While Invisalign is a fantastic option for straightening teeth discreetly and comfortably, some teeth can be a bit more stubborn when it comes to movement. In general, the molars, especially the wisdom teeth, are the most difficult to shift with Invisalign aligners.
Molars have multiple roots and are located in the back of your mouth. Because of their size and strong anchorage in the jawbone, they require more force and time to reposition. Wisdom teeth are particularly tricky. Not only are they harder to move, but in many cases, they may not be ideal candidates for movement at all. Removal may be recommended before starting treatment if they’re impacted or crowding other teeth.
Front teeth, like incisors and canines, tend to move more easily and show faster results, so patients often notice visible changes there first. Invisalign has come a long way with technological advances, and even complex cases can be managed with attachments or additional tools.
