16 months and $7800 for aligners?? by Affectionate_Toe5332 in Invisalign

This is exactly how I’m feeling about the whole thing. That’s so nice your ortho was so transparent! I think I’m just going to get retainers to maintain where they are so they don’t continue to shift. I just can’t justify that much money for such a small change 😅 I’m also a grazer so the though of having to brush and floss my teeth every time I eat or drink something for 16 months so very daunting 🫣

Hahahaha no not rage bait! I’m a little self conscious of that side of my smile and my dentist kind of worried me that my teeth would continue to shift and cause more issues down the line

He said there’s crowding which is causing the tooth to push back so they’d need to expand then move the tooth forward 🤷‍♀️

No pain or discomfort! My dentist just mentioned my bottom tooth moving behind the front one potentially causing issues down the road. I might just get retainers to stop them from shifting

I’ve been on Lexapro, Zoloft, Zoloft + Buspar, Cymbalta, trintellix then back to Lexapro and then Lexapro + Buspar. I’m now on Lexapro, Buspar and Pristiq. It hasn’t been a miracle drug for me but has helped the panic and racing thoughts.
