OMG my retainer hurts more than my invisalign braces

they keep digging into my gums, my teeth are insanely sore, and my tongue is getting ripped up everytime i talk

Invisalign never hurt... yet my final retainer is just killing me

four weeks of wearing this full time???? Im gonna die

I also noticed that after braces my bite is all screwed up and i tend to only bite down on one side... my dad says my jaw will naturally fix that and find its real placement and that its just trying to bite where it used to and that i shouldn't worry too much about that...

but GAH STUPID RETAINER!!!!!! Im popping ibuprofen like crazy to numb the pain ]]> mindlessswirl http://www.bracesreview.com/forums/blogs/mindlessswirl/pain-586/ http://www.bracesreview.com/forums/blogs/mindlessswirl/ivisalisgn-complete-584/ Fri, 19 Jun 2009 05:47:19 GMT Invisalign treatment is now complete! what do u think? lower teeth before Image:...

I am so glad to have those 10 attachments off... my teeth are nice and smooth... My retainer hurts like its moving my teeth or something... its weird... and it like suctions to my teeth... it also had sharp edges to it but i filed those down with an emery board ]]> mindlessswirl http://www.bracesreview.com/forums/blogs/mindlessswirl/ivisalisgn-complete-584/ http://www.bracesreview.com/forums/blogs/mindlessswirl/aligner-4-222/ Thu, 06 Nov 2008 18:28:32 GMT So we are no on aligner 4...

Went to my orthodontist on monday to get my teeth slimmed again so there can be spaces for teeth to move... let me tell ya... flossing has never been this easy... My dentist used to not be able to floss my teeth they were so crowded now there is space between my teeth nice hahaha

I had to replace another attachment... It didn't fall off but when it was made it apparently had an air pocket in it and the stress from removing the attachments made the air pocket pop and food was getting stuck inside the attachment... I kept it that way for about 2 weeks since the attachment was still doing its job and the food wasnt touching the tooth

So now I have had 5 attachments replaced (1 was replaced twice, so 4 teeth affected) I swear I have the worst luck with them

But none have cracked or fallen off with set 4 which is now becoming loose on my teeth already and the pressure is going away... I had a lot of painw ith this set but only because it was changed in the morning at the orthodontist rather than changing it at night like I normally do

And Ive also learned how to make sure the retainers dont get stained and nasty smelling which is great because I dont have to be self conscious about that ]]> mindlessswirl http://www.bracesreview.com/forums/blogs/mindlessswirl/aligner-4-222/ http://www.bracesreview.com/forums/blogs/mindlessswirl/onto-aligner-3-206/ Thu, 16 Oct 2008 06:00:25 GMT Wow I can't believe Im starting aligner 3... time flies when youre having fun huh?

this time around there isnt as much pressure on the teeth as there was last time...

Im hoping come tomorrow that I wont lose another attachment... I lost 1 on the first day of the first aligner and i lost 3 on the first and second days of the 2nd aligner... i hope third times the charm and i wont lose anymore ]]> mindlessswirl http://www.bracesreview.com/forums/blogs/mindlessswirl/onto-aligner-3-206/ http://www.bracesreview.com/forums/blogs/mindlessswirl/video-189/ Wed, 08 Oct 2008 18:04:58 GMT I just saw my invisalign video... pretty cool stuff Front view Image: https://www4.orthosesame.com/invisalign_cases/351/1207096_f.gif Lower...
