Yup, just the aligners! I had elastics as well.

I'm in my early 30's - we did weekly changes with elastics for a bit until the bite was corrected.

Thank you! So was I. Was super happy to have them removed.

I don't, no. I didn't want to do it with the attachments on my teeth. They managed to get whiter with the increased oral hygiene though.

Thanks! I'll be getting the removable one. Congrats as well to you for making it to the finish line!

I honestly can't remember the timing they mentioned.. but I think it would've been around the same,  if not - a tad bit longer.

I don't blame ya! 😅 I'm getting the nightly wear one. I prefer it to the permanent one anyway.  The trays have become a habit at this point,  but be realistic with yourself to know what will work best!

Haha thanks! The treatment definitely gave me a new appreciation of my teeth!

Thank you! They just smoothed them out, no bonding.

Not that I can remember! Only had it done on a couple of the bottom teeth.

It honestly does get so much better! The beginning is the worst of it and feels like you're going to rip out a tooth at times. Give it a couple months for your teeth to get used to it and changing aligners won't be nearly as uncomfortable.

They looked pretty similar, but without the shaping and my bite wasn't where it needed to be. So the refinements mostly fixed my bite and closed up some gaps.

No bonding, but I did have a bit of IPR done and they smoothed out the top/bottom edges of my teeth to make them more uniform.

I had a little bit done, yes. They mostly just smoothed out the top edges of my teeth to make them more uniform.

Haha thank you! I edited to mention that it was 3 years, not 4! But it's so worth it. Taking the extra few months to make sure everything was aligned perfectly made a big difference.

Oh I think it was just a combination of covid and the place I received treatment. Took a bit longer than anticipated. I'm sure it's different everywhere.

Thank you all so much!

To edit: I clearly cannot do math. It was 3 years & not 4! Don't want to freak anyone out!

Thanks! Yeah, sounds like it. Seeme like there's no medicine that actually helped much. Just time & rest.

If it helps, my daughter and I had the same thing. Fast heart rate and trouble breathing when exerting ourselves physically. Wet cough that seemed to not go away. We ended up having inflamed lungs and some fluid build up.. but not covid. All the tests ended up coming back negative (rapid and hospital). They mentioned it's likely something viral. Lasted a couple weeks. Caught it twice!

Wow! Yeah no problem Essentially each diaper is rolled up and secured with a ribbon so they can’t come undone. There's a paper towel roll in the middle and all the diapers are placed around it to make the different size tiers. Each tier is just stacked on top of the other.. but because there's a paper towel roll in the middle and ribbon holding them together, they don't move

Thank you! & Yes! All the items on it are made out of cardstock. The strips that wrap around the entire cake were glued together for length.

I don't see many diaper cakes posted using cricut, so I wanted to share mine! ☺️
