    Hopefully your bite can be sorted Midlessswirl, although this is rarely something that can be done with invisalign. Are you sure you have a true class III bite, or are you over compensating and not biting together correctly?

    Good luck with seeing your ortho after you get back from vacation and make sure you wear your retainers as long as possible each day!

    my bottom left canine tooth wasnt rotated enough with invisalign and is actually perfectly aligned on the part not fully rotated enough with the top tooth causing them to hit each other instead of the top lateral incisor being in front of the tooth... the canine just needs to be rotated just a bit so the bite will be normal

    Hopefully that rotation can be done without the need for going beyond invisalign, but talk to your ortho to hear what your options are.

    Invisalign is getting better at treating rotations, but it's still limited, due to the type of treatment it offers.

    Good luck!
