So I am on week 2 of this tray. Wednesday would be the day I go to get my new trays (after forgetting one day a few months ago, my day was originally a Tuesday). However, the doctor leaves early on Wednesdays and at the time I scheduled the appointment, I needed a later time. So Thursday will be the day I go in. Since last time my trays hurt so bad, I'm actually thankful to be a day behind in case they hurt again. Because this way my teeth should be really set in these trays. They certainly feel comfortable and like they fit perfect now so I'm not anticipating any trouble. But you never know.
My retainers feel super duper dirty right now. I really need to take better care of them. I haven't flossed a whole lot later, either. But I seriously have had zero time. I've made a big life change, or I should say career change, which I'm hoping will lead to a more flexible schedule. I am attempting the start of many changes in my life. So straight teeth will be the first real change of the series. I'm excited to go to my appointment. I'm pretty sure I don't have much longer left. I can really see there isn't much more movement needed. I have had several moments recently where it was awkward to take my retainers out, but really they feel like a part of me now. It will be so weird to NOT have them in. But I think I still will wear them at night. I'm fairly certain that's the procedure. And I don't mind that. It has been an intense, yet not too hard journey. Hard to explain how it was easy and difficult at the same time. But I will not allow my teeth to go back. I have heard many people who didn't take care of their teeth after treatment for braces and decided not to wear their retainers and their teeth started shifting back. NO way, Jose! I didn't go through this time and money for nothing. And I'm very pleased thus far :)
