Invisalign/Spark Tooth aligners/attachments?

Post by Jonathan Fowler »

Hi Everyone - I'm looking for a little guidance/advice. I just started a course of tooth straightening. Obviously couldn't do traditional braces, so settled with tray aligners (Spark is the brand that my ortho uses). The first 4 weeks are pretty gentle. I CAN play with them, but don't plan on doing any "high stakes" stuff with them in - solo recital, orchestra playing are definitely not going to work.
My concern is with the attachments - they will glue small buttons on my teeth to help the trays do their thing, most are fine, completely out of the way of my "playing area" - I'm concerned with one that will likely be under the MP rim on my top left.
Does anyone have experience playing with these attachments?
Is it doable?

Thanks for any help!

Jon
