My experience with Invisalign


Some of you might not have heard about what Invisalign is? So I’ll explain first. Invisalign is a method to straighten your teeth. How? - With almost invisible plastic trays. Each of them has to be worn for 2 weeks. The length of the treatment varies from case to case (6 months to 3 years or longer).


In case some of you have not noticed, I’ve been wearing them since August. But why did I decide to get them and when?? It was almost one year ago when I decided to make an appointment with my dentist to see what options I had to straighten my teeth. I could have decided to get brackets or Invisalign trays. My decision was, of course, to wear Invisalign trays, since they are almost invisible. Before they started preparing my trays, I could see what my teeth would look like once it is finished. It looked amazing. However, it took them three months to prepare my 36 pairs of aligners. It was the end of July when I first got them. OMG, it hurt so much the first night and at the beginning I could hear a little bit of a lisp. But I go used to them and it’s getting better from tray to tray.

I would recommend choosing Invisalign as a method to straighten your teeth. As I mentioned, they are almost invisible. No one will notice and they don’t hurt as much as brackets.
