Hi all

Well I've had my clinicheck today and I've got to say i'm gutted about the amount of attatchments but hey hum.

My ortho says he wants me to start whitening straight away so that the attatchments will be white and i'll have a nice white smile (I don't see how it will be nice with crooked teeth and speed bumps).

Anyone else do it before treatment?
Won't I have marks on my teeth when the attatchmeents get taken of in a years time.

Hi there,
I bleached at the beginning and it has worked out great. I'm really glad I did it. I have a blog that explains what I did with pictures, feel free to take a look

Wow, I asked my guy and he said, invisalign first, then we whiten, otherwise it's not as effective!!!! And he's a cosmetic dentistry specialist!
Now I wish I had done something, 10 months minimum of liners is a long time to wait....
