Well, I actually just walked in the door from my latest orthodontist appt. and we discussed exactly this issue. I wear my trays religiously, and NEVER cheat on wear time. If anything, I wear them more than the 22 hours per day. My trays are to be worn for 10 days, and when I asked what the difference between my rotation time and that of others, he explained that when he creates the treatment plan, he plans smaller movement increments based on 220 hours of wear, 10 day rotations, and more trays. He is very experienced, very helpful and I have complete faith that this is the right treatment for me
Oh, and he was really interested when I told him about the various forums I belong to, and has asked me to email him the links - so we just might see him here! How cool is that?
Anyone else hear of 10 days rather than 14?
