Girl get normal braces. This shit takes forever. The time you have to wait for aligners, refinements and retainers is insane. My treatment took a 2 years. 8 months of those 2 yeas was just pure waiting with no active treatment.

A tip I learned is always put in your new tray at night cause the first few hours are the most painful, so you’ll sleep through it rather than making it more sore by having to remove them to eat

People saying just get braces don't understand that SOME people don't want dark yellow squares on their teeth after like 3 years with them on

I’m 7 weeks in and once it gets easier, it’s time for a tray change 😂 it’s basically months of hell! But, hopefully worth it

I did aligners to fix my crowding and it only took a year. Idk why people saying it takes a long time? I think if you’re not consistent with it it probably takes long

I actually preferred the aligners that felt tight. It reassured me that my teeth were moving into a better position

My orthodontist told my kids to change to the new ones before bed time so you sleep with them on and they don’t feel so bad

I believe braces are more expensive than Invisalign’s

I'm on set 5. 6ish weeks in. if you take pain killers and change trays before bed then all the beginning pain is while you sleep

invisalign was the best thing I ever did for myself 🥰 I had 24 trays. one of my trays maybe around tray 13, woke me up in the night the pain was so bad. i had to go back a tray. it turned out I needed a filling, that's why the next tray hurt so much! 🥲
