It's been a little while since I last wrote a post because I haven't really had anything else to say or update on as its all been going pretty smoothly. I went to the dentist on Tuesday as I had gone through all my trays he had given me and was due my next few. He gave me the best news ever!

Invisalign have changed the time scales now for wearing the aligners. So instead of wearing each one for 2 weeks, you now only have to wear them for 1! This means that I will be done by the beginning of September instead of like December/January! I am literally so excited as I am going to be bridesmaid for my friend and I really didn't want my teeth to look disgusting in the pictures. I know its not about me at all but still, no one wants to look back at awful pictures of themselves.

The dentist said they had done extensive research and patients teeth were moving in the first few days of a new set and a week was enough for the change as nothing more was really happening on the second week.

I am now on day 4 of my 6th set of 20 overall. I got a bit cocky and told the dentist I hadn't really had much pain at all and I was doing fine. Tray 6 though has been a little cowbag! Totally jinxed myself. Its starting to ease as the week goes on but its been pretty sore the last few days. That'll teach me! To be fair I had my trays out for too long yesterday and they were so tight when I put them back in so that was my own fault.

I have to go back in 4 weeks to get my next 4 trays. I am literally in and out of the chair so quick its unreal. I guess thats a good thing and everything is going ok and looking good. That or he just wants me out of there!
