Worth It
Spent: $5,000 in Valley Forge, PA

I never had braces as a child and I chose at 21 to get invisalign. My insurance did not cover it so I payed a little over 5000 to get it.

I am now on tray 13 of 23, BUT this is my refinement trays, I previously had 23 trays and my doctor and I both were not happy with the results. I am worried because my doctor told me I did not have to wear them for 2 weeks and I could change them sooner because I was very adamant about wearing them all the time (seeing as I paid for them and all!) For now I am happy with the results and cannot wait until it is OVER and i have straight teeth!

I am wondering if it is absolutely necessary to wear the retainers for 2 weeks, sometimes i change them in 10-12 days because they fit well. What happens when you change them too quickly and move on?

My dentist recommended against it. She said your cells need the time to breakdown and rebuild around your teeth/roots to firmly and correctly establish themselves.
