I purchased my invisalign treatment on groupon! It was $2,800 for the whole treatment including 3 revisions if needed. I think the price was fantastic but I think my dentist is new to the process. I don't care at all bc it's working GREAT so far! I am 6 trays in so I'm about 3 months in and my teeth already look tons better and I'm already feeling so much more confident about my smile!!! It's a great feeling bc I've had crowded crooked teeth my whole life. I'm 24 years old and it's time I got my teeth fixed. I had a front tooth sticking out which looked almost bucked and its already a lot more flat. I brush my teeth like 5 times a day now and use whitening toothpaste that's making my teeth super white which is an added bonus. If this is 3 months I can't wait to see what my teeth will look like in a year :D
Dr. Sauer rocks!
On tray number 8

Teeth are coming along nicely :D I had like 6 spaces filed/grinded between my teeth so they could move which is normal for people with crowded teeth, not the most pleasant but it was ok
Almost done!!

CLEANING TRAYS TIP

Oh yeah... Anyone wanting to know how I clean my trays, I found a great method. I keep a small plastic cup in my bathroom and a specific tooth brush just for scrubbing trays. Every morning I soak my trays in white vinegar to remove all the gunk. It gets rid of any smells and gunk that might have built up over night. This is the best and cheapest method I have found and works great! I've gone through 3 big jugs of vinegar already. It can be diluted with water also
So grateful

I'm so grateful that I was able to get my teeth straightened, it has greatly improved my confidence and I feel like a different person now. I think dental care should be available to everyone at a lower cost. It might be "cosmetic" to some people but no one should have to go through life feeling uncomfortable about their smile or just talking like I used to. I am more confident speaking with people and in front of others and that is something everyone should be able to have. My dentist has done an amazing job and I have gotten to know him quite well, he's a caring person and has gone above and beyond my expectations. 100% worth it.
I don't wear a retainer
I never bothered with the retainer it's been a couple years later and my teeth regressed a bit but overall still look so great I don't worry about the slight crookedness.
