Yes-My impressions were about 3 1/2 weeks ago. My ortho said to make an appnt for 6 weeks from that date, and they should be there. And I was told that if they came earlier I would get a call. Well, I am losing my patience quite honestly. I know it takes a few weeks and it is a precise process but t...

Hi all,

I went to the invisalign website and I got the headquarters phone number. Do you think if I call and give them my name/info they would be able to tell me if they sent out my aligners to my dentist?

To the last poster- you are so lucky! I have been waiting, and waiting and waiting for my aligners .....it has been WEEKS since my impressions, and it's another 3 weeks until my appointment to go back (when the aligners should be here) total of 6 weeks expected ....I am getting so restless!!!!!! The...

Thank you

Thanks for the positive words.
I wish it was 3 1/2 wks! They said they would call if they came in earlier but its just still a waiting game. A very annoying one! haha

It has been weeks since your impressions!? And you still have WEEKS to go until your appointment when the aligners are in? It is so hard to keep my patience =( I feel like I would have been far into treatment by now if only 6 -7 weeks wasnt wasted by! I understand they need to be made but it is just...

I got a slight chip in my tooth over the weekend. It was very tiny, but it was in the front so it was enough to bother me. I went to get it fixed on Monday and it looks normal. I think my dentist filed it a little and bonded it. I asked the dental assistant if it will affect the size of the invisali...

My ortho said that she could actually request to invisalign that attachments go on the side teeth (I guess if its possible in the particular case)

I am going there Monday to see what i can do. The only thing i signed was a receipt for the credit card payment. I didn't sign anything else. I didn't even see a breakdown of what charges are for what and so on.....I am going to demand it on Monday. Im sure me being there alone had something to do w...

Well yes, she did say the $4800 and I did ask if that was for express. She said full would be more...it wasnt until I got home that I REALLY started to think about it. I don't even know what was included in that price. I'm going to stop in and ask on monday. I was I could go today but they are close...

Ugh!!! This sucks. i feel like crap!
Anyway, I think I may actually stop in the office on Monday. This way I won't get a run around over the phone.
The office is close to me, and every time I go they are never super busy so it will be fine.

I actually asked today and she told me that she could request to the company not to have them put on my front teeth!

Hi all, Boy is my head pounding.... Well, this morning I went for my ortho consult. While I was there she told me I could get invisalign and that my teeth line up all nicely. I have one tooth that is crooked. The front one. Anyway, she goes "Wow I dont even have to explain it to you because you...

Thanks! I am jumping ahead of myself here, as I havnt even had my first ortho appnt yet, but...if all goes as planned and when the time comes, I sure hope if I do need one on my front tooth that they will put it on the back.

I have a question. I have seen a lot of pictures online of attachments on the side teeth.
Do they ever put them on FRONT teeth?

I hope not because my front tooth is the crooked one =(
