Good and healthy teeth with crowns can still be treated with Invisalign. The aligners are custom-made to fit over the teeth, including those with crowns, and can effectively move them into alignment. However, it's essential for the crowns to be securely bonded and in good condition to ensure successful treatment outcomes. Consulting with an orthodontist can help determine the suitability of Invisalign for treating teeth with crowns and develop a personalized treatment plan.
Yes, seek an evaluation from a board certified orthodontist to get specific information about your case.
Yes, you can get Invisalign treatment with crown
The simple answer, yes you can. However, the attachments (buttons) do not bond well to crowns, so it can affect the treatment planning. If you havent gotten the crown but plan to, it is important to include the orthodontist in the treatment planning. If the crown can be delayed, it is often better to do Invisalign or braces before the crown to get proper tooth and bite alignment. Best, Glenn P. Frial, DDS, MS, APC
