[quote=Anonymous]I'm considering Invisalign to straighten my jumbled front lower teeth. I've talked to my dentist and am going to have a consult with an orthodontist, but I am also curious about the day-to-day details of using this method, especially while working. Does it take long to adjust to speaking with the aligners in? I'm starting a new job soon, so I'd hate to show up as a lisping or spitting dork. Do people tend to notice you're wearing the aligners? Do you feel like it affected your professional appearance? How hard was it adjust to not eating/drinking anything at all without first taking out the aligners and then brushing? I usually do best when I eat small frequent meals and I like to sip tea while I work, but I don't think I'm going to want to brush my teeth four times a day while at the office... Any other practical details and adjustments you had to make? (I couldn't decide if this was more medical or more appearance-related, so I went with Off-Topic...)[/quote]
