The first few days was awful, I was in such a pain that I only took my tray out twice everyday to avoid the pain. Because it was Christmas holiday, I had one day that I only wore the tray for around 18 hours, I extended my time on this tray to 3 weeks according to my dentist.

The last few days were so easy, that I can take them out without any pain at all, I guess it just happen to everybody and every tray.

Very looking forward to how it looks like at the end,

Hi and welcome!!  Thank you so much for starting your story in our community!  Your experience is definitely within the normal experience.  The first few days are often terrible, though it ranges from mildly uncomfortable to 'I need to take a pain-killer', depending on the person and the tray.  By the end of the prescribed period, it feels comforting, like your teeth are getting a hug, and your teeth feel loose without the tray in.  

How many aligners will you have in all, and how long will your treatment be?

I look forward to following your progress!!

Wow--28 sets.  So just over a year, unless there are refinements afterward.  I noticed that you didn't list your doctor…are you using a dentist or an orthodontist?

Ah, thank you! :)  It's so cool how we're getting more and more people from Australia--but it's such a big country, they're pretty spread out :D.  I don't think I've seen two from the same doctor's office yet!

Tray 4 is very, very early to be seeing movement.  Congrats!
