She's adorable, this is great. I'm on tray 11 (at a different practice) and just got IPR. However, I have to disagree with the first point. Most patients underestimate how painful orthodontics can be. I really suffered in the beginning with facial pain and headaches. It's better now but was no joke. Really painful. But still better than traditional braces. Biggest tip I found on CZcams was to store trays in a cup or container of mouthwash when out of the mouth. Especially when at home, when you are eating or brushing, drop them in a cup of mouthwash.
@@johnsysays depends on where you are located, how long your treatment will take and how much work your teeth need. Where I live the average price is about £3000 ($4000) but most places offer monthly payments over the course of your treatment
@@muhammadislam4640 YOU ARE SO LUCKY! I live in London and with a black Friday deal, I got a few hundreds pounds off. RRP 4000
@@johnsysays I think you can get an estimate for free. All depends on the length of treatment. I had a pretty serious case. 2 year treatment almost 6,000 USD
@@johnsysays located in the US- vegas to be specific, invis. Is gonna cost $5k we’re financing them. Same cost as wire braces. My treatment is a 2yr plan.
@@johnsysays mine were £4600
I'll give you some tips.
1- Best relief is keeping ice cold water in your mouth specificaly wherever is most itchy. Huge relief!!!
2- Pick a side and pull them out from the inner-side of your mouth on your wisdom teeth, and it easily peels off of your teeth.
3- Try to keep ur upper and lower jaw seperated, the less ur trays touch each other, the less u feel ur teeth. I know it is kind of tough but by biting ur trays u make ur teeth and gum more alert and sensitive against pain. Not letting ur trays touch each other helps pretending that they r not there.
4- In my case, on the 4th day (after the 3rd day of teeth, jaw and head aches) I realized it started to cause more pain to not to have them on. So try to keep them on as long as u can.
5- Don't try to give your teeth a moment of relief by taking your trays out even for one second because your teeth lean more on going to where they were rather than stay where they r. So you would cause urself longer periods of pain in return of a second of relief.
Peace ✌️ I hope ur experience is less painful and annoying than mine.
Adding one tip: Change your retainers at night before you sleep. Let the worst adjustment period happen while you sleep! :)
@@xXMonstarX I did change my first retainers and had no trouble really. And I must add that I don't use medicine in general, maybe pain killers would have helped somebody else.
She’s so sweet
If anyone is doubtful I’m just saying DO IT! Invest in yourself it’s worth it at the end. I’m halfway through and see major changes. Expensive but well worth it. Biggest con is not being able to snack much haha feel free to ask questions!!
Hello Daniel, from where I can order this kit? Or do I need to go to dentist for recommendation? I mean how to start?
TIA.
Hi, could you tell me what do you do when go out for lunch/dinner? How do you manage it? Thanks
@@fnma21 hi make sure you bring your case out with you. I would go to the bathroom and pop my aligners out when the food was almost served and then try and rinse after with water or mouthwash and pop them back in after the meal. At first I was bringing a toothbrush and toothpaste with me but it was too much. Hope that helped, any questions feel free to ask
@@umakalidindi8797 yes you need to see an orthodontist and he will do everything for you
Hi Daniel, how easy they are to break and how cautious i should be with them?
Thank you for this! Just started treatment. I have 32 trays. Excited to start this journey! Everything said in this video is 100% in what my Orthodontist advised for me
Hey, how are the aligners going for you?
I just started my treatment today and that pain is all they said. I’ve had braces before but didn’t wear my retainer (this was around 4 years ago) so I paid the price and now have this
She seems so neat and organized. I’m nervous about starting my treatment but I thought I might as well do it now while face masks are still in style. I hope it works
just started my process today!!..fairly invisible
@@mi6uelmeza I’m getting mine installed in a week and a half . I hope they don’t put a lot of hooks on my teeth. And also I hope it works
Ugh it’s been almost a month and I’m kind of over it already. It is SUCH a slow, time consuming process and commitment. I hope it’s worth it in the end and that I don’t need a lot of refinements. Wish there was a way to speed up the process but I guess I’m kinda stuck with it now. All sales are final lol
I’m nervous too. I’m about to change my mind-I’m not looking forward to headaches and general sore mouth.
