So out with tray 8 and on to tray 9 tomorrow (or maybe tonight). Don't tell Dr. A this but I was thinking about cheating and changing trays one night early. I am going to my trial dinner at the reception site on Tuesday and wanted to thoroughly enjoy it without having to mind sore teeth. I figure this is about the only time I'll be able to enjoy the meal since I probably won't have a chance to at my actual wedding. I'm otherwise very compliant when it comes to my trays, really I am!!

Anyhow this particular tray did not leave me nearly as sore as tray 7 for which I am thankful but I have a feeling there will be a lot of movement in tray 9 based on my clincheck. My teeth look like they're straightening out a little more with every tray. I do have some concerns though that first premolar on my top right is getting caught behind my cuspid based on how it feels when I floss and the front of the teeth doesn't fit right into the tray like the others. I'll have to see how tray 9 feels and call Dr. A's office if it doesn't get better.

    Your teeth are looking great Lemon Tree! It's so exciting to watch the changes.

    I'm sure changing one tray a day early for a special occassion, will not affect your treatment. It's more about doing this type of thing too often that can affect tooth movement and often slow it down. Have a great dinner on Tuesday ... hope everything goes smoothly!

    Good luck!

    Thanks Sunny - it's so encouraging and motivating now that I am starting to see things improve consistently.
