Relaxing at the Grand Floridian
|
It is alot of money and a big commitment but I'm sure its worth it, not only for confidence reasons but for future dental health, already I can clean and floss my teeth so much easier, I didn't realise how my crooked teeth were stopping me from getting to clean parts of them which would have ended up with them getting cavities and costing money in old age.
It's a big decision though x |

I had my clincheck appointment last Monday, to say I was blown away is an understatement.
I have a complicated case, the lady doing mine had been open that mine is the most complicated case she’s ever done and is being supported on it by an expert. My teeth moved a lot during my pregnancy with my son in 2010 and also suffered a lot of decline in strength. Add to this I have an extremely narrow mouth to the extent it almost cut my lips to do the impressions and I didn’t think this would be possible for me ever! My treatment starts on 19th August and initially they are doing 22 weeks to see where we get too and I will have new impressions and a further 6 months before we review again, it is expected to take around 2years to achieve the end result and I am so excited to finally take the plunge at 31!

Glad you went for it! I'm sure you wont regret it, it will be life changing and worth all the hassle.
I think my treatment time will be around 2 yrs too, I'm already over 5mths in and on tray 18, it has gone so quick and I can really see changes. If you are on Facebook then follow the invisalign groups, I had so many questions or things I wasnt 100% sure on when I first started but I got so many answers just by reading through posts, also seeing peoples progress spurs you on. I'll be away when you get started so I'll say good luck now! First few days are tough but stick at it as it really does get so much easier x |

I had the standard train tracks and I think it cost be about 3 1/2k and in all honesty I wish I had gone for the invisilign. I know someone who has had them recently and they have been amazing! I had mine about 3 years or even longer and it’s not fun, they are very unsightly. I was in my early to mid 40s and felt very self conscious. I ended up losing a tooth as my gums receded with having the brace and now I have a false tooth!

How exciting! Good for you for taking the plunge.
The clincheck is amazing, I came out grinning after it and really excited. Let us know how you get on?

Can anyone advise if you talk weird or have a lisp with these? Are they really noticeable? I’m goingfor a consultation next month but just imagine having plastic covering your teeth looks horrendous!

I had mine fitted yesterday, there is a very slight lisp which is going already as I get used to them.
As for the plastic looking horrendous, no one at work can even see them! People keep asking if they’re actually in there or not! You change them weekly so at least they don’t get discoloured as long as you keep them clean. So far so good for me, I have some slight pain which is mainly when taking them in and out due to the pressure but it soon wears off.
