Well after waiting for 3 months I got my 1st trays today. The buttons are a bit of a disappointment and I lost 2 right away and have to go back tomorrow to get them put on again. I should not have told them and just gone without, but if I'm going to do it I guess i Will do it right. sigh

Does anyone have advice on how to deal with sharp edges on a couple of spots on the tray? I already have sores in a couple of spots from them.

Helpful review?

Glad you decided to tough it out & get the buttons put back on. Most people seem to say that the first week is the worst, then it gets better from there.

Please let us know how you are doing once all the buttons are on.

I had the same problem twice, my buttons fell off twice and then when I went to put my second tray in, the top tray split after a week of wearing so I wasn't very impressed. I'm feeling very discouraged about the whole process and would rather have old fashioned braces than deal with all the problems I'm having.

they put the button back on but I had them grind them down alot so now they are much less noticable and aren't cutting me

As for the sharp edges the best solution I have found is get a good nail file!

Yeah, the tray edges can be quite the irritant from what many people say. There is an interesting forum open where the community member questioned why the Invisalign company doesn't smooth the edges. You can click here if you would like to join in the conversation.
