    This dentist is very impressive. I hope mine knows as much as she does. Her patient s have the best chance of success with all the knowledge sh has. There is so much more to these aligned than I had any idea of. So I’m having a little trouble being optimistic at this point. It’s a very slow process.

    Please yes! Another video on dark triangles or the little gap between the front two teeth. I’ve notified more space/gaps in my teeth since starting treatment. I thought the only way to fix it would be composite bonding :/

    IPR is a way to do it. They shave in between your teeth to make space and close that small space.

    I did everything by the book and then some. I am still in refinement phase after 11 months because of scheduling delays (dentist delays & office closed) along with inaccurate movement predictions… Needless to say, I’m loving my results 💗💗💗

    I have a question, if you order 3 power or c-chain trays, and you order optional trays with ipr at the end of treatment to combat black triangles, what is the order of the trays? chain first or ipr first? What if you opt out of either, but you want to do the other treatment. wouldnt the order of the trays decide which you have to opt out of first? with other words: How is this possible if you want two seperate options in the end of the plan? sorry if my question is unclear

    My dentist told me from the beginning we would do new impressions every 10 trays (total trays 27) and so far I in fact did my new impressions after tray 10. May this be helpful to avoid refinements at the end of process or is this normal procedure and I will still need refinements at the end?

    I was suppose to change trays today 24/30 and my ortho was like let's do refinement because my trays altered my bite so much to where I have no contact on the left side when I bite how do you fix this? Will my teeth be pulled up?

    I have 5 crowns and the attachments wouldn't stick to those teeth even with the advanced adhesive, so I'm on the first round of refinements. Unfortunately, buttons were called for on my refinements and guess where they were supposed to go? My teeth are looking pretty good after 24 trays (I have 14 to go), but I'm thinking I'll have to settle for a slightly less than optimal result due to this challenge.

    IPR polishes the PART of the teeth that are touching and creates a uniformed space that can be closed up orthodontically.

    @@uvsarah IPR = Inter-Proximal REDUCTION. meaning they SHAVE DOWN the sides of your teeth, removing ENAMEL from the sides, so that the teeth can be moved closer together. Removing enamel from the sides to achieve this seems a bit more than “polishing”.

    Usually after a good cleaning, the gums are less inflamed and swollen and they shrink to normal healthier size. Also the tartar (white in color) is removed, so you’re likely seeing the gaps that were present but you weren’t necessarily aware of prior to the cleaning. Talk to your dentist about these dark triangles at the gum line.

    I feel uncomfortable with IPR, because you get enamels thinned. If done correctly, it might not influence on your dental health, but you can't guarantee it's done correctly.

    Thanks for sharing your thoughts. You’re right that certain issues can occur when done incorrectly. Hand IPR (strips, not rotary) may be a safe choice to consider if your doctor is willing to do it.

    Do you mean going back in numerical order? Sometimes patients are asked to go back 1-4 aligners if their teeth are not tracking as planned. Talk to your treating orthodontist before going backwards though.
