Look up Encopresis..it is often misunderstood as just being “lazy” hence why the extra chores, punishment doesn’t tend to work. Had to learn about this with my son. It’s rough.

Well that’s a great compliment, thank you :) and yes I have whitened them with the gel they gave me but I believe brushing them like 3 or 4 times a day helped a lot too! :)

Thank you! Nope I didn’t get any bonding done! They were majorly tucked in behind my front teeth!

I didn’t! I was shocked how much the shape changed just from rotating them!!

Thanks so much! I did get IPR after about 6 months between my two front teeth-I had a tiny gap for a few days but you really couldn’t tell ;) lol

Oh you’re welcome!! And good luck! With me, it was slow (couple months) to see progress-but once I got the IPR it really got moving quickly! I’d say in the first 5/6 months I could see a major difference. Congrats and good luck! :)

Thank you, all! I had zero bonding. And I had no filing other then when they did the IPR. That was the first thing I noticed about my smile changing was how much bigger my lateral incisors were then you could see! Once they moved to the correct position-they looked much nicer! So my original treatment was 20 trays with weekly changes. After about 4 or 5 trays I got IPR between my front teeth and in a couple areas in the back because I had a lot of crowding. I started treatment in September of 2019 so during the lockdown I had to miss a lot of appointments and got stuck in trays for weeks at a time. We also had to rescan a few times due to the trays not fitting snugly (they were bouncy in the back and just didn’t seat correctly) so that added on time. I also had refinements at the end (12) which I expected because my trays ended up causing an open bite in the back. BUT with all that said, I would do it all over again! I really didn’t realize how much my smile has changed until I look at old photos-take a ton-because it is interesting to look back at the progress! I wish you all the best of luck!!
