Well, after about 3 months of to-ing and fro-ing and umming and ah-ing, I've finally got my first trays today. I have 25 for the Upper and 10 on the lower to get through. (will try post some pics up later)

So far so good, feel pretty comfy compared to what I was expecting. However I am totally paranoid about what I look like! Mostly due to saliva bubbles trapped under the trays which look abit odd. Maybe there is a way around this?! I'll have to experiment! And I have the little moulds for attachments, but no attachments yet, so they look abit odd too (attachments getting fitted in a week). Hopefully by Christmas, I'll not think twice about it, or what I look like, but it'll take abit of getting used to I'm sure.

Sure its going to have a good impact on my waistline anyway, flatmates have suggested a night in of nibbles and wine, but I'll only have a healthy meal and a glass before brushing my teeth and putting my trays back in! Hope I don't lose my social life completely tho!

Anyway, looking forward to meeting other invisalign-ers! The dentist showed me the half way through and the final trays - what a motivation!!

    congrats on starting your treatment - you'll be through the 25 trays before you know it. I'd definitely recommend taking pictures along the way to document your teeth movement!

    all the best.
