Tray 1 of treatment plan

Here we go...
Aligner #1/20
I will update every 3 weeks or as things come up :)
Just want to point out that I paid for my treatment on May 4th and received today. Only took 15 days!! I'm already impressed and can say the price difference is so worth going through the process.

My aligners are here!!! :)))

Sooooo.... My aligners showed up today! Yay!!!! Right on schedule. Actually ahead of schedule! I received 10 out of the 20 aligner sets. Unfortunately one thing I noticed right away is I didn't receive my whitening gel. I spoke to a smile direct rep when I had to confirm the fit of my starter trays he informed me that if I pay for the aligners in full instead of payments I would receive a year supply of glo teeth whitening gel. As I stated before this was a huge selling point for me so it's pretty disappointing to open the box and not see the whitening gel. I called the customer service number and the rep said she would contact the department that ships out the aligners and will take care of it. So hopefully I will receive those shortly. I asked if it would come in one shipment but she said she didn't know but would look into it.
Anywho back to the new aligners :)
They are designed much better than the starter trays. Less plastic around the gums and seems to be better made than the starters.
So I put my first set in and they are tight!!! It's a much different feeling that braces. First off there's no metal scraping into your gums (you never forget that pain) it's like the dull pain after you bump your teeth. To me I like the feeling because it tells me the aligners are doing their job. In a couple hours I'll prob want to rip them out after the excitement wears off lol but for now I'm happy. If you read the comments above a dentist mentioned the "chewies" he said to chew on them for an hour each day to insure the aligners are set in correctly and help with the tooth movement. I'm chewing on one now and I hear clicking. I'm guessing since it's only been 20 min that my teeth haven't adjusted to the aligner so they will prob click for the first week or so. I will say when I first put them in they must not have been in all the way because after the chewies I felt them pop into place.
I'll update when I hear back or receive my whitening gel.
Use your chewies people!!!
