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.

Tray 20/20
Last tray!!! I just started the implant process a week ago and everything went fine. The screw of the implant does not affect my trays at all. I'm 99% sure I'm not going to ask for refinements as I'm very pleased with the outcome and I can't imagine more trays improving it that much more. I will be getting the permanent retainers with the wires behind my teeth (top and bottom) and clear retainers at night. I am so glad to be this close, as the journey was frustrating at times... mostly with eating out and having to brush/floss afterwards. Overall, I'm very happy with the process with only one regret.... should have did it sooner. What's next for me is finishing tray 20, getting some bonding done to fix some chips, permanent retainers and completing my implant. Hopefully, that will be all folks.
Tray 15/20
75% complete. I'm hanging in there and I'm starting to see the finish line. With my next appointment in Jan, my orth said we'll start talking about retainers. I'm going to push for the wire ones on both top and bottom if possible. At this point, I don't think I'll go with refinements as I just want to be done. I guess I'll have 12 more weeks to decide. I still want to get an implant for tooth 19 and some bonding done after my treatment. so far I'm very happy with the results.
Some tips: I wear my trays for about 22.5 hours a day. I always make my meals first and have everything ready then take out my trays. I clean my trays every time I take them out. If I'm eating out, I will at least rinse them out with water. I only brush my trays with water and will occasionally use tooth paste if they start to smell. I only drink water with my trays in and nothing else.... occasional vodka and tonic if I'm going out.

Tray 11
Sorry I haven't updated in a while, but been real busy. I recently got back from a 2 weeks business trip abroad to a poor country. I knew it would be difficult to keep my invisalign in the entire time consistently. I talked to my orth and he recommend that I complete a full 2 weeks and can wear the same tray only at night for the 2 weeks I'm gone. I did a lot better and averaged about 18 hours a day compared to my 22 hours when I'm at home. I had it off for about 9 hours on one of the days, but everything seems ok. I'm over half way done now and seen good improvements. Hope everyone can hang tough. I get IPR in week 12.
