“Overbite and Spacing - Minnesota”

If anyone would like to watch video updates that I post about Invisalign, feel free to come along on my journey.
I really wanted to get Invisalign, because I couldn't stand my overbite anymore. It's one of those things that you look at pictures, and you've had enough. I am so happy with my choice to go with Invisalign. It has drastically fixed my teeth already. I'm currently on tray 19 of 30. From now on out, I'll be wearing my trays for 10 days each.
However, my ortho told me in the very beginning, that my overbite wouldn't be fixed 100%. Because of my jaw completely done growing, I would have to get corrective surgery. I'll be waiting until my treatment is done, to see I want to go through with the surgery.
I couldn't ask for better results than what Invisalign has done. It's always exciting to see results. I had spacing in between my teeth, and the gaps are closing up fast. I would recommend Invisalign to anyone!

Invisalign Tray 25- Almost Done!
Updated on 27 Dec 2011:
I'm currently on tray 27 of 27 on the bottom, and tray 29 of 30 for the top!! I only have 14 days left of my treament, and couldn't be more happy with the movement of my teeth!
With my last two sets of bottom aligners, I experienced them cracking/breaking. That was the 1st time that thats ever happened. My 25th set cracked on the top, right where my top teeth would come down. It also cracked along the side of the aligner. My 26th pair cracked in the same exact spot. However, it didn't affect the treatment.
I have my ortho appt next Tuesday! Hopefully the last one! I'll be updating you guys with another video, as well as before & after pictures!!!

Hey guys,
I just took some recent pictures to update for my "after invisalign". Still waiting until March, when I get the professional 'before' and 'after' pictures.

What a phenomenal review!! Pictures & a video - I know so many people will find this useful!
You can really see the progress you have already made by looking at the pictures. I'm excited to see how things continue to progress! :)
Sounds good, I'll be looking forward to seeing your pictures. Your dentist's office should have photos they take for records. Most offices are happy to share them with patients. I know taking good pictures of your own teeth is tricky, so you could probably ask them to share with you & save yourself the hassle. :)
Thank you for the review. My sister is getting Invisalign and I've forwarded her this link. Very candid and informative. The progression has already been amazing!
I am very impressed with your results. Your dentist's office should use your video for future clients. I currently have metal braces but am planning on switching over invisalign. I'm excited to continue watching your progress. Any helpful tips?
Loved the video update, especially how you have the countdown to being Invisalign free on your phone. Your celebratory squeals are adorable, can totally see your excitement!! :)
I'll be interested to hear if the orthodontist takes your buttons off at your next appointment, or has you keep them on for the remaining 7 days. Will you make sure to update us on that??
So glad things are going so well for you!!
I'll definately make a video after my Jan 3rd appointment, and let you know about the attachments!!
It's getting closer! Woohoo!
Alyssaaa6, wow! Already an amazing difference. You look great and your progress documentation is so helpful for anybody considering invisalign. Thanks so much for taking the time to update and share your story. It's so fun to watch your transformation!
Love the pictures you posted - your teeth are so nice & straight now. :) Don't forget to wear your retainers, would hate to see you lose what you worked so hard for!!
Glad to hear it will be easier to keep this retainer in! Please keep us posted on how things are holding up in the next few months - if we didn't get to hear from you we'd miss you!!
Everyone has the option to wear their retainer. I highly recommend it. I choose to wear mine, because I want my teeth to stay straight!! If you choose NOT to wear the retainer, your teeth will definitely move back to where they were before you get Invisalign. After every orthodontic work, they always give you a retainer to keep your teeth aligned after the treatment.
