Invisalign Braces Update: Half way there

Back in September, Nick started the process of straightening his teeth with Invisalign Teen Braces. Because of the severity of Nick’s crooked teeth, the orthodontist’s plan was 52 trays, making it about 2 years until he is done. This past week, Nick started tray number 27, so he’s about half way there. I thought it would be good to show you the progress he has made so far.

See that? No teeth showing on his smile…I don’t have a single picture with his teeth showing, we are hoping to change all that.

I was able to catch him during a short afternoon at home {you know teens} and grabbed a few pictures, forcing him to smile for me. This picture is without the Invisalign Braces in. You can see over to the left side {his right} where they removed a tooth to force another tooth that had not ever come in, down. It’s coming in nicely, and the Invisalign Braces are doing that.

But you see…with the braces in, you are hardly see the hole or even really tell that he has braces. The Invisalign have been great, and Nick even said to me “I’m so happy with the results so far, Mom. I’m actually a little surprised at how well they are working, I didn’t know what to expect.”
