I always wanted my teeth fixed but kept pushing off. I told myself this year no matter what I was going to do something about it. I started going to the dentist and got my teeth evaluated. He inform that it's a process so I went in and saw a periodontist who said gums was ok but I need to go to hygienist to get my quadrant clean did that and found out I had a couple cavities got those filled and finally started my impression and a couple weeks ago got my starter kit. I was really irritated the first day but I survive. 4 weeks later started my second set ortho said I'm doing great. I had that one on for 3 weeks then had to switch to 3rd set and 3 weeks later see my orthodontist to get buttons put in. I have to say this 3rd set really was uncomfortable. Top tray was extremely tight and to take 2 advil and skip lunch and dinner all together because I couldn't bare taking it out. I'm real nervous now about getting buttons put in now.
I had great experiences with my Invisalign treatment plan. I thought I was going to be stuck with the silver chrome mouth for a year, but thanks to my doctor I tried Invisalign and LOVED IT!
