So far so good as I continue my Invisalign journey with Hoffman Orthodontics!
I thought I was lucky as a kid who never had to have braces, but my teeth got the last laugh as decades later, I find myself needing some minor corrective measures to get things back to normal.
I had Invisalign consults before, and it seems (relatively) easy enough; depending on severity, you get your teeth scanned, receive "invisible" aligners and keep them in for 21+ hours a day. For some, it's months, others it's years. I'm on a 12-16 month timeline, and that's likely overshooting it a bit.
This group seemed very professional and on the ball, which is pretty important when taking something like this on. I wasn't about to try the mail-order version, I wanted real docs and real appointments.
Speaking of, there is an option between an app to follow progress, or in-person visits. I think both should be available, but as they have it set up, you choose either/or. I chose the appointments and it's been good so far, about four months in.
As for Invisalign itself, one's mileage may vary but I don't find it annoying at all. Sure I was a bit lispy for a day or two, or sometimes my head aches from a tray change, but it's a very small price to pay for some pretty remarkable technology.
I've still got a long road ahead of me with it, but I'm glad I'm rolling with Hoffman and find them all to be professional, friendly, and trustworthy. read more
