invisalign day 10

Well to update everyone on my progress. The pain is all completely gone. I went to my dentist and he filed back the part that was hurting me and it’s been fine since. He also put the attachment back on, well, actually two. I noticed the day before that there was a bump on the aligner that didn’t have a bump on my tooth. I had the attachments put on at 8am and at noon when I took the aligners off the same one popped off. UGH! I called my dentist back right away but he is booked solid until NEXT saturday. He wants me to wear my aligner until he can put the attachment back on so I will wear this one, my first one, for an extra two days.
As luck would have it the other night I was looking at my teeth with the aligners in and something didn’t look right. So I look at the aligner and sure enough there are two spots on the aligner with bumps that don’t have matching attachments on the teeth. I have NO idea when these would have even come off. So in a week when I see my dentist AGAIN I will point them out and have them fixed.
For the most part I am adjusting well. I have cut out all snacks, it is just not worth the trouble of taking the aligners out eating a snack then having to brush my teeth and the aligners. The aligners are comfortable. My biggest issue is not being able to bite my nails!!!!
