#biteproblems

Think about two real-life women who get Invisalign at the same time. They have issues with their teeth that are fairly similar— some crookedness, minor bite problems. They are using the same product, purchased at the same time, and their treatment plans look very much alike. Yet they get two very different results from the treatment. Find out why Invisalign works for some people and not others.

Two Invisalign Cases

The first woman, Mrs. A, wears her Invisalign trays all day and all night. She only takes them out for half an hour or forty-five minutes each time she eats a meal. She brushes her teeth and flosses after eating, before re-inserting the trays.

The second woman, Mrs. B, keeps losing her Invisalign tray. She takes it out, sets it down, and then can’t remember where she put it. Sometimes days go by before she finds the tray again. A couple of times, she loses the tray entirely and has to go back to her dentist for another one. When she does have a tray on hand, she does not always wear it, even if she isn’t eating a meal.

Positive Results Vs. Poor Results

After a few months, the two women compare results. Mrs. A, who wears her trays all the time, is noticing significant changes in her teeth. They are visibly straighter, and her smile appears far more attractive than before she started the treatment. She has gone through seven trays, seven different phases of treatment, and she has just three more to go in order to reach her goal. Mrs. B, however, is seeing no results. Her teeth are just as crooked as ever, and she is still on her very first tray.

Consistency Yields Progress

What’s the difference between these two women? Consistency. One of them follows the directions of her dentist, using the Invisalign trays as recommended. She is dedicated to seeing change, so she takes action and follows through, even when it isn’t convenient or comfortable. In contrast, her friend Mrs. B is haphazard in her habits. She doesn’t follow the instructions given by her Invisalign provider. She has no plan or schedule for wearing her tray, and she hasn’t designated a spot to keep the tray so she doesn’t lose it again.
