WORTH IT$7,000
3 years post Invisalign I’m SO happy I did it. Aside from the cosmetic benefits my jaw alignment has also corrected and I wear a retainer every night which stops me grinding my teeth. My overall tooth health has also improved as they no longer grind on each other!

Progress 16 aligners along
Heres a pic update, this is my 16th aligner compared to aligner 1 or 2 in the top picture. I don't have the aligners in my mouth in the bottom pic. You can see what an awesome improvement Invisalign have made! I have absolutely no regrets about this treatment!

Invisalign Aligner 14, 7 months along
Noticing a great difference now! My midline is lining up well.
I do notice quite a lot of pain for the first day of changing aligners and it's always on the right side of my mouth. I guess those teeth are the ones moving the most. I hardly notice the aligners anymore though. When I get into the second week of each aligner I relax my wear time to around 18 hours a day. I haven't noticed anything going wrong with this method and again Ortho is really happy. The gap between my front teeth is nearly closed now too! Yay!

Great progress! When you initially went for rconsult, did they discuss/go over how your midline would be corrected? (Or did you just notice it being corrected during treatment?) I'm almost halfway thru my treatment and I've noticed my midline is off as well and it's really bothering me now :( If it's not corrected this time around, I know I'll want it to be during refinement. During my consult we mainly discussed correcting my overbite and the spacing that I have.

She said she didn't think the midline would be perfect at the end of treatment but it would be well improved. TBH I'm not too worried if it's not perfect as long as my smile still looks nice! But absolutely if you aren't happy with your end result tell your orthodontist! I noticed in my final Clin check that the midline was corrected though

Awesome! I'm going to ask to see my clin check video again at my next appointment. Thank you
