Well I’m on my fifth set of Invisalign trays and everything is going great. I have become so used to taking them in and out. I have no problems with them at all. I am so glad that I went with the Invisalign option because I just became engaged! Can you imagine what braces would have looked like in my engagement/wedding pictures? I think I would have had to have put off the wedding until they came off!! So now I just have to wear these suckers all the time so I’ll have the perfect smile in time for my wedding.
Me and my FIANCE James!
I also went in for my third appointment at Fender-Goggans Orthodontics recently and I’m on to my fifth set of trays. Time really flies. Dr. Goggans took a look at my teeth and told me that everything was progressing just as they should. So far, I cannot tell a major difference in my teeth. Jessica, the assistant, explained that tooth movement with Invisalign works from the back to the front of the mouth, so it doesn’t offer noticeable changes at first. But, I can tell that something is going on because with each new set of trays, there is a little bit of discomfort for the first day or so. I can also tell that my teeth are moving because when I don’t have the trays in and bite down, my teeth feel different.
Basically all we did at this last visit was check to make sure all of my attachments/buttons were still on good. They also filed a little in between my teeth to make sure they still have room to move. Apparently they can get too tight and just won’t move. So this file was just a small strip essentially its like a flexible metal that fit between my teeth. It didn’t hurt at all.
