    Hi 52 years old and new to Invisalign

    I am on tray 2 of 51(upper and lower)! I know I am in for a long road but I am so excited to be finally doing something to straighten my own teeth. I have 3 kids who have all been through braces and now it's my turn. I was told by my orthodontist (an elite provider) that on a scale of difficulty of 1-10 that I am a 9! No matter. I've waited a long time to do this and I will see it through. I will have attachments put on in 2 weeks. I have been able to tolerate the discomfort. It does make my teeth feel "tinglely".

    Congratulations to you debaudrn! I also am 52 and wearing Invislaign. I started in July 2011 and finish up in a couple weeks. I had braces as a teenager but over 35 years my front 2 upper teeth seperated and it has always bothered me. Invisalign has done a great job of closing the gap. Best of luck with your treatment. It will be well worth it for you!
