Invisilign braces and osteoporosis

[pfm250]

Anyone know if having osteoporosis would have a negative effect on having braces on teeth at 70 years old?

Im not sure about the osteoporosis risk but there would be a severe impact on gums and any movement of teeth changes the gum alignment on teeth as when you are older the gums are not flexible. Would obviously depend on extent of braces. I had them on in late 40s and gums never returned to normal and now have severe gum recession .

Hello, pfm 250. I don't have any specific advice for you but would recommend you ask your referring dentist and your orthodontist.
