WORTH IT$1,535
I am trying the clear aligners by SmileCareClub after wearing braces and not wearing my retainer. My teeth arent horrible but they arent perfect either. I will give a clear and honest review and answer any questions I can answer. I am on the Smile20 Plan. I thought I needed something less but we will see what happens.

Looking forward to your progress! For best results, wear you aligners as your doctor prescribes.

6 month dental cleaning. Tray 2, Week 1 Day 2
I wasnt going to update my review until i was 3 months out and had something to show. I went to my regular dentist today who did all my dental work just a couple of months ago (changed all fillings to white, a crown and sent me for a root canal). During my cleaning he discovered tooth #25 was loose. It hasnt always been loose, only since this last set of aligners. I will monitor this and see if it tightens back up, and i am going back in 3 months for him to check it out and make sure nothing is getting worse. He is very on board with my clear aligners.

Possible setback. Hopefully not.
Literally 2 days after I had my cleaning I broke my back left bottom molar, the very last one. I originally thought I would ask to jut have it pulled but that will mess up my aligners. I am going to see if he can make a crown that wont effect my aligners. I saved the tooth piece.

Smile Care Club wants $100 per set of aligners if I need to get new ones done because my crown chipped. My dentist can't make a crown exactly like my old one and my old dentist that originally made this crown for me is no longer in business. I am just going to keep going with my treatment and deal with my crown replacement after.

He did OK this. He said as long as I am extra careful with that tooth and i come in for exams every 3 months instead of 6 it should be fine.