@@r.gonzalez9655 how did it go? Any pain or discomfort?
Omg she is precious. God makes beautiful things. ❤️
•Do not brush ur aligners with toothpaste bc it will turn yellow somehow..
•It's not painful, jus uncomfortable when being worn.
•lifetime retainers on nightime to keep your teeth trained in the right places.
Thank you so much!!! This information was very helpful.
Thank you for this. I’m getting them in a few weeks so this really helps
Thank you so much for sharing I’m on tray 5 right now 😊
Amazing videos. Everything explained clearly
Extremely helpful video on Aligner.
We are so happy to hear the video was helpful!
She’s so sweet and smiley
Lovely to watch 😊
I have an appointment to look at options in a few days and am a little nervous. This was very helpful!
Thanks - this was nice & to-the-point! I had to sift through too many vlogs about first-hand experiences with Invisalign...but jeez...sometimes you just want the facts.
Did you watch Real Cat Gone Crazy’s vlog? Do not miss it! Amazing transformation and lots of great ideas.
This was a great video. I just ordered my set from my orthodontist today 🥰. I'm excited.
She said it clearly.thank you
She's so cute.i love her smile.😄
Great video! i just started my journey two days ago and after watch so many video. I was expecting to be in severe pain . Its the second day and def not in "pain" . obv you do feel discomfort but its more like soreness than pain.
Hi Oscar. Getting Invisalign is an exciting experience! By the time you know it, you’ll have that amazing smile!
Thank you! We are so happy to hear the video was helpful! 😄
Hey thanks for commenting! How much was the charge for this?
@@JuanManuel-hn5xt I just got Invisalign 4 days ago, my dad payed $5000 for 2 years
Thank you it was very helpful for me.
We are so happy to hear the video was helpful!
This helped me here in Sweden
I start my Invisalign tomorrow, this video was really helpful!!
update?
I'm so glad I found this very educational and straight-to-the-point video about aligners. I'm getting my aligners placed tomorrow morning !! Super nervous and excited. I'm thinking maybe I should take a Tylenol before I go to my appointment, cause everyone is saying you may get a headache and such. All of my teeth have spaces and I do have a gap in the front as well. My orthodontist/dentist said " this is going to be a really good case", " but you have to wear your aligners like you're supposed to ." So I'm super excited. I'm tired of my gap and my spaced-out teeth. Thanks for this INFORMATIVE video !
How are you doing ?
Your the perfect dentist
Also, an tip for you all that really works well for me, use those medical hand gloves while taking the trays out, it will help immensely with the grip and of course it's more sanitary.
O my God she looking is sooo sweet as suger🍭🍭.... , Thanku for knowledge about this coz I have also having invisible retainer ..... 💟💟♥️
Jenny was my ortho in high school and gave me my braces!! Sorry for not wearing my rubber bands 😂😂
at 4:15 " you will have to wear your set of retainers night time for a life time" with a smile, great seller !!
Don't you do the same after braces?
couple of other things to note, if you have the attachments, they will be VERY rough and uncomfortable at first. Also, depending on where the attachments are, it's likely that you won't be able to fully close your mouth, which will make it fairly difficult to chew. Also, depending on where the attachments are, they can create some pretty serious pinch points, and the insides of your cheeks can be super susceptible to being bitten by the attachments. All in all, the attachments cause all of the problems haha.
Aren’t you supposed to temporarily removed them before eating or drinking though?
@@amonyaw you remove the plastic Invisalign trays themself yes, but the attachments or "buttons" are cemented onto your teeth, those won't be removed until the entire treatment is over.
Hello ma'am, my problem with retainers is wearing them at the night and going to sleep . It disturbs my sleep,so can you please make a video on tips to sleep with retainers
❤️ ur video thanks 🙏🏼 I’m planning to wear those. I use wear before braces but my tooth is fucked up
Such a helpful video
She’s so pretty❤️
She is so sweet!
