So on Sunday I had a box of small popsicles in my freezer. I was eating them all day long until I got hungry and made real food around dinner time. So I went to take out my invisilign and omg are they look stained. I attached a photo so you can get a look.. Luckily they don't look bad when there on my teeth but not ripping these puppy's out in public until I put a new set on...

Tray 3
oneil570May 10, 2015
So today I started tray 3! Finally feeling like I'm making progress although I still havnt noticed a difference, but it's only been a month.
Everything has been good so far. Trays havnt cracked or caused any problems, also my buttons have stayed glued on to my teeth.
It will be awesome to have straight teeth once again!

Tray 2, buttons, smoking, and cleaning information
oneil570April 26, 2015
Today I switched to tray two in the morning. They were are a little tight but they are not hurting.
I'm going to attach a photo of a close up of the aligner to show the buttons. I have buttons on my front upper teeth and other locations and they are somewhat noticeable in public at close range.
I love to drink beers and smoke cigarettes. However since getting the aligners I have been trying hard to quit smoking, so far unsuccessful. Anyways I smoke with aligners in and my first set of aligners were still clear and showed no sign of yellowing.
I drink water during the day but at night I switch to beer. My aligners do not smell bad as I read some people have problems with that. I clean them with a clean toothbrush with just water.. Also once or twice a day I put them in water with a retainer brite tablet.. Furthermore if I'm at home when I eat or take them out I always put them in a cup with clean water and just let them soak.
The 22hr requirement is somewhat easy to meet, never timed it but I'm close. If the aligners are out of my mouth I'm eating or cleaning my teeth. I probably spend a good 10mins cleaning my teeth before putting them back in. Not taking care of my teeth I finally realize it is an important thing to do. When cleaning them you have to get into every nook and cranny or these things are going to root.
One last note: I been using my phone to leave these reviews so sorry for format and typos
