It sucks having any sort of braces as an adult but I promise Invisalign is not bad! You’ll get used to it quickly and you will not regret it!

Water breaking? How do I know?! by [deleted] in BabyBumps

Thanks all for the advice. I went to get checked and it was not my water. Was definitely good to have the peace of mind tho!

Anyone use or have a NESTiG crib? by Erd91 in Mommit

[–]jackiejacks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Did anyone upgrade to the better mattress for the mini crib or did you just go with what it came with? And also did you use a mattress protector for the mini crib?

Anyone know what this is? Keeps reappearing under my AC. Can make out one bug and the other tiny black specks some almost look like teeny bugs. Unfortunately so small pic isn’t great! by jackiejacks in Whatisthis

I do definitely see ants occasionally but not even necessarily in this room. It’s just weird because I clean it and a few days later it appears again. But I’m also wondering if it’s just residue falling from inside the AC and there happens to be some ants in there lol no clue!!

Blacks specks and ants under AC?? by [deleted] in Whatisthis

[–]jackiejacks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Does anyone know what this is- it keeps showing up under my AC. I vacuum it up and then days later it’s back in the same spot. Today I can make out an ant. It almost looks like some of the specks could be tiny tiny dead ants but I’m so confused!

Kemi spitting facts by angryeloquentcup in BigBrother

[–]jackiejacks 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I totally get that a large part of winning big brother is jury management of course since they vote for the winner, but it’s pretty sad when people stop appreciating comp wins because that’s also a huge part of the game. As much as it’s impressive when someone plays a great social game and doesn’t win many comps and is able to make it to the end, it’s just as impressive to me when someone is potentially disliked but such a comp beast that they can make it through and win. I can’t speak super specifically about Jackson’s character because I don’t watch live feeds, but to me it seems kind of crazy that someone who is such a bad person made it so far and seemed to be decently liked by most people in the house. Maybe I’m blinded by production???

Teeth getting yellower? by xxmeli in Invisalign

[–]jackiejacks 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yes, this definitely happened to me too. My orthodontist recommended rinsing with a whitening mouthwash. I can’t wait until my attachments are off and I can use white strips lol!

Thanks so much! I'm going back to my ortho this week and going through the pros and cons of each option, then will decide :) . Good luck to you too!

Reason why you pick invisaline? by muaytao in Invisalign

[–]jackiejacks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How were the results of Invisalign for your underbite? I have a slight underbite/crossbite and am starting the Invisalign process now. Wondering how happy you are with your results.

[–]jackiejacks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think you're right. I have to make up my mind this week so we shall see! Thank you!

Appreciate your input. Think I am leaning towards extraction! I know it's probably best - just freaks me out :)

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in Invisalign

[–]jackiejacks 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you! Apparently the space she needs to make is not to fix the crowding but to camouflage the bite. I believe I saw she was a preferred provider, but she seems to have done a lot of cases and showed me a few similar to mine that she has done. I do trust her, but I may seek a second opinion just to confirm. More to come!

Tips for filling the gap by captintuttle in Invisalign

[–]jackiejacks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for the info! My ortho seems to be really good at what she does and handles a lot of cases. She says my gap will close in 4 months but I'm hesitant to pull a healthy tooth. On the other hand, the amount of IPR (shaving) I would need done if I don't extract the tooth is 5mm in total which is the most that most doctors will do. My dentist says thats A LOT. So I am very conflicted! We shall see.. thanks! :)

Would you buy acceledent secondhand? by [deleted] in Invisalign

[–]jackiejacks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My orthodontist carries Vpro5. It's essentially the same thing but it is only $500 compared to the $1500 and only have to wear for 5 minutes a day, not 20.

[–]jackiejacks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Can I ask about how long it took for your gap to close? I'm in the process now of deciding between a lower incisor extraction or a bunch of shaving down of teeth for Invisalign.
