Beautiful smile! You must be pleased : ) Just curious - did you end up needing refinements? If so, how many trays?
April 9, 2015
No, I have decided to not have refinements. I am very pleased with how things have turned out...I already have a front crown (with post) so actually things turned out better than hoped! We talked about the possibility of a few millimetres movement here & there but agreed it was not worth upsetting the work already done. So that's it for me! I am happy!

Your teeth are looking great and it seems like only yesterday you started with your treatment. Will you have refinements?
April 9, 2015
Hi - not long for you now either! I have decided against refinements...I could get picky and move one or two slightly...but if someone had said this is how they would look after 23 trays I would have been happy....and I am! When I look at Tray 1 vs. Tray 23 I can't believe how much they have moved! Best of luck with your journey....can't wait to see how yours look at the end!

They really do look great, and I'm with you. I didn't start this looking for perfection; I think after 38 trays, if I end up with what appeared on my clincheck, I will be extremely happy. I figure if my end product is such that, had my teeth looked like that to begin with I would never have even considered invisalign, then I'll be pretty darned tickled pink.

Hi Nicky.j :) I am a 54yo Aussie girl and will be getting my first trays on 21st April, and I must say I have just read your entire story and you have answered so many of my questions and given me great insight into what I can look forward too - both good and bad. Eeek! Thanks so much for doing such a grand job and also congrats for your lovely smile for all to see! I'm sure I will be using this site a lot and again thanks for your story, I am so excited as I have really horrible teeth, (pics will follow eventually) and I can't wait to be able to smile without being self conscious. Cheers Karen.

I never wanted perfect teeth and they're not.....but a huge improvement and I'm delighted! Attachments off today and after a small filling next week I will be fitted for retainers!

Quick pic of my tooth that is my little concern

Nicky.j
As I said with 6 weeks to go one tooth at the front is longer and more forward that the other...tried to get a pic to show it....my orthodontist agrees and said that it may be as the other one is a crown and odd sharper at back meaning invisalign miscalculated but that a few refinements will make them the same or more aligned..

Yup, I see it. Go for it, you've already invested time and money, why not make the most of it.