If you get acid refluxes when wearing invisalign do you need to take the aligners off so that the acid don’t get trapped in the aligners?
love the video
Hii I’m getting Invisalign today!!
Thank you
It is very important the dental provider should organize an competent orthodontist(s) who qualified Invisalign product and services, especially Invisalign orthodontist going for vacation or resign from dental provider. It is mainly supporting Invisalign attachment it may loss sometime. Most of dental 🦷 clinic run the Invisalign business without qualified supporting Dr during emergency leave or vacation of Invisalign doctor. Be careful about service, do no worry about products. Thank you
Invisalign is painful. Especially when they add the attachments. That “pressure” is pain lmao. But it does go away in 2-3 days lol
I just started today and they put on 17 attachments (10 on top, 7 on bottom). It’s been 4 hours and it hurts as much as when I had braces as a teen
Exactly I’m wearing them now and they hurt some of my teeth especially when taking them on and off, I’m a new wearer I’m on day 5 and my teeth also feel loose without the aligner obviously due to movement but it’s a very uncomfortable feeling and makes chewing food hurt too!
@@pebbles987 I highly recommend getting an Ortho key to take the aligners out!
This reminds me that I should take Advil the day of and for the following days I start my process...
Dr Zhu nicely explained and u have adorable smile, i have a question, teeth attachments are necessary for invasalign treatment,or it varies case by case?my orthodontice not advised teeth attachments is that fine?
Can’t wait to move to tray 3 of 32! Hopefully just 32 and no refinements 🤞
I'm planning on doing invisalign on the top jaw only but my orthodontist is suggesting I also wear a retainer for the lower jaw. Is that mandatory or can I just do the top jaw invisalign?
respectfully, i need her
Thanks for all this information, I have little gap between my front teeth (1-2-3) . Can be fixed ?
Yes it can
i have a small gap as well, it looks like it will be fixed!!
She is soo cute!!
She is so pretty.
I can not get the strip through between canine and molars. Any tips?
Can i buy Invisalign and use it with out going to doctor?
Cute & informative
Do you wear it when you sleep?
What do you mean by using the retainer life time
she looks so sweet!
I’m starting my journey in about 6 weeks! I’m soo excited! I hate my teeth😅
it hurts so bad 😭 but good luck on ur journey
@@pandaaa.does it hurt that bad! I thought it didn't hurt much that's why I'm going to get it.?
Hi i am 35 years of age does it more effective to the people like my age?
How many hours at night do you have to wear your retainer ?
After while you won’t feel them at all and can pop them in and out with no problems. Be aware tho that they can pull off a crown. And be aware that you will start clenching your teeth all the time causing jaw pain.
I’m currently on set 4 tysmmm
Are the attachments gotten rid of after treatment?
Do the attachments get taken off when the treat is done? Someone please answer
Can I get Invisalign as reorthodontic treatment ?
I have a 3-4mm over-jet. I question if this is even worth addressing as a young adult. My orthodontist said that Invisalign or braces would be purely cosmetic and not necessary. I previously had orthodontic treatment as a child but never finished the treatment or got retainers. Idk if I should just get retainers (to avoid any more movement)or go for Invisalign.
yes definitely go for Invisalign. I'm actually a dentist and u should go for it it is 100% worth it.
How much expensive this service is ??
waiting for fifth tooth removal and crown align dentures
Hey is it painful
are they made in Sri Lanka?
yes
So you have to wear the retainer for a lifetime if you go with invisalign? Does that mean traditional metal braces is better because you don't have to wear retainer after the process?
They say you have to wear a retainer for life after braces or Invisalign
My dentist recommended changing out the aligner each week, but you say every two weeks. Will this vary by patient and dentist?
yes, follow what ur orthodontist says
@@pandaaa. is the orthodontist the person who fits the aligners in or do you go to a separate one
What if I’m on the session all day drinking Guinness, then end the day with a Balti, as I get my Invisalign next week and I love my Guinness oh and red wine 😮😂
Is there any metal wires placed inside the teeth during Invisalign process?
