So far, I have gone to my orthodontist to get my impressions done. They took about 6 different impressions, taking about 30 minutes total. They scanned my head, and showed me a neat picture of my entire head as an X-ray.
I was called 2 weeks later to show me the 3-D pictures depict what my treatment will look like as we proceed. It's pretty neat. I am now waiting for my first tray. I have to say, I'm very excited... yet worried and nerviosa because I hear this is a totally different way of living when you have Invisalign.

First tray
I just got my first tray on. At first I couldn't help but slide my tongue through my top teeth. After 11 hours... I realized that wasn't the best thing to do. My tongue got sore and I can feel like it's cut. Nobody was able to tell. However I feel like it's very noticeable. It's just me though. Also, I have a little lisp. I have a hard time saying my "s" and "x". I timed myself on eating and brushing and flossing thereafter. Took 23 minutes. I think I'm going to do pretty well on time. I thought twice about snacks lol.

I know how that feels! After getting my first tray on I was so paranoid and couldn't stop thinking about it! But you're right it's just you and how you feel. I'm on tray 4 now and have got into the swing of it :) how many trays do you have?
