Reviews you can trust, from real people like you.
How it works
- Our highly-trained Review Moderation team evaluates all reviews before they're published to ensure they're written by people like you and not a member of a doctor's office.
- This multi-step process takes up to 24 hours from review submission to publication.
- Doctors can't pay to have reviews removed or hidden.
- Reviews are only removed at the reviewer's request or if they violate our Terms of Service.
If you have questions or believe we should re-evaluate a published review, let us know.

Finished!!!!
A few months ago, I finished up my refinement trays for my upper teeth. My short lateral incisors did not move much more during refinements, so my dentist and I settled on getting porcelain bonding to be placed over my lateral incisors and front teeth to fully close my open bite and add length to my short teeth. I got my attachments removed, used whitening gel provided by dentist and Crest Whitening strips like crazy for the past few weeks. I went in yesterday for the treatment, so now I have four porcelain teeth bonded onto my original teeth. No pain at all, it will just take some getting used to. Luckily my insurance covered most of the cost for the resin, so I had to pay about $140 out of pocket. It's so nice to have all my teeth the same length. I go back one last time in two weeks to pick up my top retainer and a few more touch-up areas. But I am sooo happy with the result!!
Waiting for refinements, ready to be done
About a month or two ago I finished my bottom trays, and my dentist ordered my clear retainer, which is just like a regular tray but the material is thicker which I like. The first few days wearing my bottom retainer, my teeth were in so much pain - more pain than I've had in any of the regular trays. After multiple impressions/wasted appointments with no luck, I go back to the dentist next week to get scanned for upper refinements to fully close my open bite. I am really frustrated with my provider, but it's too late to switch now. So ready to be done
Almost closed...
For the first time, I am really happy with my progress!
Upper revision tray 5/12. Bottom tray 15/15.
I will most likely need revisions for my bottom trays as they are not as straight as Id like them to be
