It has taken them so long because my pictures where never sent off to Invisalign and the dentist is saying there was a technical and broadband problem but i was informed by the dental nurse that they never send them off they are just trying to cover up there mistake after my numerous letters of complaints but at least am starting my process again finally :D

I have started my refinements a week ago and got 8 sets. Really excited ! My teeth look already pretty good. They are absolutely straight but need to be pushed back a little bit more.
Good luck to you! Hope you get your hollywood smile soon! How many sets did you get?

Hi Andrea26 I went on Tuesday and he said I have 18 refinements in total for the top (I didn’t get any for my bottom so I have to wear my last tray) he wasn’t sure why as he thinks I will be finished before then but at least I know its not that long off.

I am so excited now to have started my treatment after so long, I thought my teeth would be really uncomfortable but there fine so am really pleased. I go back on Tuesday to get my next tray and some shaving.

Good luck with yours, you will be finished before you know it, I cant wait to be happy with mine keep us posted and put some pictures on if you can :D
