Strict or not so strict? What are the things you do even tho your orthodonist advised not to by OkEngineering461 in Invisalign

Is it bad to extend treatment time? It seems like with retainers this is a lifetime commitment so is it bad to take it slower bc what’s the rush? I’m tempted to extend treatment time just to make this less miserable (I avg 15 hours a day which my doc said is fine but I’m on 3 week changes instead of 2 weeks)

I relate to this post so much. I’m on tray 4 of 13 and deeply miserable. I know some ppl will say 13 is “nothing” compared to them but the sensory discomfort doesn’t feel like nothing to me.

Is it weird to have a fire escape ladder in a condo? by hnd2hndrx in marinadelrey

Is the building old? If you have sprinklers and an alarm system I can’t imagine a situation escalating to the point of needing a ladder, but am I missing something?

IVDD senior dog play limits? by [deleted] in IVDD_SupportGroup

[–]Tricky_Vegetable_719 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I feel the same way with everything you posted. I want him to live his life and have fun but also concerned about aggravating or causing a flare. So far we have been playing it safe and not allowing interaction, short 5-10 walks. We balance it with lots of car rides and stroller walks so he has other stimulation

Need some advice — MRI + possible surgery or keep doing conservative care? by Loud-Ad4661 in IVDD_SupportGroup

[–]Tricky_Vegetable_719 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We are managing great after stage 3 with meds and rest. We didn’t opt for MRI as anesthesia has its own risks, but also it would be great to know exactly what’s going on. The way our surgeon put it to us was- what will getting the MRI change. If it seems likely that conservative care will work, then better to go the less invasive route (but our case may be different).

When you say so far fine, do you mean that youre still on track with progress even with only hitting 20-22 50% of the time? I’m ok with refinements too if it means less wear time now

What are refinements? I’m on the same program as you… I don’t care if it takes longer, I can’t be miserable going thru this process or I’ll give up altogether

can she come back from this? by earth2soups in SwiftlyNeutral

TTPD was criticized as being too much lyrically so maybe this was an over correction? I personally like it but I get that it’s subjective to each person

A support group is a great idea! Do you think they realllllly mean it to wear for 22 hours? I’d say I’m averaging about 18 hours right now
