About
This is my journal of Invisalign treatment.
I decided to try Invisalign because I was beginning to become more and more self conscious of my imperfect teeth. I have to admit I am a little obsessed by other peoples teeth, I may have been brainwashed by glossy images of impractical white perfect teeth in the media but everyone has something they want to change! Moving to the US and recently getting married (extreme close ups!) only reinforced that opinion. In the US people seem to care more about their teeth and dental hygiene (seeing people brushing their teeth after lunch is not unusual here).
I’m an avid flosser and have tried teeth whitening treatments (including a Brite Smile treatment in Bangkok). Having brighter and cleaner teeth eased my concern with discolouration but I still craved a perfect arc of strong white teeth. I show my teeth when I smile, laugh and speak there is no hiding them.
I welcome any comments and other peoples experiences. I’ll take regular photographs to track the movement of my teeth, in just over a year I ’should’ have a great set of teeth! I hope it works!
