I've come to realize everyone is right, dealing with invisalign get's easier everyday. It's slowly becoming a part of my life. Yes brushing my teeth takes more time in the morning, becuase I have to actually brush my liners as well but I'm getting used to it. Yes it is annoying brushing my teeth EVERY TIME I eat, but to look at it in a positive light, I have AWESOME oral hygeine! Is it awkward when I'm brushing my teeth in a public bathroom? Yes. Do people stare at me weird when I take my liners out? Yes. But oh well, it's something I have to do and I am slowly getting used to it.
I've read so much that I can basically kiss my social life goodbye, and any romantic life. But I have definitely proved that wrong in just 4 days of inviaslign. I've gone out, talked and met new people with out them noticing. Going out to dinner is different because I have to take my liners out and brush my teeth afterwards, but I can still enjoy a nice glass of wine with my dinner while my liners are out. Alcohol while the liners are in? I tend to stick to Vodka & Water. I ALWAYS make sure I brush my teeth as soon as I get home so I don't have any Vodka or sugar sitting on them, but no staining! And yes, the biggest question.. Kissing. It is definitely possibly to kiss someone with this in. It kind of feels like you are 12 years old again, kissing someone for the first time ever, but you learn to manage!
I am not going to let this own or take over my life, I am going to own it. It's going to be a long process, and it's definitely life changing but I know, in a year when I have that beautiful smile I have always longed for, it will all be worth it!
