies on the surrounding teeth to be stable, it can be difficult to move them\neffectively using any orthodontic tool. In a similar vein, if you have had a\ndental implant fitted, this can complicate any orthodontics procedure that you\nmay want to undertake. While it may not preclude you from the use of invisible\naligners, it will require the careful guidance of our team to ensure the\ntreatment is completed without any problem.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Cavities<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Cavities are somewhat common and if due to the\nrecent pandemic you have missed a couple of dental appointments, it is quite\nlikely that you may have a few teeth that need filling!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Luckily, cavities are easily treated and our team\nwill be able to solve this condition usually in a single appointment, after\nwhich you can begin the treatment with invisible aligners.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Similarly, if you have concerns that one of your\nfillings or your crown is loose, it is worth contacting our team about this\nbefore undertaking any orthodontic work.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Osteoporosis<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Osteoporosis can cause an issue with the thinning of the jaw and this, in turn, can be extremely detrimental when it comes to moving teeth, as it can cause them to fall out. Which is not the look you&#8217;re going for when you undertake an orthodontic realignment procedure! <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you have osteoporosis and would like to consider having your teeth realigned, please contact our team for more advice and seek out guidance from your doctor. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>If you are considering approaching our team to begin treatment with invisible aligners, it may be worth having a clear idea of the health issues that may make this treatment difficult.
