One final tray to go!

15 06 2009

So tonight I’m switching to my final aligner on the bottom, My teeth are not to dissimilar from the pictures below in a previous post, so I wont post any more up yet – however I will be posting my final before and after in the next two weeks. This will also then serve to be my before – middle – after once I’ve finished refinements.

I have been tracking a lot of other blogs recently, and have updated my blogs list at the top so make sure you check them out – but for me, I will be back in a couple of weeks after I’ve been back to the dentist on my final review – the appointment is on the 2nd July, so I will make sure I get some pictures up the night before.

Here’s to finally getting to the end of the initial treatment, and I’m looking forward to getting to the next stage of refinements

Thanks for reading
~Adam

Thanks Liz – you’re right it has gone so fast, and so much has happened in my life since then too – it’s like a completely different me! People have noticed how much I’m smiling in photo’s, how happier I seem as a person, it really is the best investment I could have made and I’m so pleased with how it is going :)

Hello Adam,

I have to thank you so much, because you have been an inspiration. The way your teeth used to look, is the way my teeth look like now. I have never liked photos because, you have to smile in photos and I really disliked showing these crooked teeth.

My teeth have always been the feature I have disliked and because of financial reasons, I was not able to get regular braces. I would have not mind at all if I would have gotten metal braces during my teen yrs, but I am an adult now, I am 26yrs old and my current boss offered to help me pay for braces, because she says I am beautiful girl who deserves to have beautiful teeth.

My worry was that she was talking about metal braces, in the moment she mentioned the metal braces, I didn’t even think about invisalign, because 6 yrs ago I went for a free consultation and the dentist said I didn’t qualify. So…in that moment Invisalign & the dentist broke my heart!

After the conversation with my boss, I started doing research and once more I ran into invisalign websites, before and after photos, but it frustrated me that I didn’t see a single example of my teeth. I was losing hope, but when I saw you and that your case qualified, made me sooooo happy because I automatically thought, if the dentist said yes to his case, then I have a good chance I can get invisalign! and I was sure that after all these yrs Invisalign must have advanced.

Yesterday I went on my free consultation and while was waiting for the dentist, I thought “if Adam has them I can get them too!” Thank goodness, the dentist said I do qualify! My invisalign journey will start in 2 weeks.

Thank you Adam for creating you blog and posting your photos, because your example inspired me to go for Invisalign again!

Wow – Thank you. It’s nice to know what I’ve done has helped you in your decision to go for Invisalign too. I have to say it has been a life changing experience for me so far – although coming up to the 9 month mark now I’ve grown in confidence so much, and pretty much every photo of me now has me smiling in it, which would never have been the case if I didn’t go for the braces.

I really hope you achieve the results you deserve, and if you’re tracking your progress via a blog or something similar I would love to hear about how you’re getting on.

All the best and I hope everything works out for you.

Adam.

thx for your blog. it really helped me in my decision to try invisalign myself. the opinion of real users are so much better than the marketing brochures from invisalign…
