The most well known brand for clear aligners is Invisalign. Read on for patient reviews of their experience with Invisalign clear aligners.

already becoming more confident

So, I’m 4 months into my treatment and my aligners feel like second nature now. The benefit is that I’m much more conscious about oral hygiene than I ever was and it’s a great habit to have and maintain for life.

The only challenge would be wearing them for 22 hours a day when I have a work event or a night out and trying to ensure I’m wearing them for the appropriate amount of time for the week and only taking them out when I need to!

I’m already seeing results with the change in my bite and can feel the spaces between my teeth are much easier to clean and floss. Taking my aligners in and out has also become so easy as well as speaking with them in.

I’m looking forward to the next stages of my journey as I’m already becoming more confident and smiling with my teeth which I would never do previously!

So excited to see the final result!

So I’m almost done with my Invisalign treatment and I’m getting so excited because I can finally see what the end results will look like!

By this stage, putting in and taking out my retainers has become a second-nature practice. They're so easy to quickly remove for an event or a lunch and slip back on right after. Even after having elastics added into my treatment, the process is just as simple and easy! (Top tip: bring a few extra elastics around with you in your Invisalign case. They're so tiny and easy to lose, so a few extras on hand is definitely a good idea.)

I've only got a few more aligners left now, and almost all of my teeth issues have disappeared! Crooked teeth, gone! Overlapping, no more! I feel like I can finally smile with confidence in photos, and not be as worried about food getting caught in my teeth.

I’m also so used to the feeling of putting on new sets of aligners at this stage! I only get a little bit of tenderness on the first day, then it goes away! I’m also finding that I can also almost use the Dental Monitoring App (which I use to scan my teeth before changing aligners) with my eyes closed! (Almost, hahaha)

So excited to see the final result!

Worth It

The day I got my invisalign I cried because It was uncomfortable, I was overthinking the way It looked, and my speech was off. I remember thinking what did I get myself into?! Flash forward to a year later, and I have zero regrets. After the first week, things became more normal and no one really notices them. You can see them, sure, but if you're going to a big event just leave them out - the show goes on. Additionally, set realistic expectations. I did mine for an overbite, and could not be happier with the results, but I know a lot of that is because of being logical. I still have a semi overbite, but invisalign did wonders to It and I feel so much more confident now!Worth every annoying time brushing 5 times a day, waiting to drink my coffee, etc. If this is something you have been thinking about, just jump and do It - the quicker you start the quicker you will be done - you won't ever regret It! and hang in there if you're like me on those first days - It will be worth It.
