Doing It Right This Time :) - Baton Rouge, LA

It's been a busy couple of months for me and I've had some interesting things happen. I went to visit my aunt in Atlanta and had to eat and brush my teeth in the airport. At this point I've gotten so comfortable with my braces that I can pop them on and off in a few seconds. I tried to be discrete when removing them at the gate waiting for the plane. I noted my failed attempt when I caught a glimpse of a gentleman watching me as the first one came out. That was a little awkward to say the least. Then I had to run to the bathroom to brush and floss. I have to admit that I was a little uneasy about it. To my surprise, I wasn't the only person brushing in the public domain. Seeing the other woman definitely made me feel better. In the end it wasn't a big deal at all. Coincidentally, one of my girlfriends started straightening her teeth with regular braces about 1 week before I begin my journey with Invisalign. She and I went to dinner after work last week. I have to say that eating with Invisalign was much easier for me then eating with regular braces was for her. I was able to pop my trays out in the bathroom, and enjoy my hamburger. She on the other hand, had lots of problems eating her burger. By the end of our meal, the inside of her mouth was sore from her braces. I felt so bad for her. I'm starting to feel much better about my choice to proceed with invisalign. I'm even seeing a noticeable difference in my teeth. When I went to the dentist yesterday, I was given trays 4, 5, and 6. It's really exciting to see the projected progression.
