TEMP TOOTH!
Tooth Missing:
Front Right
Usually your Dentist will give you 2-3 sets of trays and send you on your way, but for me that's not the case. I have to go in every 2 weeks (WHICH IS NOT A BIG DEAL) to get my temp tooth put in. The dentist finds the color that matched the rest of my teeth. When I go in for my visit, they place the temp tooth in the tray and partially cure it. I then have to put on then remove the tray a couple times to make sure the temp tooth will clear my teeth and allow for smooth removal. Once the temp tooth is perfect then the dentist will fully cure the temp tooth.
The entire process takes barely 30 minutes. I don't mind it at all for a number of reasons:
- I get the dentist to check if everything is going as planned and there are no issues.
- I don't have to walk around with this gaping hole in the middle of my smile
- Boost my confidence more and more
The temp tooth has No real affect/feeling to the Invisalgn: There's no added weight, the trays don't move in any particular manner due to the temp tooth. There is nothing NEGATIVE about the temp tooth at all, and I've had it in the entire process.
