What a great site! I just started using Invisalign and have a great dentist here in Mississippi. I look forward to sharing my results.

I am just getting started with Invisalign in NY. I have been quoted $3500 for the enitre 24 month treatment. Anyone else have rates this high?

Cool website. I'm in my 8th month of treatment and love it. I'll post some before and after pictures shortly.

Hi Everyone - great site. I am 2 months or so in to the invisalign experience and am looking forward to hearing how everyone does with this. Is it to good to be true (apart from the cost - £4400 here in the UK ) ??

I am about 8 months into my treatment. Cost me $4200 US

I love it so far.. I'll see if I can find some initial pictures of my teeth before hand. The ortho has the good shots..

I look forward to hearing other experiences.

$4200 is about average.

I agree $4200 seems about right.. I'm not sure what my total is going to be but the estimate is around $4,500...

Tague and JMC, as you are a little way in now - how long was it before you could see a noticable improvement?

I had a gap in the middle of my bottom teeth that just about close in 2 months.. you could feel how tight the retainers are right away and you can feel your teeth moving.. it did hurt to eat hard foods for the first fews days of the retainer.. but NO PAIN, NO GAIN! :lol:

Hello, Im on my second set of trays. I have to have 18 trays for my bottom teeth, and a massive 88 for my top teeth! Aboo! I was really enthusiastic about the whole thing until I have found people on some sites, including this one saying its not working for them!

I have just shelled out £3800 which I had to borrow to pay for this and so I want it to work really badly.

I have had to get 10 attachments which my dentist said is a record! He's never seen such a complex case. I am finding it extremely difficult to get the aligners off with these attachments on, does anyone have any tips please!

I need a bit of a boost about these, please can someone who it has worked for or who it is working for please drop us a line! It would be very much appreciated...

Thanks

Hang in there twisha. It will get better, and if your dentist accepted you into Invisalign, I'm confident that it will work for you..

Metal braces are a better fit for some people and cases, but you can be assured that Invialign works on most people that dentist see fit.

Give it some more time.. The Retainers are just as tight as metal braces and work. NO PAIN NO GAIN is a true statement.

Keep us informed to your progress.

I had the invisalign braces put on just today. My teeth hurt so bad. I guess this is normal. After putting the traditional (metal) braces on my 3 sons it was finally my turn. I called all of them to talk to them about the aching in my mouth - the laughed at me!! I just hope I can sleep tonight. If not I guess that I will just take a "pill". Any other suggestions will be greatly appreciated.
