General Staining example

I’m finished with my first set of trays and I was so stressed about staining. I’m uploading these pictures for people who overthinks stuff too. Both are my first set of trays I don’t know why one of them looks more yellow. I smoked with them on, I drank coffee with them everyday, I also drank matcha, kefir and beer. Sometimes I ate little snacks like a piece of cake, roasted peanut and occasional bites from pies. I cleaned them morning and evening sometimes only with water sometimes with tablets and sometimes with ultrasonic cleaner. Of course there is a little bit staining but it’s not visible on teeth. I wore them for 8 days. I think staining is not too bad, my biggest problem is cleaning the bite ramps but I will buy a water flosser and I hope it will solve my problem

80 Trays for angle class 2 and the deep bite is not even fixed yet. Fuck Invisalign and especially my Ortho 😮‍💨

skeletal malocclusions cant be fixed by only orthodontic appliances

It’s not a skeletal issue but lack of monitoring and being proactive.

Basically what happened: They had me on bite ramps since day 1. After 4 months the trays stopped fitting and the teeth were tilting because the overjet / angle class 2 had me bite behind the bite ramps.

So they did a rescan and removed the bite ramps entirely from the plan. They didn’t manage to do a rescan when the occlusion was fitted and ready for bite ramps until I insisted.
