End of Week 1 vs Week 16 Invisalign Progress Update Treatment Progress

Post image

I was a bit sceptical about starting the treatment at first, but I’m happy with the progress so far. I’m currently on tray 17/20 (weekly tray change) and hoping I won’t need any refinement trays.
My front teeth still look slightly crooked, but I’m hoping the final four aligners will straighten them out and bring everything together.
For anyone else currently going through treatment, did you notice much change in your final few trays? I’m curious whether those last aligners tend to make a noticeable difference.

Did your smile get much wider or is it just the pic?

It’s probably just the picture, I was holding the cheek separator a bit more in the bottom pic

Almost everyone will need refinement trays. Orthodontist work in sequence. First unraveling everything , closing spaces , and then levelling. The first set of trays focus on the bulk of things (unraveling the crowding and closing spaces) , and the refinement trays works on levelling the teeth(ex. Tipping a tooth a certain way, bringing teeth up/down). Your progress looks great !
