I'm an avid follower of your blog and pretty much devoured every post within an hour or so of finding your site (from Archwired). Our cases began around the same time - I started after you in January (I'm on tray 4), and am expected to finish in November (but I expect refinements are almost compulsory for many patients). I'm in Australia too, in Melb, and am getting upper and lower teeth done for overcrowding, 22U and 22L (except my upper look much worse to me and were the reason for me starting). I just recieved 5 attachments on the lower and 2 on the upper last Wednesday, and have been happily sympathizing with you when reading your posts!<br/><br/>Your writing is witty, descriptive and entertaining, and it's so great to read along on the journey of someone at such a similar stage in this journey to myself. I always intended to start a blog myself, but my procrastination got the better of me - so now I'll have to live vicariously through your blog! <br/><br/>x Emma. >Hey there !

I live in Canada so I'd assume we'd have similar services compared to the US but that may or may not be the case. <br/><br/>I hope your current tray feels more comfortable soon.

What was the difference between the 2 sets, was it simply the rigidity of the trays? >Thank you Lizzy, I’ll get the ortho to check.

It is LizzyM here. I was just reading about your crack (as in the one in your aligners hahahahaha).<br/><br/>I had a slight crack in my 5th tray and it turned out that my aligners were very flimsy and I got a whole new replacement set. It took 10 days to arrive. Not so bad. I am in Melb.<br/><br/>Next time you are at your ortho, get them to check out the trays and make sure that they are not faulty.<br/><br/>Great blog btw. >Hi Ya!

Next time you are at your ortho, get them to check out the trays and make sure that they are not faulty.

Great blog btw.
