Hello! Just started my Invisalign journey a couple days ago. I am on Tray one of 30. I'm excited to get this process going and get a beautiful smile. The first few days have been pretty painful. Bearable, but painful. Hoping the pain subsides in a few days. I have my next two sets of trays with me and when I go back to my ortho at the 6 week mark I will get my 12 attachments and my other trays. I have crowding and an overbite which will cause me to wear bands once I get to around my 12 week time frame. Hoping to see some progress in the next couple months! I attached some photos of my first trays.

Hey y'all. So just this past Monday I got all my attachments put on. 10 on top, 8 on bottom. And started Tray 4. It is much tighter and more painful taking the trays on and off now that I have to attachments on, but I'm hoping that will get better as I get used to the attachments. I am switching trays out every week now so I am hoping to start seeing faster progress, at this point I don't see much of a difference yet. But I know they are working cause my teeth are always sore. I attached some pictures just to keep track. I'll post again in a few weeks and hopefully will have some progress to report.

Hibyall, currently on tray 8 of my 27 active trays. Definitely feeling some changes to my bite at this point. I can see minor changes, my husband says he sees a difference. I don't see a whole lot by I can feel a difference so I know they are working! Still switching every week. Not really any pain anymore other than a tiny bit of soreness after each new tray, but they loosen up quite a bit by day 4. Excited to keep seeing more progress. Hope everyone else's journey is going well also! (Not looking forward to starting rubber bands in October)
