5 Days in!

Okay just an update.
It has been 5 days since I've had my first tray in. I haven't told any family or friends mostly because I want to see if anyone notices them. Maybe they have but don't want to be all up on my business so haven't commented on it...time will tell I guess.

I wanted to note that the aligners feel very "comformed" to my teeth right now. I'm not sure if my teeth have moved slightly or if the aligners have bended to better fit my teeth (hopefully it's the former) but I do not feel the tension I used to feel when I first got them. The first couple of days were the most uncomfortable. This was especially true when I took the aligners out for eating. The first minute after taking them out is the only time I every felt any real discomfort. Having them on was more comfortable than having them out.

Now, I can pop them in and out and I don't feel a thing. There is still very slight tension in my lower left side but not any where close to what it was.

In any case, I thought I should probably post some "before" pictures just so I have a reference for when I'm done with this treatment. I have never actually paid this close of attention to my teeth before but taking these pics has made me realize that addressing this has been long overdue. I'm glad I finally took the initiative.
Here's my current retarded smile haha. 

Eeeee

What a beautiful sight. 
As you can see, the teeth are pretty healthy otherwise. It's just the fucking gaps X


 Damn I feel like I'm a bat. 
Lower teeth
