    Retainer vs Invisiline
    I have one tooth in the front that has rotated and needs to be corrected. I don't want to wear braces, but was given the choice of wearing either a retainer or going with invisiline. Which would be a better option?:D

    It depends how often you want to have impressions taken. With invisalign you will have to have impressions taken often. If it's a lower tooth then go with invisalign since lower impressions are easy to have taken, if it's an upper and you have a strong gag reflex you might want to go with a retainer since it will mean probably only one impression to be taken.
    Either way you'll have success.
    Good luck.
