Whoo hoo, the dentist removed the six spots that had been welded onto my bottom teeth last June. That means we're getting into the home stretch of the Invisalign process. I just got the upper and lower retainers tonight. Have to wear 'em for the next three months to stabilize everything, and also to move the teeth a bit more towards ideal positioning (mostly the lower jaw).
Then it's only at night from that point forward! Yay!

I finally got braces around my 40th birthday (several years ago now), and since they've been off I have been faithful about wearing my retainers at night. Top is Invisalign, bottom is the wire and plastic kind. I opted not to have any teeth removed to correct my overbite. I was happy enough to have them straight (especially the bottom) and there were enough complications with another tooth, trips to the oral surgeon, etc. to last me a lifetime. Now with proper hygiene I should be in fine shape. I hope all goes well with yours too!
