So I completed all 49 weeks of the Invisalign & got new impressions of my teeth taken. This is called a revision as my teeth didn't quite move all the ways we wanted them to. The new ones are not nearly as hard and quite flexible. I have 10 lowers and 12 uppers, so 24 more weeks. Originally, they said I'd have a Hollywood Smile when complete and now I notice more how a couple of my teeth by my incisors aren't even with the rest of my teeth. Plus, a couple teeth have worn down from the trays or I had a chip and never really noticed it before.
They only put one more "button" on one tooth to help move it and they had to "shave" some teeth .1 millimeters up to .3 mm on a few more in order to either move them and let the trays fit between them all or line them all up. I'm already on tray #3 out of 10 & 12. 9/20/10 I should be completed & they can do the cosmetics to make them all even. Time will tell, but I can now floss daily!
Hi Brett! Do you have pictures of your teeth? Anyway, I'm not very happy with the appearance of my teeth that's why I consulted with a cosmetic dentist (Maryville, TN based) and she suggested that I take advantage of the Invisalign treatment that they're offering, for me to have that Hollywood smile! I have heard a lot of great things about this so I'm really looking forward to having my first tray! I'm really very positive about this and can't wait to undergo the treatment in Maryville, TN. Cosmetic dentistry will definitely be a big business as many people want to have that perfect smile!
