I'd been told by two general dentists that Invisalign 'probably wouldn't work' for me. Dr. Kapoor mapped the whole plan in our first visit, gave me a number, and finished a month ahead of it.
Maya R.Tribeca · Invisalign · 9 months
Lingual was the only option I'd consider given my work. The team was unusually direct about what to expect — including the discomfort in the first two weeks — which I appreciated.
