It's been a while since I've updated, but as of 4/14 I am officially done with Clear Correct.
Got my buttons taken off and was given my final retainer.

They look great! Have you noticed that they are staying where they need to be as I have read another post that says after her treatment ended, if they've been out for a few hours they start to shift back? So they had to proceed with a longer time frame. Im on phase o right now, just getting started

Phase 2A Pictures.

Random pictures I've been taking.

I think I will try the whitening kit when I move on to 2B.
Since those are supposed to be the baseline for my final retainers if the dentist likes the end result.
Or maybe I'll start next week after my cleaning.

Straight, gapless, white teeth for my birthday?
Stay tuned!

Phase 2A

Finally went to the dentist.

He was upset that I didn't move up to Phase 1D talking about if he didn't like it could always be corrected *rolls eyes*.

Phase 2A went in with no problem, so he decided to move me up to it.
It's my second to last set of trays so I'm excited.
I'll be done by my birthday in March!

I feel like that there's a little tiny gap in these pictures, but it could've been me waiting too long to take the pictures or not waiting a couple days.
But it looks better than what 1D was doing.
It looks more natural I guess? lol.

I'm excited to almost be done.
I'm hoping I can get a permanent retainer or something.

I have to get used to doing the whole clear braces routine again.
I was just wearing 1C at night after I tried 1D.

My daughter has a strong frenum as well that goes low between her front teeth.  Her orthodontist recommended a frenectomy, so that it wouldn't keep pushing her front teeth apart.  So I could imagine that your gap could reemerge, like you said, after a few hours.  Have you discussed the fact that you want a bonded retainer with your doctor?  They might plan that stuff ahead of time, and even order things ahead of time.  So if you get to the doctor early enough, before they start placing orders, you might not have to pay out of pocket for switching retainer types.  Otherwise they'll order whatever type they think is best for you.

I have to go in for a regular cleaning on the 17th. I'll mention it to him then, because this is annoying.
