What brings me here: I had braces as a teen, but my teeth have moved since then (I'm almost 40 now). My front teeth have been getting increasingly crowded, and I have one tooth that I affectionately call my snaggle tooth. It keeps moving further up & out, looking worse & worse. Was originally considering Invisalign, but I just don't think I'd be diligent enough to keep them in as much as you need to. Plus the hassle of removing them to eat/drink, especially in social situations. So the ortho said I was a candidate for Incognito and Incognito Lite. I opted for the 'Lite' mostly due to the cost. I was encouraged to see how quickly some people have seen results w/ these too.
So anyway, just wanted to introduce myself. I'm just beginning my braces journey & hope to post regular updates - and probably lots of questions!
. Everyone who's done this has said eating is a challenge, and they were right. Not just because teeth are sore, but also because my bottom teeth hit my top brackets first, so it's going to be tough to chew, even when I feel like it. Sticking to liquid meal supplements, smoothies, yogurt, egg salad, etc. for the next couple weeks. Sort of an involuntary diet to get ready for swimsuit season...
