My Invisalign Experience: June 2009
http://bracedwithinvisalign.blogspot.com/2009_06_01_archive.html
Friday, June 19, 2009. Glad to be on to Tray 6! Well, I have to say, I'm glad to be on to Tray 6. Tray 5 felt really bulky and it was a struggle to keep it on. I'm supposed to change trays every Thursday, or every 14 days. This time, I just couldn't hang out any longer and by Wednesday afternoon, I popped in tray 6 and was soooo relieved! Tray 6 feels so much better for some reason. It just doesn't have that big bulky feel. I almost don't even feel like they're in my mouth. Seriously! Links to this post.

My Invisalign Experience: It's been a while...
http://bracedwithinvisalign.blogspot.com/2009/09/its-been-while.html
Wednesday, September 23, 2009. It's been a while. On to Tray 13. To recap: My treatment plan is for 15 uppers and 14 lowers. It's been a while since I've blogged. Why? Well, mainly because I haven't seen much change and I couldn't quite come up with something to write about other than to say get up, brush, floss, stare at my teeth a little and then get on with my day. I went for my hygiene appointment and my gums are doing extremely well and we had a whole conversation on how could one possibly not floss?

My Invisalign Experience: The half way point and other people's teeth!
http://bracedwithinvisalign.blogspot.com/2009/07/half-way-point-and-other-peoples-teeth.html
Sunday, July 19, 2009. The half way point and other people's teeth! This week, I visited my ortho and he inserted Tray 8 which officially takes me to the half way point, well for the uppers at least! I'm past it for the lowers. He gave me sets 9, 10, and 11 to take with me and when I got back into the car I just couldn't believe that with the exception of one or two more visits, the regular part of my treatment would be done. How time flies! Dare I say, I can cross this off my 'bucket list' in the not to...

My Invisalign Experience: June 2010
http://bracedwithinvisalign.blogspot.com/2010_06_01_archive.html
Tuesday, June 1, 2010. The last time I wrote was September 2009. Let me catch you up on what's happened since then. I finished my original treatment of 15 upper and 14 lower trays. And yes, the front gap was still there in full view after tray 15.if I wasn't careful when I had the trays out while eating, I could easily squish food right through there not to mention liquids. Disappointed? Shock #2.I went in for my refinement trays expecting about 3 maybe 4 trays. There were 16 uppers! So, here I was with ...

http://bracedwithinvisalign.blogspot.com/2009/05/im-mid-way-through-tray-3-and-im.html
Friday, May 15, 2009. I'm mid-way through Tray 3 and I'm finding my speech a little difficult. I think the bottom tray of this set goes a little deeper into my mouth and I'm finding it sometimes difficult when I talk fast so I have to be really conscious to talk slow or I end up sounding funny. I have uploaded my clincheck video. I watch this all the time! It's only 3 seconds and it goes rather quick. May 17, 2009 at 8:53 AM. My dentist doesnt know how to send me a copy of my clin check but thats OK.

My Invisalign Experience: April 2009
http://bracedwithinvisalign.blogspot.com/2009_04_01_archive.html
Thursday, April 23, 2009. Tray 2 - The Big Squeeze! Today I got my second tray and LOTS of IPR! I got the front teeth all 'shaved' a little so there are gaps and it looks terrible! My ortho told me that I'm going to hate him for a little while but in about 8 months I'm going to love him so hopefully all those gaps will close! One added bonus though.I've lost 4 pounds! Straight teeth and weight loss.in 8 months.now that will be quite the change! Links to this post. Thursday, April 16, 2009. After about th...

My Invisalign Experience: Week 8, Tray 4
http://bracedwithinvisalign.blogspot.com/2009/05/week-8-tray-4.html
Friday, May 29, 2009. Week 8, Tray 4. I think my work colleagues are beginning to notice. I was an avid coffee drinker and I've stopped that because of the hassle of having to take the trays out and brush my teeth. I now have a cupboard full of bottled water since I seem to be drinking lots of it! I have mentioned to several people if I notice that they are staring at my teeth (probably me thinking that they are staring at my teeth more than anything). That was 14 years ago! That's it for now! Keep with ...
