Well I haven't updated this thing in a while as I've been happy with the progress and also just plain busy!
I still have like 19 Alligners to go!
I guess it's because it needs to hold the teeth in place but I am honestly so happy with my teeth that I couldn't imagine any other movement happening with them. will feel good when they're all paid off though!:P

39 aligners?!

jessjaensch
What I don't understand is that I still have another like 18 slingers to go and my teeth seems pretty much perfect right now!! ha.
It makes me wonder why they said I needed maximum aligners!
Like what would they be fixing right now??
Anyone else in the same boat??

lol I'm the same with mine - I have 48 aligners - up to 29 now. Top teeth are done. Bottom have a lot more cos I had to have two teeth extracted and they have to close the gap. Gap is nearly closed now after 28 aligners and yet I still have 20 more! Not sure why so many!!

yellow teeth that have buttons:(

jessjaensch
Hello!
So my progress is going well but I hate that the teeth with buttons are getting a but stained and yellow!:( I've been using my teeth whitening on them but i was wondering if there was anything else I can do and if this is normal?! and is it that noticeable or am I being paranoid...?
Was going to say no to the zoom whitening as I think it might be too full on but now I think I might consider it....

How strange that that is happening! Talk to your doc? That hasn't happened to me. I think I'm going to get zoom at the end but I haven't had individual teeth discolour like that??

I had that happen on only the teeth that had attachments. I had some overflow adhesive on my teeth that had stained. The stain wasn't on my actual tooth, just on the adhesive surrounding the attachment. My ortho was able to polish off the excess glue and the staining has not returned. He told me it was very common and more likely to happen if you drank a lot of coffee, tea or coke. I actually don't drink a lot of any of those and I obsess over my dental hygiene so I know it was not an issue of not taking care of my teeth properly. It was quick and painless to have it removed. And just fyi any type of whitening will not have any effect on attachments. Hope this helps!

Oh that does help! It makes sense as I drink a bit of coffee! ha. I might see if they can fix it up for me a but on my next dentist appointment. Thank-you!
