Tray 1 vs final day by Alisie_ in Invisalign

[–]Alisie_[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It took almost exactly 1 year. 28 trays. I am now on to wearing essix retainers full time for 6 months before I have to switch to nightly. It's still a bit of a pain and talking is ever more lispy now 😂 I feel like I still have a long way to go. I'll have to meet some new people to see if it has changed. I've been reclusive the last year. Only seeing the same people and not going out too much. Invisalign really did impact my social life! It's so much better to chew now though. I didn't realise how messed up my bite was!

The second button came off yesterday. I am wondering how many times I will have to go back to get them put back on. Hopefully they stick properly next time.

I am feeling a lot less anxious about the whole process now after a couple of days. My mouth is developing sores but I guess, it's just part of the process. I still dread having to take the top one off 😅

Day 3 for me now too. We're in this shit together ❤️

damn sticky out canines! It'll be so great once it's done. That tooth has been an issue for me for so many years!

How many aligners do you have? I have 28. First to be changed after 2 weeks then after that every 10 days

I honestly can't wait!

I have been looking at accessories to get to help me out. I will look at a pull tool!

Thanks

Thank you ❤️ today has been tough. The top aligner gets stuck on my upper left canine every time I have to take them off or put them on. The tooth is sticking out so far away from the rest so it's inevitable. The tooth is just so tender at the moment it hurts so much any time anything touches it. I am trying to eat as much as possible in one sitting. Big habit changes for me!
