More than 5 Months with Invisalign and Seeing Further Progress!

Today, I just wanted to point out that after speaking with other people who had regular metal braces before and hearing of their painful, unpleasant experiences, they were shocked to know that the Invisalign treatment I am having is COMPLETELY painless. There is no tightening of wires which they experienced nor hard pressures on the teeth. Everything with Invisalign is pain-free, convenient, yet effective and fast. I feel in control of the treatment since I need to ensure that I use the Invisalign aligners consistently. Compliance is key.

For me, the most difficult part of the Invisalign treatment was the first set of trays or aligners and those first 2 weeks. Looking back now, I wonder what I was uncomfortable about! With anything new, adjustments in time are made in order to feel more comfortable. After adjusting to speaking with the aligners, I've been feeling more confident and comfortable with them. Using them now is just like second nature to me and I don't worry about them anymore. I even forget that I'm wearing them most of the time and enjoy knowing that everyday I am a step closer to having the perfect smile.













I am definitely looking forward to these next 4 weeks of treatment and seeing further progress!

5 Months of Invisalign Treatment and Improvements Are Noticeable!

I am now 5 months into my Invisalign treatment and time flies indeed! 

Now the aligners just feel so natural to me. That 1st week was pretty difficult for me to get used to the feeling of the aligners and removing them were particularly uncomfortable. Currently, I actually enjoy the feeling of the new set of aligners since the tightness during the 1st few days of use lets me know they're doing their job. I just make sure to wear the new trays at night before bed. That way, I don't have to worry about taking them off after a few hrs. I have been in a routine of brushing my teeth and aligners 1st thing in the morning, after eating, and at night. It only takes seconds to remove them and put them back on! I don't need to look in a mirror or fiddle around with them anymore since they're just so easy to use.

The other great news is that my teeth are already noticeably more aligned, compared to before! They are almost completely straightened out! I honestly cannot believe how quickly these changes have been happening, especially since my treatment is still in the beginning stages, but I absolutely LOVE it! I have been smiling more confidently, while many of my colleagues, closest friends, and family have mentioned to me that they have been noticing the changes already with my teeth... AMAZING!

Part of the reason for such quick results has to do with my Invisalign dentist who really worked on my treatment plan and continues to help me monitor my treatment's progress, even by mobile.

I am also re-posting here below 1 of my photos from when I started using Invisalign, so you can compare with my latest photo and see the progress for yourself. My Invisalign treatment's really great and I could not be more happier.




I'll continue to share my treatment updates with you all in the next 2 weeks and make sure to respond to any comments or questions you may have. So far, I really hope my blog has been of some help to anyone seeking information about Invisalign.
