I have always felt uncomfortable with my teeth, and I think having them straight will greatly improve my confidence! Now I can finally afford them and justify them - I've taken the plunge.

I had my records done a couple of months ago now - it took six weeks to receive my clincheck and I approved it soon after (which was nearly two weeks ago). I was told 2 - 4 weeks for the trays to come after that, so hopefully they come soon!

I got a call today saying my trays had arrived! Very excited (and a little nervous) considering it has only been two weeks since I paid the deposit - having the fitting on Saturday, so I'll update then!

Wow, your trays came fast! Make sure you have some ortho wax and a nail file, just in case the tray edges bother you. Better to have them & not need them...
Can't wait to hear how you are doing with your new trays!! :)

I received my first set of aligners last night and so far it's been alright. The bottom ones were so hard to get off and on at the start, but now it's mainly taking it off that is hard and that's getting easier. I haven't had much pain, although a couple of teeth at the bottom are quite tender, which is making it hard to eat. It was a bit of a challenge today, as being social for me often involves going out for a bite to eat - so I had to plan a bit more.
I was mentally preparing myself for gut guns etc, but the retainers have been fine. They seem to fit perfectly, too and a more invisible than I thought they would be... I'm guessing that will change though when I go in a couple of weeks and get attachments put on... I can't quite remember how many it was. I'm pretty nervous for that visit. Considering how hard it is to get them off now, it may mean that I can't eat for a couple of days!
All in all though I'm so excited to start the process of straightening my teeth... Although I can't help thinking 'what if they don't change at all'

That is exciting that you are getting started on your Invisalign!! Judging from the photos you posted it looks like you already had your records appointment. When do you get your first set of trays?
