Thought i'd add some before photos. I know some of you will think that my wonky tooth is nothing to worry about but when you get bruised from "munching" the inside of your lip continually I thought it time to get it sorted.

Well folks, I thought I'd get my blog started right from the beginning.

Today was the third visit to my ortho and today impressions were taken for sending off to Invisalign. It wasnt a lovely experience but i'm still alive and my teeth are still in my mouth, how I'll never know, they felt like they were being pulled out. He is happy with my impressions and talked me into doing the lower arch to close a gap that didnt even bother me, I know it will now it's been pointed out tho!...
