Hello!
Final post from me - firstly thank you all for your support through out the process lovely community on here and its appreciated!

Anything I could fault? 1 thing which i think there is a slight gap in my tooth still :( (not sure if I'm a perfectonist)
Would I reccomend? yes 100% its worth it but very expensive!
Is the pain worth it? yes you get used to it before long and it just become normal, before you know it you are done!

Quick picture!
I'm currently having my teeth whitened but thought I'd quickly show a picture of my end result (with the retainers in is where my issue is with it not being 100%)

I am currently thinking of getting my teeth straitened and have a hard time choosing the how! Reading through your journey has helped a lot in the decision making process I have to say. The Before and After is absolutely amazing! Well done!

Does your lip look really pushed out with the attachments? I'm quit nervous having them put in :(

Not at all! They aren't that big tbh with you! That's one thing that never concerned me with them! X

They look fantastic :) Really pleased for you. My ortho suggested a fixed brace for the refinements to guarantee he can rotate 2 stubborn teeth, but I really don't want to go down that road - I'm not looking for perfection but then I think I've come this far and paid a lot of money, that maybe I should go on for a bit longer. Decisions, decisions :)

It is difficult! I've got my retainers and I'm happy with them! Thank you though for your support throughout x

You're welcome! I found it so helpful reading about other people's experiences and seeing the 'before' and 'after' pics is a really motivation. You were really positive throughout, which is great x

They look amazing. You must be so pleased. How is the whitening? Is it expensive?

Thanks so much! It was included in the price but is meant to be around £500 I think they discount it when you do other treatments though x

I'm Done!!!
So after a very quick 6 months I'm finished! I went for one of my last appointments last night to get my attachments taken off.. (Weird experience) Running my tongue along my teeth after was so weird! Having those weird little attachments on my teeth had become normal!
Once I had the attachments taken off they took the moulds of my teeth for my retainers and teeth whitening. I'm not going to post my after pictures until they are whitened so that you can get a full finished impression of them :) I will also go into a little bit more detail on how i feel about invisalign and my experience.
I would love to say I'm 100% satisfied but I'm not…Unfortunately. I feel as though the my clin check looks slightly different for my finished result in regards to the tooth I hated the most... but I'm also not sure if I will ever be fully satisfied.
Anyway... I'm done and I'll be back in a week for more detail :)

Hi Tara. I'm starting my Invisalign journey in the next 10 days!
I'm sorry you're not happy with the final outcome but you should ask about the 'refinement ' phase. This is when your dentist takes mounds again for additional retainers to 'fine tune' your teeth .
By the way, did you have Invisalign Lite or full Invisalign. As you had so few retainers, it sounds like you had Lite? Xx

Hello! Ooo exciting, good luck!! I may ask about it but tbh the more the days go on the happier i am with the outcome... but still not 100%, yes I did have lite I'm sure as there were 3 options when I had my assesment! xx
