Well...this was one of the biggest decisions I have made. I have hated the way my teeth have looked since I was 13 yrs old. My one front tooth is half over on my other front tooth. Over the years I wished I could get braces but could not afford them. I knew they came out with
Invisalign but again I could not afford them either. It really affects my self confidence in myself. It is something I think about all the time. Well I have really been looking into
Invisalign for the last couple of years and thinking about how I can swing this. My sister-in-law got
Invisalign on my nephew
Justin and I talked to him over the summer and I
didn't even know he had them on. It was crazy. Well I just happened to talk to Chris (sister-in-law) last week and was talking about how I wanted to get the
Invisalign and she said to go to the dentist she took Justin too. She said they really work with people on payments and they are awesome. I started researching the dentist and saw that he has been on the news several times for all the good deeds he does and that people love him. He has a great way with people and he
doesnt try to sell products to you. He really cares.
So I made an appt and I went in to see him. It was a really nice place. I love that in every chair you sit in you have a personal tv and remote to watch whatever you want while you are in your dental chair. It hovers over you so while you are getting a cleaning, filling or whatever you can watch your favorite shows. Wow!!! They really want to put people at ease. They gave me a lot of info but I told them I already have seen many dentists and have already had any questions I ever had answered. My only issue was financing. Well they made it work for me. With my flex pay at work (which I can use for braces and no one ever told me that) I will only have to pay out of pocket 200.00. I was so shocked. They said I did not have to pay the 200.00 up front either...I can pay 25.00 every time I came to pay that. I could not believe this. I almost cried. It is something that I have wanted to do for as long as I could remember. So I decided not to waste one more single day...I said lets do it!!
They took my impressions and took the xrays and photos and that was it. I go back in Dec 6th to get my first set of trays. I am so excited. I will document my progress as I go along.
It was a big day for me and I am glad that I did it for myself.
