Reviews you can trust, from real people like you.
How it works
- Our highly-trained Review Moderation team evaluates all reviews before they're published to ensure they're written by people like you and not a member of a doctor's office.
- This multi-step process takes up to 24 hours from review submission to publication.
- Doctors can't pay to have reviews removed or hidden.
- Reviews are only removed at the reviewer's request or if they violate our Terms of Service.
If you have questions or believe we should re-evaluate a published review, let us know.

Well it's been awhile since my last update!
A few things to report:1) I had a porcelain crown fracture after less than 2 years of my root canal. It may have been due to movement from invisalign changing my bite and causing undue pressure. We are waiting until Invisalign is complete to repair it, but thankfully, my dentist is excellent and replacing it free of charge. 2) I have a new cavity that requires a filling. If you look on my photos without Invisalgin, you will see there is brown staining between my two front teeth. There was substantial overlap between those teeth before, and due to the concavity of the filling, it apparently appears brown. I will be having these replaced as well. 3) I have switched to a stronger elastic on my left and a weaker elastic on right to account for the malalignment which persists. 4) I will need revision trays, the number is unknown but given that I am using Acceledent I should be able to switch every 4 days, according to my orthodontist. 5) I have a "black hole" or gap between the top of my two front teeth that I hope will be fixed with IPR/revisions. Only 4 more trays to go with my first Invisalign course and I could NOT be happier. There has already been substantial improvement and I am finally happy to show my teeth when smiling!

Not much new to report except that I finally am seeing some movement in my central incisors. My bottom teeth are also quite loose but have almost moved into position.
Tray 17
It's been awhile since my last update! The precision cuts work great with elastics for me with no problems at all with them bending or the elastics popping off. I am continuing to use acceledent and change my trays weekly. Travelling in China was a bit of a challenge with access to clean water and found I couldn't brush my teeth until the end of the day back at the hotel. I have been compliant with wearing my aligners 22 hours a day with the elastics on all the time - they don't particularly bother me.
As you can see from the photo, my bottom teeth are almost done and are much straighter. I saw my ortho last week who gave me up to tray 28. Tray 17 was the first tray where my non-molars are moving which is exciting. I haven't posted a photo of the upper as all the movement has been moving my molars back first to make room for my other teeth.
