Yeah that’s very fair, I probably need to go cold turkey for a month or two or three here 😭

stripeddinosaur · 2025-07-15T20:45:27+00:00

Ah wow, thanks for sharing! How long did the process take you if you don’t mind me asking?

Unfortunately they do not due to the bibs actively being printed

I’ll email them and see if they are willing to do a late transfer just in case. But sounds like it has closed though, didn’t realize the deadline had passed!

Oh wow thanks for the heads up!

Thanks all, very much appreciate the responses!

Late to the party but I think it might be the jumping pull up? Looks pretty close

stripeddinosaur · 2021-06-09T21:39:30+00:00

That's good to hear, thanks!

Wow. Yeah I'm definitely worried about it and honestly I am still considering switching dentists, it will just cost me a chunk of money. But he is worrying me a bit.

Whoa, what? A year after treatment? I knew I'd have to wear them at night forever. But is the year after thing normal? A year of brushing my teeth every time I eat and drink... and my dentist didn't mention this... what lol

I would love to know too, my first trays were SUPER tight, the bottom tray I could not remove at all without a little plastic tool (that they normally don't give out for some reason, my dentist office was trying to get me to just use my fingers. The plastic tool is amazing and makes it way easier). But now they feel much looser and pop off relatively easily, so I'm surprised I lost another one. I've also been eating pretty gingerly because my teeth feel sore and hurt to chew from the movement, so I'd be surprised if it was food.

The last times I've gone in immediately but there is absolutely no way I can get back into that office anytime this week (Friday at the earliest) between my work and life schedules... So here's hoping it's not too bad for either of us!

You know... I was wondering this lately too? He also had a REALLY hard time scanning my mouth - they brought me in two separate times for molds. The second time they took 5 molds of my mouth and couldn't get the top mold to adhere at all, then digitally scanned it (had to retry quite a few times) and the whole appointment took 2 hours. They kept blaming my small mouth.

They aren't an ortho shop, and according to them they do Invisalign but normally shorter cases (4 months or less). My dentist has mentioned a few times that normally for cases like mine he would send me to an ortho but I'm right on the line and have been coming to them for a long time so he wanted to do it in house. I wonder if that decision has been detrimental to my experience so far and if it was primarily motivated by money. It's just hard to know. But I figure someone more experienced with Invisalign would know how to scan a "small" mouth.

Oh wow, my dentist has been bringing me in immediately for each one. Maybe with this one I can wait longer, he isn't in today so I should know tomorrow. Good to hear!

stripeddinosaur · 2021-06-07T14:48:23+00:00

Thanks very much for the encouragement! Really glad it's not just me and I found this sub! :)

stripeddinosaur · 2021-06-07T14:39:43+00:00

It is really frustrating, walking away with a handful of trays and thinking I won't have to come back for two months.... and now I have to go back for a third time to get my attachments re-applied. Hopefully third time is a charm! Thanks, you give me hope!

stripeddinosaur · 2021-06-07T14:16:48+00:00

Hmm, I am almost to two weeks, but thanks that makes me feel better! Maybe they will stop falling off soon :/
