Could aligners change the way I speak?+
Having something new over your teeth can feel odd when you talk. It’s difficult to say in advance how you’ll find it, so raise any concern that doesn’t ease.
Can I take my trays out for an important presentation?+
They come out for meals, drinks other than water and cleaning. Teeth only move while trays are worn, so ask how your prescribed schedule treats occasional exceptions.
How visible would my trays be on video?+
That varies with the lighting, the camera and whether you have attachments. You could ask to see the fitted trays in a mirror or on your own phone.
Can attachments go only on my back teeth?+
Their placement follows the movement that each tooth needs, so it can’t simply be chosen for looks. Ask what is planned and whether any alternatives exist.
Are braces out of the question for someone in my job?+
Not necessarily. Brackets are more visible, yet they need no remembering and offer direct control for a broad range of movements. Compare both for your own teeth.
Can I sip coffee between meetings with my trays in?+
Take them out first, as only plain water is generally fine with trays in place. Sugars or acids can otherwise be held against your teeth.
