''No, Invisalign doesn't directly cause gum recession, but it can contribute if you have pre-existing gum disease, poor oral hygiene (plaque buildup), aggressive brushing, or ill-fitting aligners, leading to inflammation or uneven pressure that exposes tooth roots'' from google ai Yes, gum recession often involves bone recession because the gum tissue attaches to the underlying bone, so when the gum pulls back, the supporting bone usually recedes too, leading to exposed roots, tooth sensitivity, and potential tooth instability. pls just tell me I'm a idiot and can stop worrying about this

Shouldn’t do anything to your bones. That’s what braces do, retainers just hold it in place for the rest of your life. Just clean your teeth brah

Invisalign are not retainers Invisalign are clear aligners used to move your teeth into a new position.
