“Good Decision, Tough to Break Habits”
Worth It
Spent: $4,000 in Boston/Somerville, MA
Invisalign was the only option I wanted to considered for orthodontics. However, the first orthodontist I went to tried to convince me I needed metal braces and she was going to charge me $7000 for them. I ran away from her. Now, I've found an excellent orthodontist, who is super nice and walked me through my options. He was also understanding of my need for a payment plan as I'm only 24 and insurance doesn't cover cosmetic dental procedures.
I've had them on for two weeks now and they have worked fine. I think I'm going to try cleaning them more often during the day because I fear bad breath. I'm not a big fan of the filing or the buttons and currently I have spacers between my teeth to make space for a filing on Friday and it's painful. However, I think I can stick with it and am glad to have found a nice discussion forum to talk about all this! Thanks!
