Not much to report. I switched to the 3rd set of uppers and lowers on Thursday night. There were really tight at first, which is to be expected. What's amazing is that they are easier to remove that the first 2 pairs. I can see my left canine is definitely less protruding.
I've learned that it's best to place the aligners in a small glass of water with a dash of Milton Sterilizing fluid (stuff for cleaning babies' bottles) this stops them getting the 'dog breath' smell from oxidizing with yukky saliva on them, yeah gross I know but it's true. Try running your finger around your gums and sniffing it 4 hours after you've brushed your teeth. You get the picture.
Also since learning the sterilizing fluid trick, I've noticed the aligners don't discolour now, which is great.
Yesterday I was at Charing Cross Station and I saw a guy about my age wearing train-track braces. I thought smugly to myself that he should have got Invisaligns because no one has noticed unless I've told them.
Hopefully I'll get the wide mouth pics from my ortho soon to post.
