End of the First Week

I have had my first tray in for just over a week now and I am happy things are moving along as expected. The dull ache I had for the first few days had gone now and I have started to get used to having these in.

My daily routine seems to be very organised and consists of me keeping a spare toothbrush and toothpaste on me at all times. It can be challenging going into a bathroom to brush my teeth, but I am getting used to it already. I have not found the need to but any solutions to keep the aligners clean. With cold water and a good toothbrush I am able to clean them after each meal. I have also not noticed any yellowing or anything that other people have reported.

I only have 6 more days then I am onto tray two. These will be then changed every 10 days so a little shorted and also bringing my completion time down by 8 weeks. Only 19 weeks to go :)

First Few Days With Trays 1 of 14

After spending over an hour in the dentists chair getting aligners fitted and teeth shaved I can finally start to wear my first set of trays. The dentist has done all the shavings now on six of my teeth so that it does not have to be done each visit.

I have had a dull ache on my gums for the past 12 hours and finally ate something of substance and found that it hurt quite a lot eating. Has anyone got any ideas on the types of food that would be best?

Apart from all that I have found it relatively straight forward to take the trays out and put them back in again.
