has anyone had jaw surgery in Invisalign?
« on: April 05, 2015, 03:41:40 PM »
hello!

I am scheduled to have jaw surgery (BSSO) after a year in Invisalign. my orthodontist coordinates with a few surgeons in my area that keep patients in Invisalign before, during, and after surgery and use TADs to anchor for banding the jaw closed. this is also the plan for my jaw surgery journey. has anyone experienced a jaw surgery in Invisalign?

Yes, I'm five months into Invisalign orthodontic treatment, having had Surgery First in November. Teeth move faster after surgery.
