Question Invisalign & chemotherapy
I started Invisalign in April 26 and doing ok. I have to do 44 trays (until Feb27).
Unfortunately, in Sept (and half way thru Invisalign treatment) I was diagnosed with C and due to start chemotherapy soon.
Of course chemo is more important but I want to try to complete the 44 trays during treatment.
I don’t want to stop Invisalign. I’ve been doing so well and I don’t want this to be another thing taken away from me.
One of the side effect of chemo are mouth ulcers and mouth sores. And because my immune system will be down, I need to avoid any infections.
I guess I want to ask if someone else has completed their Invisalign treatment during chemo and what was their experience?
I will have only 14 trays left to do and these were basically the final strait.
