It's been a little over 3 weeks since my last post but I had to push my ortho appointment back because of my schedule. I learned that wearing the same tray for three weeks is not fun. I'm so glad to have a new one.

Today was the start of tray 3. I went to the ortho and had some attachments/buttons put on. It was the longest visit yet but it was to be expected. I have 13 attachments (8 on top, 5 on the bottom). I was so shocked by this number, I was expecting more like four...

I just started week 3 (tray 2) a few minutes ago. I wasn't at the orthodontist's office long, maybe 10-15 minutes total.

... Invisalign.

It's been a little over three hours since I left the orthodontist office with that decision made. I visited the ortho today to discuss the records he did on my teeth last week and to make the final decision on which type of braces I would wear for the next year or so. It came down to ceramic braces and Invisalign. I chose the aligners.

After making that decision, I was supposed to set up another appointment with his office to do impressions but...
