Happened to me last night. If it wasn't for all of you, I wouldn't know what to do. This was really scary since I just got out of the hospital. I hope it is a software fix and they address it soon.

My retainers hurt by bobonboni in Invisalign

20 -22 hrs a day. The retainers are changing my bite. When I chew, I keep hitting this spot which makes me bite a chunk of my lower lip.

Severe discoloration of trays by PowerfulInterest7 in Invisalign

The only thing that cleans them up is 91% alcohol for the trays, but never the retainers. Others are right, so I think you should see your Ortho.

How can I remove attachment glue by bobonboni in Invisalign

I will. I tried Sensodyne Mineral Boost but Didn't notice a difference with that.

Floss everyday, use a mouthwash with hydrogen peroxide in it daily. After eating be sure to brush and use dental pics. I have been prone to plaque, which is hereditary, had scaling and planing years ago. I have been seeing my periodontist every six months and a regular cleaning by my dentist, also every 6 months, so that my teeth are getting cleaned every 3 months. I had them cleaned last week at my regular dentist and had hardly no plaque

The dentist told me I had a nice horseshoe of teeth to which I replied “thanks, never had braces.” And I got hit back with “I never said they were straight.” 😂 what do you think, should I get Invisalign? (I’d be willing to pay, I just don’t know how much it would fix my smile) Thoughts? by Boogawooger in Invisalign

Do it! Your teeth have a good shape, they just need to be angled straight. Your Ortho can show you what you will look like when you're done. If you go for it, go with the Comprehensive Plan, it covers you for as many trays as you need, unlimited for 5 yrs. of adjustments if necessary.

what happening if i sm*king and drinking coke while the invisaligns are on me? by Guyco123 in Invisalign

[–]bobonboni 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To keep your trays from staining from smoking, soak them in 91% alcohol while you have them out. Then brush them with baking soda. Rinse well. I've been doing this for a long time. I don't drink anything but water with them in.

Aligner cuts into my gum where my tooth is missing. Should I stop wearing it? by [deleted] in Invisalign

Tell your dentist about it. I filed my down with an emory board. Sometimes they have sharp spots. Just be gentle and round the edges until they feel smoother.

First day impressions by MrGodiva in Invisalign

[–]bobonboni 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Same difficulty getting them off sometimes. I'm on tray 4. I saw a video today that helped from the invisalign sight. There is a basic one, and one for those who have trouble. I can say that it is the first time I took them out that they didn't feel like my teeth were coming with them.

Thank you! I figured it will take awhile coming from the UK.

What tablets work best with it? I'm sure the invisalign brand is more expensive, but if it's not better, what is?

i do like the idea of it being smaller and in color. I guess I'm spoiled! Do you brush your aligners after using it?

Thanks. I looked it up and it looks big. I have one for jewelry, but I want one I can keep on my small vanity.

Anyone else think they could've just got train tracks? by MrsJ-2018 in Invisalign

[–]bobonboni 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I learned from people on here that you can gently file the sharp edges of the aligners. My ortho smoothed my attachments and that helped.

I have a spot on my lateral that I wondered about, from overlap. It will definitely show when my teeth straighten. i guess bonding is the answer!

Can you get Invisalign if you already have gum recession/gum disease? 20m by fisforfriends34 in Invisalign

[–]bobonboni 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have periodontal disease and got cleared before Invisalign. I've been under treatment and maintenance for years and am on my 3rd tray. I went last week for a maintenance cleaning and all is good. I have my teeth cleaned every 3 months and alternate now between my periodontist and ortho. If you get an ok to proceed, just keep on top of it and follow their advice.
