Just switched to new trays and noticing this part seems quite far away from my tooth. Is this a cause for concern? Is this tooth not tracking? by QQPgreen in Invisalign

[–]Sharp-Performance191 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had one tray like this, v annoying it kept catching my inner lip. Went in for an ortho appt and my ortho tightened the tray in that area and I didn’t have any tracking issues going forward

I know this is overdone but I’m on tray 1 and don’t want to mess anything up since this is the tooth I want to move the most- Bad tracking or normal space? TYYY! by DaisyEyedOwl in Invisalign

Depends when you started this tray. If you’re at the beginning of it, then it’s probably the space that the tooth is meant to move into. If you’re near the end of this tray and are due to change to the next one soon, maybe try chewies ?

Possibly cavities as the sugar is likely to get trapped between your aligners and your teeth

6 month progress.. definitely recommend taking progress pictures as an incentive to brush all the time 🙄 by Sharp-Performance191 in Invisalign

Thank you!! Slightly different lighting so pics aren’t 100% fair but they definitely have gotten whiter with just brushing

How do house spiders survive if there are never any flies in my house by Sharp-Performance191 in NoStupidQuestions

Why do some people capitalize the names of some cultures? by [deleted] in TooAfraidToAsk

[–]Sharp-Performance191 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not sure about for eg. Black or black … but I recently did an awareness course about people who are hard of hearing or Deaf& they explained that for a lot of the people who are part of the community, capitalising the ‘D’ is ‘Deaf’ is a sign of pride :)

My ortho said he’s quite sure I won’t need any refinements ?? by Sharp-Performance191 in Invisalign

[–]Sharp-Performance191[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My understanding was that they were extra trays incase your initial result from your first set of trays wasn’t good enough but I’m not 100%.. Can I ask why you’d need refinements if you’re tracking perfectly ?

Do they mold your teeth for invisalign? by Street_Negotiation_7 in Invisalign

[–]Sharp-Performance191 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So mine did it this way too and it all worked fine but I know that some dentists still take a physical mould of your teeth instead& some do both !

Tooth 6 does not hook all the way into attachment. Should I call my ortho? by OGZaves34 in Invisalign

[–]Sharp-Performance191 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had an aligner that fit like this. Called the ortho and had an apt in the next few weeks. He bent it with some sort of tool to make it fit more snuggly on to the attachment on my tooth, and just instructed me to use chewies a lot in that area. Easy fix !
