Invisalign gives you oral cancer?

A friend of mine told me they were in a dentist office and on the TV in the waiting area they were playing a video that said Invisalign gives a person oral cancer. Does anyone know if this is true or just a ruumor some dentists make up to make Invisalign sound bad?

i think your friend was just lying to you...

if it was true, it'd probably be sued by now.

Yikes I hope not!

Then wouldn't braces & retainers do it too?
Ask your dentist for the facts.