No it’s all clear except for the attachments but that depends if you need them or not. Just got mine today. Super excited and only slight discomfort no real pain only when putting on or off.
With the attachments, is anyone not able to bite all the way down? I can’t and it makes it very hard to chew and eat
I just got the invisalign yesterday and yes it's hard to chew.. very uncomfortable lmao
You are not supposed to eat with them on
For the first couple week it will be hard to bite all the way down but it will get better and more natural. When I first got mine I thought that my ortho messed it up
@@Hedgeflexlfz they meant that the attachment is in the way so they can’t bite down all the way. Obviously you need to take them off to eat
@@Don_Piscatella same thing hard to eat with
It’s my first day
Will Invisalign help weak chin my age is 21
I have a crush on this doctor
pressure=pain
Lol
I get mine on tomorrow. I’ve been holding off for 20 years but finally doing it. Thank goodness for edibles so I won’t have any issues going to sleep😂
My dentist told me to change the aligners every 10 days
Not 2 weeks
It’s different for everyone. I know someone who changes every week.
i've heard many only go to 10 days towards the end, at times when there is little movement
@@fairyfreak1 like me, this is my second day, but after 6 days i need to change.
Mine is 2 weeks
They told me 10 days too
Does it bring your teeth back together just like braces?
yes
Is invisalign best for people with crowned teeth? Or braces?
The Invisalign pulled off my crown
@@truly3743 During the process? Or the dentist took it? And what happened after it was pulled off?
Can you get the Dimples/Attachments removed after the treatment?
Yes, your dentist/ortho will remove them
My dentist said a invisalign process will take roughly 6-7 weeks for me, because it is only one front tooth that needs to move backwards. However on the internet it says everywhere many months, so I wondered if my dentist is correct?
Generally, thats for people with many teeth and bigger movements. People rarely take 6-7 weeks for an Invisalign treatment because that doesn’t cause much change. You either only need a small adjustment or you misheard.
@@jeffreychen7621 he said 6 weeks because its only one tooth that needs to move back a little
Yeah. I imagine a dentist’s direct word to you is more reliable than the Internet.
How much does this treatment cost for you??
@@joycee4721 mine was fully covered by insurance.
Will you need retainers for life if treated with braces?
Yes
Are they less expensive then fixed braces??
no but definitely worth it
night time for a life time ...😊...
Tray 1 today
Can I sleep with my invisible aligners on ?
Doc, how much and how long to use the invisalign?
I’m not a doc but it’s different for everyone depending on your teeth so you need to ask your orthodontist
2-3k
you're only supposed to take them out to eat so 20-22 hrs a day with them on
Depends where you are. Mine will be $6k
im paying $2100 out of pocket. Insurance covers $2000, I live in los angeles
Wait a minute are the retainers the one's in the bag
Can i put it on my own?
And without pimples?
Супер
İ am still using invisalign and ı am so angry because ı used to use 27 but they send 23 more and my dentist Said they spoused to send 10 or 9
Im on my first tray and it’s painful
Can anyone with crooked teeth use Invisaligners?
Won't your teeth stay loose for the rest of your life? Once you remove the retainer?
I think so...... and with braces
Your teeth always shift, so if you stop wearing your retainer, your teeth won't stay in that new position.
@@BassGal92 What do you mean always? Even now? My dentist said my teeth are always shifting even if I never wore braces. Found it hard to believe...
No. When they stop moving they set in place, but during this time they want to go back which is why you need the retainer, especially right after treatment is done. My teeth were not very loose when they were moving and they are rock solid now that they stopped.
@@jaek_898 So do you think, the longer the retainer is in place, the stronger your teeth will stay and won't move?
How frequently do we have to visit the doctor once the treatment starts?
Depends, I just started my treatment. My next visit is in 2 months.
The amount of times my dog chewed up my trays is crazy
is it available in india ?
Yess
Just as a good dentist
