Hi Kitty, I’m so pleased to hear that you have finished and that you are so thrilled with your new smile! I remember you emailing me earlier in the treatment… Like you I wish I had done this many years ago, but of course Invisalign wasn’t around then so it would have been a very different proposition.

Anyway, congratulations on your new smile! Thank you so much for taking the time to read my blog and commenting on here. When I get messages like this it makes me feel that the whole blogging process had been worthwhile. Thanks again Kitty. Good luck with you retention and enjoy your new smile.

I finished my invisalign express and 1 set of refinements, and every tray, every minute was worth it. 20 trays total. Your blog has been an inspiration to me and I thank you! I thought that at age 60, it wouldn’t make that much difference and I was so mistaken! My smile is very bright, very straight, and I have no problem wearing my retainers, which I do no matter what. I also had my teeth whitened for the maximum effect! My only regret was that I waited so long!

have performed a invisalign in London procedures on many clients the aesthetic qualities are certainly much better than traditional braces.

haha, you’re so funny. I’ve left my aligners out overnight once as well (took out my aligners for my wedding and left them at my parents’ house) and the dull ache it caused for the next few hours was more than enough to discourage me from ever doing it again.

Glad to see you are still blogging (so many of the others that started out at the same time as us are finished – I’m so jealous!) and that your treatment is going well. I am still plugging along with tray 7/23 refinements at the moment. Take care.

Hi there,
My overjet was apparently between 8-9mm when I started treatment. I think it is down to more like 3-4 currently and improving every day.

I think for me the most important thing was finding a suitably experienced Invisalign orthodontist. Is your orthodontist very experienced in Invisalign? If not then perhaps you should also seek other opinions. i had several before I started treatment.

Thanks for reading, good luck with making your decision. I don’t have a single regret about choosing Invisalign.

Hey, I’m still debating between getting invisalign or braces but you’re before and after pics are definitely swaying my opinion. I had braces as a kid so my teeth are not in that bad a shape despite some crookedness and overcrowding due to not wearing my retainer. For aesthetic purposes an orthodontist told me Invisalign would work. I do have a pretty bad overbite though and she doesn’t believe it will help with this. how many mm was your overbite when u started treatment?

Only found your blog today. Verrrrry informative. Am due to start a 30-tray treatment on 25th February so was looking for experiences – particularly about attachments as I’m to have some on my 2 front teeth and am feeling a bit nervous (vain?) about this. However, your pics and words make me feel it’s all worth it.

Hi Rich,
Thanks for the message and thank you so much for pointing out that my archives weren’t working, hopefully it is fixed now… please let me know if you still can’t see them.

I have a very experienced orthodontist, some of the others said too that this couldn’t be done, but my ortho reckons that he can now do almost anything with Invisalign that he can with normal braces.

I had 17 upper and 34 lower trays, plus 6 extra upper refinements so far. Those weren’t for the expansion, more because I had a front tooth that didn’t quite rotate enough (and is still being a little stubborn)I wore each one for 2 weeks so I am a year in thus far. Much of that time was spent on the fact that I need to make room for a tooth on the bottom that grows out of line with the others and it needs a lot of space to move into place.

I have absolutely no regrets whatsoever about Invisalign, and would have no hesitation in recommending it with the proviso that I would only go with an experienced provider, and also that I prefer an orthodontist to a dentist.

Thanks again for reading.
