Is Invisalign considered hardmaxing?

[wannaBProud]

I am getting $3990 Invisalign braces in a week which is the biggest investment yet for my ascension and possibly the best ROI out of every procedurces I have considered. Not only will my teeth be perfect but the thing that my orthodontist mentioned that made me slap my money on the table was:

"we will unlock your lower jaw, allowing it to naturally slide forward and give your lower face a stronger, more forward projection".

Basically like in the image in this post my central incisors and other teeth are physically holding back my jaw and having it in a unnatural recessed position. Will post results in approx 8 months if anyone wanna write it into their calendar.

not really, but i consider it in the same tier as accutane, it will change face.

Decompensated my bite which made my skeletal malocclusion visible and symptomatic. It's exactly what they do to prep for surgery but nigga they weren't prepping me for surgery.
I've had jaw and breathing issues for years because of it and only now I'm able to pursue a bimax.

Semi hardmaxx. I’m doing it rn and it’s changed my teeth a lot and I haven’t seen any recession

damn. its over. why are they retarded like that? it shouldnt be hard to create a treatment plan to make the patient look better. mine is ready, im just scared to start really

 

[evanappeal]

invisalign is non surgical and don’t permanently alter your face so no it’s considered a softmax

Overall invisalign is good, either makes you look good or shows you need surgery and prepares you for it; they should do a CBCT prior to treatment and if you do have skeletal malloclusion, wait until you're an appropriate age for surgery. That would've been preferable to making me quit sports and waste 2 prime years looking like a permajutting freak.
Just use caution and don't go into it blindly imo.

If you are above like 15 I hope this is satire or you are just sub 80 iq

The final structural outcome is medically designed to ascend you tho. I mean if you got a more recessed jaw thats one thing but it could not be that much, also aligned teeth and a nice smile is like a huge health indicator

Nice, recession is rare I would say but even if you get like a small recession the smile and teeth make up for it

[wannaBProud]

2 years I think. I’m only 7 months in, I’m gonna ask them if their gonna expand the dental arch a bit to show 8 teeth instead of 6

2 years! So was it like optional of your choice or did a dentist recommend it when doing a check-in? You can ask them but I mean they probably already have the 2 year plan already and to randomly change it seems strange. I was trying to get a palette expander before I got my invisalign but I didnt manage to do so they are to strict here unfortuantely

 

[JordanBarrettMogg]

Personally I don't think that it is a hardmax, because it doesnt change your face that much. I am also doing the invisalign treatment and the only noticeable thing is that my palate got a bit wider because of the fixes of my dental arch.

But yeah aesthetically the teeth and smile make up for a small recession. Also invisalign does show you what surgeries you need and prepares you for it. For me, they said i have a recessed chin and in terms of aesthetics I should at least do a genioplasty when i'm 18.

rn i am looking at a few more months of invisalign, then i'm getting them reshaped a bit (to be more symmetrical) and whitened.
