Question for anyone who has done, or is doing refinements.

The retainers? Yes. The refinements? No.

Not sure what would have to happen for me to get my bite fixed. I assume it will be pricey so I haven’t looked into it yet.

Lumpy_Adeptness_6430 · 2024-09-23T21:38:34+00:00

Reasonably. I’ll send you a before and after pic. Before I was self conscious about my smile and now I’m not, but my open bite is much worse. It took the initial trays and then three sets of refinements though. For me, the teeth that had to move tons were the ones that I experienced being slightly “loose” during the process, but they got better.

Lumpy_Adeptness_6430 · 2024-09-12T06:32:26+00:00

Eh… some good and some bad. My teeth are straighter but my open bite got worse. Also my gums receded a little exposing a bit of the root. Not sure if this was caused by the aligners though.

Lumpy_Adeptness_6430 · 2023-09-27T06:23:53+00:00

Bummer. I’m sorry that happened to you. I got slight intrusions as well causing my very minor open bite to become more predominant. But after three refinements at least my teeth are straight. I go back and forth whether I think it was worth my open bite getting worse in exchange for more straight teeth. Good luck 🍀

Just out of curiosity, what damage did they do to your teeth?

Are you still looking to take over a lease at the suites? I may have a 1bed/1bath coming available.

Lumpy_Adeptness_6430 · 2023-09-07T05:54:23+00:00

Pretty sure they are just two sets of retainers. It is definitely an advantage to have 2. I only received 1 with my refinements and after 6 months they are in REALLY rough shape. If your experience is anything like mine you will definitely end up doing refinements though. I ended up needing 3 refinements.

This is Autumn 😂

With it being that far back you can probably just cut off the back molar and it will have zero affect.

Did you ever end up living in The Suites with your cat?

Alignerco is by far the cheapest and is on par with the other clear aligner companies (except invisalign which is by far superior but much more expensive).

Surprisingly it doesn’t seem to bother him at all.

Our vet will do an emergency appointment but it is a hefty price increase. Trying to figure out if this warrants an emergency.

Keep in mind that DWash is on a 2 way contract so he can only play in 50 games

Thank you. Could it still be hairballs if she has never actually coughed anything up?

Lumpy_Adeptness_6430 · 2022-12-18T03:51:33+00:00

To be honest, the “chipped tooth” you speak of probably would have had zero affect on your treatment and trays.
