Locking-in My New Smile with Vivera Retainers!

Hi guys!

How's the month of May doing for you all so far?

Guess what? I have good news! 3 actually. Lol!
1. I'm finally done with my Invisalign treatment!
2. I've been wearing my new Vivera retainers since last week!
3. I'm in Japan now!
Please bear with my exclamations since I've been so happy. What a way to celebrate my new and improved smile, right?

After my latest consultation with my Invisalign dentist, she already noticed that my teeth have already been further straightened with the Additional Aligners and recommended that we order my Vivera retainers to maintain my new smile, so she did. The Vivera retainers were already included in my Invisalign package when I decided to pursue with the treatment late 2014. For Invisalign patients like me, ordering the Viveras are easy since the doctor can just order them based on the last aligner set worn. Invisalign's so high-tech with their unique ClinCheck 3D program of our treatments.

For non-Invisalign patients, don't fret since after your treatment with those traditional metal braces, Vivera retainers are a superior option instead of using metal wire retainers, aside from the fact that the price in the Philippines is very competitive compared to in other countries. Contact Team Invisalign PH at 02 2242108 / 09088178380 / 09175561067 or sign-up at www.invisalign.ph/patient-sign-up to book a FREE INVISALIGN CONSULTATION with an Invisalign doctor. For Invisalign, I've also seen some Facebook ads of doctors who offer discounts/promos, as well as credit card installment payment options, so you may want to take advantage of those while they're still valid. The Invisalign PH Team can connect you to an Invisalign-trained doctor and help get a good deal.

Vivera retainers come in 3 sets to be used every few months.
Here's some more information on Vivera retainers:

After more than a year of my Invisalign Full treatment (Additional Aligners included, package with Viveras), this has all been truly worth it! Before I learned about Invisalign, didn't know that I can straighten my teeth without pain. Invisalign literally erased my fear of going to the dentist. A big thank you to Invisalign, my dentist, and the Invisalign PH Team for taking such good care of me since I began my Journey.

You would like to start your Invisalign Journey, too, huh? Hope you find my blog informative, feel free to go through my previous entries and don't hesitate to ask me for any questions.

Journey to Align

Hey peeps!

How did April go?

As usual, I have been mostly occupied with work, going around our different offices in the country and for various events, too. Owe you all my latest before and after collage, so here it is:


I'm now on my Additional Aligner set 7 of 11 and almost done refining my Invisalign treatment. Here's another current photo of my smile:


Straightening my teeth with Invisalign hasn't held me back even after more than a year of treatment. Invisalign aligners are so dynamic, effective, and removable. They're with me wherever I go and I can eat whatever I want since there are no diet restrictions with Invisalign!

Oh, we're less than a week away from Mother's Day. Did you get your moms their special gifts yet? You may want to consider finally giving your mom the best smile with Invisalign and flexible payment options are available. Contact Team Invisalign PH at 02 2242108 / 09088178380 / 09175561067 or sign-up at www.invisalign.ph/patient-sign-up to book a FREE INVISALIGN CONSULTATION for your mother with an Invisalign doctor! Ask away, too if you have any questions, alright?

I shall keep you all posted again 2 weeks from now when am on my 8th set of 11 Additional Aligners.

Praying for our country's peace and prosperity as well. Allow me to leave you all with this wonderful quote I found:

“If the 'Journey of 1000 miles begins with a single step' - that is prescribed to - ALIGN”

I'm currently on my 7th week of Additional Aligners and halfway through wearing set 4 of 11. As usual, people don't even notice that I have my Invisalign aligners on. Isn't it great that I get to celebrate achievements at work, my birthday, travel, friends' weddings, and niece's graduation with my confident smile?

Celebrate your smilestones with a healthier smile and take advantage of booking that FREE INVISALIGN CONSULTATION! Maximize this long weekend and contact Team Invisalign PH at 09088178380 / 09175561067 or sign-up at www.invisalign.ph/patient-sign-up, so they can endorse you to a certified Invisalign dentist/orthodontist.

