Invisalign Impression

I've always had crowded teeth since I was a teen and I've always wanted to fix it. I have decided to invest in Invisalign to correct my smile and I am pretty excited for what's about to come. Although the procedure is pricey, especially since I am in the NYC area, I think it is worth it and I hope that I will achieve excellent results. I had my impressions taken last week and it wasn't as bad as what I've read on other blogs and forums. It's basically a type of putty that becomes rubbery after it placed in your mouth for a few minutes. It creates a suction within your mouth which makes it a little difficult to remove, but painless nonetheless. I'd say I have a high tolerance for pain so your experience will vary. My orthodontist expects the clincheck within a few weeks so I have to patiently wait for the first aligners to arrive. The anticipation is killing me and time seems to be slowing down.

I hope this blog will provide useful information for others interested in Invisalign and I shall continue to chronicle my invisalign journey.
