Tray 3 A WEEK ADVANCE!!!
robertwallace22February 4, 2017
WORTH IT$1,700
As I said before, I'm not going to switch trays early unless I can take them out with my tongue and once again I was able to pop out the top and bottom within a week. Like before, regular pressure, the pain was just like the first two trays one the first day (Pain for 10-15mins then lessens but continue to feel pressure being applied. If possible I'll be able to finish in half the time. Like I said before, I believe the time period is longer to decrease the amount of pain the tray can apply to your teeth. SO IF YOU DO DECIDE TO SWITCH THEM EARLY, DO IT ONLY WHEN YOU CAN TAKE THEM OUT WITH LITTLE TO NO EFFORT. I tried tray three at the beginning of my treatment to understand the difference in each tray AND I WAS NOT ABLE TO GET TRAY THREE ON (Tray two however snapped on but hurt like "you know what"). Today tray three snapped on so that's great news. Also, the whitening gel that comes with the first kit is great!

Tray two one week early!!! 01/27/17
robertwallace22January 29, 2017
So before 1/27 I was able to take my first tray out with my tongue within a week so I decided to try tray two and it snapped into place a week early. I believe its possible to change them weekly if you have a minor spacing. I believe they tell you a longer time so there would be less pain and more time preparing for the next tray. Yes, it hurts a little bit more. 1/19 (tray one) the pain was a 8.5. 1/27 (tray two) that pain was a 10 (from 1-10). It calmed down around 15mins. Now 1/29 snapping in my second trays are a 8 (from 1-10) and it lessen in 7-10mins. I woke up with pain the first day and now there's no pain waking up. I don't plan to switch all trays early but if I can remove them with my tongue I will proceed to the next tray. Same as tray one, no scraping, perfect fit, tight, pressure being applied. Its 6am in Chicago, sorry I cant post pics just had enough time for a quick update.

01/24/2017 - Feels Good :)

Okay, the email to get a fast response is toby.lemley@smiledirectclub.com ..... I've can completely feel and see the difference from where my teeth was and where they tray is taking them. My teeth is alignering according to the tray. Its becoming easier to put in and it grips the teeth beautifully lol pain is very low actually no pain just pressure being applied to the moving teeth. Lastly, I tried tray jumping just too understand this product more. Each tray prepares your teeth for the next so you can't jump not even a tray ahead that means its real progression in each tray. You can not go from tray one to tray three, you truly need the timing and I like that because it proves and shows progression in each tray. I know we hate waiting months to see good progression so I try to find good results every day. So far 5 stars ONLY dislike is that if you don't explain exactly what you want fixed you might have to buy this product twice. If you have a tooth that needs rotating and two teeth that has spacing then say that. Don't just focus on one problem or they will only focus on that one problem as well then you would have to buy it again to fix the second problem. Tell them all you want to have done and see what they have to offer. If its good for you, go for it. I had a little extra time to write but I didn't read over everything because of the rush so sorry for any spelling errors and lack of proper sentencing and punctuation lol I'll try to update as much as possible. And I'll put up pics and videos on my next post. Oh yeah, I thought this product couldn't do all of what traditional braces can do but it seems to impress me:)
