Second day on my 1st tray - U/18 * B/15 - I am already counting down the days to try on the second trays - can it come any sooner? I was always conscience about my teeth - although they weren't bad but the overcrowding on the bottom was always nagging at me. I finally decided to go ahead with Invisaline. I had to have a tooth extracted, see my pic, and I simply can't wait for the changes to begin. I will provide progress/pictures once every new tray is up. Stay tuned.

4.27.12 - I am on tray #6 (how time flies) - I have been wearing each tray for 2 weeks - I am getting used to the constant flossing and brushing - the gap is closing and that itself makes me giddy - there are some trays that you will feel the pressure for days but there are some that in one day, the pressure is over. I can't wait for this to be over! Not in a bad way, I am just anxious to see my nice teeth and being able to smile away. Will be back after six week when my Ortho looks at my progress and gives me my next set of trays.

5.20.2012 - On 5/19 went to my destist for my 6 month check up and cleaning - the hygenist was very pleased and told me that my cleaning was 99% near perfect - some plaque still manages to sneak in no matter how well you brush and floss. So aside from all the comments that I read that Invisaligns creates cavities and so on, it wasn't the case with me. :D This was probably my first visit where I actually came out feeling very proud.

Sorry - its Roger Rollands DDS - My initial experience with the orthodostist and his staff was very pleasant. As a newbie, I was nervous, and they made me feel very comfortable and quickly eased my nerves. I have been with this doctor and his team since December 2011 and I do not have anything negative to say. Girls are great and Dr. Rogers is a pleasure to work with.

Thanks for starting your review, and for posting a picture so we could see how things are starting out.
How is it going getting use to the trays?
You are not the first person I have heard say they have lost weight after starting Invisalign - nice little bonus, huh?! If interested you can click here to read other peoples reviews who have specifically talked about weight loss.
If you are in trainer trays your teeth will probably be pretty sore when you go to your first set of active trays. Most people say that is the worst of it, then the changes after that get better. I'm guessing its just getting your teeth loosened up & moving initially that can be a bit more uncomfortable. Take some Advil or Tylenol and switch to the new trays right before bed - and remember if it sucks, most people say it gets much better. :)
thanks.
Loved reading your update, but even more loved seeing the space closing between your teeth - that is so exciting to actually see, isn't it?! :)
That is awesome that your cleaning went so well - all your hard work is showing!! Way to go!!