I've also heard of fake Invisaligns, so beware and know that others may be offered at a lower price but aren't Invisalign and the quality's bad. Remember that each Invisalign aligner has a serial number, is made of high-grade thermoplastic in the US, BPA-free and FDA-approved. Each Invisalign set is sealed in its own plastic container with the corresponding number, patient's, doctor's names, and they come in an Invisalign box; whereas we're unsure where those fake ones are even made and how they're handled or packed. Others that aren't Invisalign contain BPA which are harmful and smell like plastic. They also don't fit teeth well. On the other hand, Invisalign aligners are customized for each patient, so they fit perfectly right over one's teeth, like mine do. When in doubt, you may ask me or contact Team Invisalign PH, to be sure.

I'll update you all again in the next 2 weeks when on my 6th set of Additional Aligners.

Here's to an Enlightened Holy Week and Happy Easter!

Additional Aligners, Additional Smiles Wherever I Go!

Hey guys!

How were your Chinese New Year and Valentine's weekends?

I have been literally all over the place with work, my Invisalign Additional Aligners travelling along with me around the Philippines. Lol! It's been fantastic and I'm sharing with you all some of my photos on my 1st 2 weeks wearing the Additional Aligners, meeting other awesome people...

After lunch at our Luzon Kick-Off at the World Trade Ctr., one of my colleagues greeted me. I was very humbled by her compliments about my smile, etc. She didn't even notice my Invisalign aligners and had to move closer to my mouth to actually see them since was curious to know that I was really wearing them. Haha! As seen in my 1st photo here above, I co-hosted with the lovely DJ Joyce Pring of Magic 89.9 only during the 1st part of our Kick-Off in the morning. That same colleague who complimented me also said, "Oh, Rainier, that's good you're not hosting anymore this afternoon, so you can rest." I replied to her saying, "Yes, but I'm also hosting the kick-offs in Cebu and Davao!" (among other hosting stints and work engagements) Hehe...

I've been on my 2nd set of Additional Aligners and Invisalign truly doesn't get in the way of my dynamic lifestyle. Even while on treatment to further straighten my teeth in more accurate detail, there are no diet restrictions, so I can eat whatever I want! If you have any questions about Invisalign, ask away or contact Team Invisalign PH at 2242108 / 09088178380 / 09173098380 / www.invisalign.ph/patient-sign-up and they can book you ASAP for a FREE INVISALIGN CONSULTATION!

I'll keep you all posted again in 2 weeks when I change to my 3rd set of Additional Aligners. Love and smiles to each one!

Lucky Me With Additional Aligners!

Hi peeps!

My Additional Aligners finally arrived here in Manila Tuesday morning last week and I got them Friday!

I feel naked without my Invisalign. So happy to have my 3rd box!!! : )smile emoticon‪#‎happykidhere‬ ‪#‎proudinvisalignuser‬

I missed using Invisalign a lot since didn't use it for more than a month after completing my treatment with 2 boxes of aligners. Now, I have 11 sets of Additional Aligners instead and having been using my 1st set, breaking them in since, to further align my teeth in more accurate detail, as previously mentioned in my past blog entry/ies. Great for a year or more of Invisalign treatment, right?

See my photo June 15, 2014 BEFORE I started Invisalign treatment and photo last December 4, 2015 AFTER treatment (before my Additional Aligners).

A big thanks to Invisalign, my colleagues, friends, and family for their compliments about my improved smile (straighter teeth)! Many of my colleagues and friends have been asking about Invisalign. I've referred them to my Invisalign dentist. I'm sure you're interested in Invisalign as well to straighten your teeth, correct your bites (deep-bite, overbite, under-bite) or your loved ones'. Chat with me, book your FREE INVISALIGN CONSULTATION at www.invisalign.ph/patient-sign-up or call Team Invisalign PH at 2242108 / 09088178380 / 09173098380 / 09175561067!

I'll update you all again in 2 weeks when I change to my 2nd set of Additional Aligners. Wishing each of you all the luck and a Happy Lunar New Year!
