Invisalign treatment is meant for teeth strengthening, and it can not change your facial structure, including your jaw. However, your aligners can cause some movement in your upper and lower jaw during your Invisalign treatment. While Invisalign aligners do not affect the shape of your jawbone, it gradually corrects the crowding and crossbite in your teeth. As a result, you might feel that Invisalign treatment has changed the condition of your jaw, but in reality, it is not the case.

However, if the upper or lower jaw has some issues due to an under or overbite, you can notice facial asymmetry. When you take Invisalign treatment, your aligners can fix the facial asymmetry by aligning the jaws and redefining your facial features, which is another cause that you might notice a difference in how your jaw appears before and after your Invisalign treatment.
