I have now finished my intended lot of treatment! Woohoo. However I have requested more trays as I had predicted I would. I am really happy with the results but would like a few more trays to just push back one of my front teeth a little more as there is a slight step on it, so to me you can see the thickness of the whole tooth rather than it laying flat like the other one. You would probably only notice if you looked really closely. It is a significant improvement than when I started but for how much I am paying I am looking to get them as perfect as possible!

Last week he took the attachments off and oh my god it feels amazing. I have got used to all the lumps and bumps and to run my tongue along them and it be all smooth now is so good. He took some more impressions (which was so gross, I forgot how uncomfortable they were) and is sending them off, along with more pictures of my new smile, to Invisalign to see if they can do any more. I am hopeful they will be able to. It is likely I will need more attachment put back on but this doesn't bother me in the slightest really as I know how the feel and look now.

I am having to continue wearing tray 20 until the new set of trays arrive. This one has been in a month now and its not the nicest but I am pretty on top of cleaning them so it's not too bad.

The first picture below is what my teeth looked like before I started Invisalign. I have the thickened cap thing on my tooth, so although they look bad, they didn't really show how bad my teeth were.
The second picture is how they actually were once the cap was removed - horrendous. And the third picture is how they look now with all the attachments removed. So as you can see its a huge improvement.

Pictures 4 and 5 below are before and afters of my bottom set.

My family have all commented on how I seem to smile a lot more broadly now and I do feel a lot more confident about smiling face on in photos.
