18 month update
Lots has happened since my last update. Sorry for not keeping up but I've been so busy it's been crazy.
So here's my brief.
Finished initial round of 29 trays. Had issues with lack of movement in one tooth plus one attachment was not big enough and that tooth stopped moving.
Did new scan and went through another 9 trays worth of treatment and still had some issues so my ortho recommended after the 9th tray to switch over to braces for 3 to 4 months to complete the treatment.
Well, I've been in braces since December 28th 2016.
I must say I couldn't do this for two years that's for sure but one month in and huge difference. I will say that I've had a few clips break off and just a wire change on the lower with the top coming on the 13th of February.
Alot more pain for the first 5 days and my healthy diet plan I was on with invisalign is virtually impossible with braces as eating is very hard to do. I've actually gained 5 lbs in a month and a half. Can barely floss as well compared to keeping everything very clean with invisalign.
As for my current state of my mouth, my teeth actually are very straight. I'm very pleased with all the progress in the last 18 months.

Sorry for lack of updates.
Sorry for not posting in a year but life gets in the way as they say. I just wanted to come up to speed on my treatment.
I did finish the course of 29 trays after a year and will say that if it's recommended for tooth extraction don't do it. I kept mine and after 29 trays it looked pretty good and my Dr. was happy with the progress I made.
I knew that I would go through an enhancement cycle when I hit tray number 20 due to one of the attachments not being big enough. Invisalign recommended additional shaving of teeth at the beginning but my Dr. wanted to take it slow and conservative.
That was a great choice as currently I have plenty of spacing and just started my second round. This will consist of 9 additional sets and should be done by this December with final tweaks via polishing and contouring. I'll try and post some before and after at the end.
Hang in there and thanks.

Started Tray Number 2
Hi Guys, Just a quick update, tray number two is in. Still need to post initial photos but I will wait till I'm done with number two before I add more photos as I didn't see a major difference yet from 1 to 2. I know something is happening because a few teeth had slight pain after I touched them so I know these are the ones doing the most moving right now.
Still getting used to my new eating habits but I'm brushing like 4 to 5 times a day. Like I said before, the waterpik is a must have tool for at home. The areas that were shaved have benefited the most from it that's for sure. If you don't have one just do it and get one.
Big issue that I have still to over come is the morning routine. Still running a little late to start the day also due to the dryness of my place I have a hard time in the morning to remove them. I purchased these plastic retainer removal sticks from Amazon but they are to round to get into place to help with removing them.
My nails are short so that doesn't help either. I can already feel that tray 2 is concentrating on the front a little more and based on my bite the shave gap is closing little by little. I can tell because the flossing is getting a little tighter.
Okay I guess that's what I have for now. Hope to start posting photos soon. Next tray pickup is slated for August 31st (tray 3 and 4). Hoping to get a good report back from my doctor.

Provider Review
Dr. Michael Rozny
Dr Rozny is doing an awesome job with my treatment. If your serious about your teeth and having a great smile and your in the Milwaukee area, I'd highly recommend him to anyone in my area. He works in the West Bend office of Bubon Orthodontics.
