I am 62 years old, I know a little old to be starting this. I chose Invisalign for the same reason most do, because they are invisible. I am very excited about this, and I can hardly wait until it happens. I've had to wait so long, and I am getting impatient. I will post more when I get my first set of Invisalign.

I am so excited for you!! I bet you are hoping these 3 weeks will just fly by so you can get started.
As I'm sure you have noticed if you have been reading through the reviews, a lot of people say the first week or two is pretty rough, then they get use to it & its no biggie from there on out, so don't get discouraged if its pretty tough at first.
Will be happy to hear updates to your review once you receive your aligners.
Feel free to send me a private message regarding any questions you may have about the Orthodontic appliance Invisalign, I will be happy to assist you in answering your questions.
If you would prefer to speak to a professional, please use the following link to post a question. www.realself.com/question/create, It will be answered by someone who know's exactly what they are talking about, but there's usually a wait time before your question get's answered.
Take Care. I hope all regarding your treatment with Invisalign in the future goes smoothly, and comfortably for you.
Well, 24hours and I begin my Invisalign journey. ...
Wish me luck.
I will post pictures once I figure out how to.

Totally understandable that you are feeling a little nervous - glad to hear there is some excitement mixed in there too though! :)
There are instructions in our Help section that explain how to upload photos, you can click here to see them. Looking forward to seeing your pictures!
Good luck with your appointment, I'm sure everything will go great!!
I'm assuming you are wondering why your review isn't showing up on the first page, so I will explain that - there is an algorithm used to place the reviews in order using things such as amount of activity, number of photos, if there are videos, etc in an effort to put the most informational content near the top of the search order. You can also select how to view, so if you are on the main reviews page you will see some drop down menus where you can narrow to content to specifics that interest you. Below that you will see a 'Sort by' option where you can choose to search by best match, (most) recent, nearby (you), comments (amount of conversation taken place).
Hope that helps a bit. My guess is as soon as you post your photos you will pop up closer to the top. :)
Beyond that, glad to hear your appointment went well & I hope you are doing ok getting use to those buttons!!
Well I am back from my appointment, everything...
At my ortho's office everyone was so nice and made me feel very comfortable. A technician put my buttons on, and then my orthodontist came to check to see that everything was going okay. Next I practiced taking them out and putting them back in. I had no problems with that, I expected that something would go wrong, but it was very easy, Maggie, my technician answered all my questions, gave me enough aligners until my next appointment which is August, I can't believe I don't have to go in until then. They also gave me a little hook to help remove my Invisalign, but I don't really need it.
I am going to ask my husband help me with pictures and will post them soon.
I will keep posting as I go along, wish me luck.
Good for you for deciding to do this for yourself!!!
Have you gone to get your molds made already or is that appointment coming up?
