Back on track!

I started Invisalign to straighten my teeth over a year ago and went off track after a chest infection late last year/early this year (can't remember exactly.)

I'd been putting off going back for so long because I didn't think they'd let me continue after this long, plus there was a disagreement about money (which was all a misunderstanding).So I went today and started afresh and got back on track.

I only had to go back 2 aligners fortunately, so I'll be done in a few months.. yayyy.

I'm so happy I've done it. My teeth/smile are the one main thing I've never liked about myself and it stops me smiling and getting photos taken and stuff because I have crooked teeth and a very gummy smile.

So once the treatment is done and my teeth are straight they'll do "gingival recontouring" which is like, cutting the gum into shape to make it all look nice, coz at the moment I have what look like quite short teeth and my gums kinda go straight across, instead of up in an arch around each tooth. So this will fix that, then they also do a teeth whitening to complete it all and I'll be pretty and beautiful and smiling lots :)

Yay. Very happy.
