Invisalign Montreal: Day Five

Haagen Daas, how I love thee. Things are finally getting easier and the aligners don't bother me as much anymore. I still feel like a gimp trying to take my aligners in and out, but it's getting easier too. Too bad I accidentally bit my cheek so now I'm a little chip munky.

*Counts down.. * I have how many trays to go?

I can't take this. Must find ice cream. Need... sustenance...

Someone's kicked my mouth

If Claude Leumieux punched me in the mouth, I think this is what it'd feel like. My teeth are killing me and those pesky elastics are.. gah! The buttons, the pain, need to find me more tylenol 3s. I wonder if L can help me get some.. hum. :)

I'm also starving! It hurts to bite, chew and do anythings so I'm stuck with soft foods. These little aligners are being a pain too and make me concious when eating. My tongue is also killing me because it keeps rubbing that bottom retainer and is making it raw. I CANT STAND IT. I HATE MY MONTREAL ORTHODONTIST. 

I still have way too many sets of aligners to go through as well. Guess I'm going to be eating ice cream lots now.. *hurmph*

Invisalign

Ok, decided on Invisalign and today was day #1! Overbite and crowding means I'm paying too much, but I'm going to have an awesome smile. I hope. I think.

Had the molds done a few weeks ago (while trying desperately to hold down my lunch) and TADA! Today, brand new aligners. Putting them on.. not so yeah. Took an hour for them to go over everything with me and now I have little white notches all over my teeth to hold them in place.

I also don't get to escape having elastics and still have those on my bottom teeth. Soooooo hard to take off! Putting them on though - c'est facile! 

So for the next 1.5 years of my life.. I'm stuck with Invisalign. Let's see what happens shall we?
