A few weeks into Invisalign, you wiggle a tooth with your tongue and it moves a tiny bit. It's a little alarming, and you start to wonder if something's wrong.
A slight looseness is a normal part of Invisalign. For teeth to shift, the tissue holding them softens a little as they move. Once treatment is finished and you wear your retainers, your teeth firm up again in their new position.
Just Smiles Dentistry checks how your teeth are responding at every Invisalign check-in.
