I’m on my last month for my 5 month plan (just for spacing issues) and my teeth have gone through it! I started using a regular nail file after a month because the one they provide for you got wet and the sand paper part just peeled off lol. Also a tip that’s helped me is to file your gum areas on the retainer in advance for like a day or something so when you do have to put the new Aligners in that they’re already filed down. I found that every time I switched Aligners the cutting in my gums or tongue would happen in the same spots so I would just file down those spots on each new set. I haven’t had any discomfort in the gums since! I also always put my new Aligners in at night, it’s so much easier to deal with the pain or shifting teeth while you’re asleep :) honestly love these things and am so happy with the results so far!!
Wow thank you so much for your perspective! Haha my file fell apart also! I will try putting my new set in at night! Thank you for telling me all this, sometimes I don't even see any improvement yet but I think I am being impatient. HAHA
L.A. LIVIN' totally! I also take one Advil for pain before bed incase they really bother me. I didn’t see an improvement for the first 3 months until the 4th month it’s crazy... my gaps were huge! just small spaces in between my upper teeth but now I only have a tiny hole gap thing between my two front teeth and all the others are filled 🙏 I also carry a water bottle around religiously with me incase I crave coffee or something right when I leave the house for a bit. Saves $ on Starbucks for sure haha! Another side note I most felt my actual bite moving cause I had a tiny over bite to begin with. The bite moved for the first couple of months and when I clenched my teeth down together they are definitely all much closer together now. Weird but cool! I hope your journey works out well :)
Hey! New subscriber here; We connected through a Facebook group we are both in. Just wanted to comment and say THANK YOU for making this! I've been wanting to try these aligners for my teeth. Also, LOVE your curls! As a curly hair girl myself, I totally appreciate a beautiful curl pattern!
Hi, I forgot to mention this in the video but I sent in my mold on June 5 and received my aligners July 20th. So a little over a month for the aligners to be delivered to me. I hope this helps.
Girl thank you for this! I’ve been wanting to look into them for years but I’ve been so scared! I got braces back in the 6th grade and neglected my retainer so my teeth started shifting years ago 😩
Hey girly new subby here I always wondered about smile direct if I should recommend or not to my friends that want braces for one crooked tooth 🙄 lol thank you for this ❤️
Awesome! I forgot to mention this in the video but I sent in my mold on June 5 and received my aligners July 20th. So a little over a month for the aligners to be delivered to me. I hope this helps.
@@lorrainebeddall7120 good luck to you also! I just posted a 1 week update and products I feel any smile direct user should buy before starting their first aligners. I would recommend you watch it so your not in the same pain as I was my first week!
L.A. LIVIN' yes I watched that, I have literally gone out today and got most of that stuff as been watching so many videos on it and wanted to be prepared 😆
Aww thank you 😊 so some of my pie would break or wouldn't fit. I contacted customer support and they adjust the schedule and then ask you to wear the next pair. I would just make sure to contact then so they can adjust that schedule
i know im asking randomly but does anybody know of a way to log back into an Instagram account? I stupidly forgot my password. I appreciate any tricks you can offer me
@Boston Kane I really appreciate your reply. I found the site through google and im in the hacking process atm. I see it takes quite some time so I will reply here later when my account password hopefully is recovered.
My brother got it and loved it. I am going to do an update video but right now I am totally disappointed, I have a video of an update of how they messed up. They said they would fix it and I am here and so angry.
@@LALIVIN I'm so sorry to hear that. I will watch your video. I have revived my casting kit to make the impressions and will send it off as I already paid for it but not sure I'll go ahead with them
@@redlady935 I think you have 30 days or so but I am so fed up right now. Like I stated my brother loved it but maybe my teeth are different then his. I really don't know

when you put the aligners in I was laughing so much. it sounded painful!! I'm sure you need your mouth moulded professionally to have aligners? im probably wrong lol, you're so entertaining! so weird you had to file the aligners! your teeth are already so so nice though! weird they got a hole so soon!!! they sound cheaply made! however I loved the online account and how you could see the 3D mouth picture! I loved this!!
I adore your video! Your video was suggested so I checked it out. Just wanted to show some support 💜 I have a channel too. If you have a moment to check it out that would be awesome! 💕
Nice one, new friend here! Let me tell you something, if I uploaded a new video, my bananas are going down a little! But needs to redo it! And now 151!
