Years of excessively loud headphone use
The older I get the more I despise the idea of having metal in my mouth to straighten my teeth. I don't like the idea of going through university with braces. So I'd rather opt for Invisalign. In a year or so. Has anyone here gotten Invisalign? If so let me know if the process involved anything loud like drilling. (Likely not but I'd like to know)

I also have a chipped tooth. One of my two top front teeth is chipped. It isn't significant but I'd like to have some type of filling done to make it look more natural. Anyone know if that involves any kind of drilling etc?

For me it did involve loud drilling. They cleaned my teeth with a very loud ultrasonic cleaning device and they apply attachments to your teeth with glue. Invisalign now requires attachments for the teeth to move in the proper position. Once the treatment is done all the attachments needs to be removed by a ultrasonic cleaner aswell.
 
Invisalign does not work well, it's only for selected cases & for small problems.

Go for braces...

Yes, removing Invisalign attachments is LOUD. I do not recommend it.
