saw the dentist yesterday to get my refinement trays..top is about done and that was my major issue..they still look ' off ' due to the speed bumps still being there but over all looking good.

for the bottom? 10 sets

so 20 weeks worth..what kinda pisses me off is insivalign had me down for 22 upper and 11 lower to start- why not just 22 and 22 to begin with?

So no refinement for the top? I can relate to your situation because my plan included 18 top and 11 bottom. Both my top and bottom still need a lot of work, but the bottom does more so. I think they just make it so that your teeth will actually be where you want them after your two refinements so you feel like you're getting something free....or it's an opportunity to make more money for the doctors who charge for it. I'm not sure, but I think it's a huge conspiracy

ha! maybe! nope- nothing more for the top exept to get the damn speed bumps off..and on top of the 10 more trays i got another speed bump on the bottom which makes a total of 4..the funny thing is, i didnt think i needed/ wanted any work on the bottom. i just looked at some pics i took day one- wow, i was wrong.
