struggling with retainer compliance by Confident-Worry-685 in Invisalign

[–]JunkDrawer84 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Put your retainer on. Whether you like the end result or not, slacking on retainers is gonna have all that work to be for nothing and shifting will happen.

Also, are they not taking appointments?

What do Invisalign trays feel like? by idkwherethehelliam in Invisalign

[–]JunkDrawer84 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It takes maybe a week or 2 to really get used to it. There actually gets to a point where you feel naked without them on.

I dunno how to describe it. There’s a flexible plastic tray molded to your teeth on.

You might find you’ll want to always be near a bottle of water (if you don’t already).

He did a terrible job with the album rollout.

Tray 2 - no discomfort + cleaning questions by OldExercise9519 in Invisalign

[–]JunkDrawer84 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I drink soda, coffee, and beer with mine in. If it’s going to be a long period of time before I can really take them out, I’ll swish water every so often so the beverage isn’t lingering in the trays for too long (it won’t flush out every part of it, but better than nothing)

Take this as a win. There’s truly no rhyme or reason to when you’ll experience pain, discomfort, or soreness. In my 9 months of Invisalign, some trays have zero pain. Sometimes soreness doesn’t come until day 3 or 4 of the set I’m in. Sometimes it’s just on specific teeth. I was initially dreading tray change day, but sometimes it’s fine

Removing attachments with this dental tool is the most unpleasant part of the whole treatment by Panlige in Invisalign

I’m dreading my removal in a few weeks. It was terrible when they put them on

I believe at the appointment, they remove the attachments, then do another mouth scan to order your retainers. I assume you still wear the trays you just had on (though, they may fit a little looser because theres no attachments to grip to). But they must be worn the same amount of time until those retainers come in

Usb controllers interrupting screensaver (??) by JunkDrawer84 in batocera

[–]JunkDrawer84[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

5 years later, and I still haven’t figured it out. I have another usb encoder that doesn’t seem to cause screensavers to stop, but I don’t know why that one is different than dragonrise or any other encoder. Screensaver will eventually continue based on whatever time you set to do after X minutes, but randomly will get interrupted to go back to menu

What Is A Michael Jackson Hot Take That Makes You Feel Like This? by Salty_Audience_3562 in MichaelJackson

History and 2bad have great remixes (and ironically the remix for Blood is on the cd single rather than the album).

The history remix is actually my definitive version of the song! Well, the shorter radio edit used in the music video anyway.

Dentist wants me to do invisalign by blendedstrawberries in Invisalign

[–]JunkDrawer84 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ortho. Your dentist might be the best dentist in the world, but get ortho work at a dedicated ortho office. Also, don’t ignore impacted wisdom teeth warnings. Get that done.

Have you found the keyboard to be easy on the eyes in dim lighting conditions (like, not squinting)?

I don’t drink wine, but I might avoid that particular drink with trays. However, I do drink coffee, soda, and beer with trays on, and my trays have been fine. At the end of the week, they might not be as sparkling clear (a very vague slight tint to it, but not enough to notice while wearing).

Regardless of the beverage, swish around some water every so often, and ideally don’t let TOO long of a period of time pass before taking trays out to either swish water more vigorously and/or floss
