I am on second set of trays out of 7-top and 10-bottom. I had slight crowding. My ortho filed my teeth today to make space for the first time and I think he over did it. It scares me every time I look in the mirror. Has anyone else been concerned by the space their Dr. made? Please tell me that I am worried for nothing.

You are not alone!! I was so scared when my ortho did my filing - especially between my front bottom two teeth. I nearly died when I saw the space and couldn't wait for it to close - which it eventually did. Orthos are very careful and follow the procedures, but it is definitely scary as filing those teeth away just makes anyone cringe!

just wondered because u only have a small number of trays compared to me (47 upper 36 lowers) did you only pay a small amount of money or is it full price no matter how many trays you have i dont have to have my teeth shaved because iv gone down the extraction route.

I think the cost was $5,600.
