Tray 4 of refinements

WORTH IT$6,500
So I felt silly asking for refinements because two teeth weren't vertical enough for me, but I'm glad I did! I have already noticed an improvement! Lots of IPR going on but it gets easier every time. A piece of advice I would strongly recommend is if you have come to the end of your treatment plan and still aren't quite satisfied, tell your ortho! Refinements are included in the price. That's what they are there for!

Refinements, more IPR, more attatchments

Hi!

So, on week one of the first tray in my refinement set. Got more IPR which isn't my favorite but I survived. I hope this refinement works. I had two top teeth that I felt weren't quite as vertical as they should be. Kinda nervous that the refinements will make things look weird but I may be just overthinking it! Either way these teeth have come a long way! I6 trays two weeks each . Doctor mentioned one week per retainer by he changed his mind...kind of a bummer! Oh well. So far so good. Just chugging along!

So, I thought I had 56 retainers. No. I have 46. Today, the attatchments came off, which was painful on my sensitive teeth, my ortho also filed between a few teeth.

If my ortho and I are happy with the results of this retainer...I won't have to wear the other or have refinements. Either way is okay with me considering I though I had 56 retainers! Duh.

Some of those photos are just sill lol but thank you! I'm very happy with the results. I wasn't convinced that My canines would ever move that far, and my extraction site holes are gone which is also amazing to me! Finishing early is strange! Can't believe I thought I had ten extra sets than I actually did.

You know, I've become SO used to the attatchments that i don't think about it really! When I first had them on it was all I could feel, especially when eating. But i do occasionally slide my tongue over my teeth to enjoy how smooth they are lol
