Gross!
There's a guy I work with who is absolutely disgusting. I don't think he ever flossed a day in his life...there's so much tartar caked up along his gumline, and his breath REEKS. There's no mistaking the smell of someone's breath who doesn't floss...ugh. Pretty bad considering he's supposed to be representing health and wellness. |

it could just mean he hardly brushes! I have close to none on my teeth and I brush my teeth 3 times a day, no flossing
regular dental cleaning also helps |

anyone tried invisiline?
Wondering if the outcome is just as good as braces. |

lol thats what I first thought of too. Invisalign does work. But it may not work for you. The dentist I work for is not an orthodontist but is certified in Invisalign. He charges the same price for the invisalign at regular braces. Usually the cost is 1000-2000+ more than traditional braces. Invisalign works to straighten the teeth but not fixing the patient's bite. Your teeth will still hurt from being moved, but you will not have the sores in your cheeks that accompany brackets. These sores are usually only present for the first 10 or so days. After that the sores that you get in your cheeks are about the same as what you get right now. (assuming the doctor properly trims the wires) You will need to have all of your adult teeth in your mouth fully erupted to have invisalign. I have seen 9 yr olds with all adult teeth and 15 yr olds with some remaining baby teeth. Traditional braces are kind of an "in" fad right now - More Bling! I am an adult currently in braces, and I chose traditional braces, because Invisalign wouldn't correct what I wanted corrected - my bite. If you are going to take the time and spend the money I suggest you go with traditional braces and get everything fixed.

I was thinking of getting them. Well, still am.
I have a friend/co-worker who currently is halfway done and so far no complaints at all! She loves them.
The only time that there is discomfort is when you have to put a new mold on, but only for a few days and then you just get use to wearing them.

$700 per tooth actually (more if you go to dentists with the full page ads and TV commercials). |
Oh yeah its $1000 a tooth for the good ones...
Just kidding...I guess prices vary depending on where you go. My bro in law paid 1000 each but he got all of his done. Rich prick. |
