Last night was the weirdest thing. Whenever I have to go to my ortho., I try to schedule the appointments so that they fall on the Wednesdays that I need to change trays. That way, I can get the next set of trays on time and don't have to wait to start my next tray. I was originally supposed to change my trays next Wednesday, but because of how the weeks fell, I wasn't able to get in next week. So, I scheduled my appointment early for this week. I figured that I'd get the next batch of trays, and then I could swap them out next week on schedule.
Instead, she did the IPR stuff that she needed to, and then snapped in the next set of trays. Apparently because she did the IPR and created the spaces, I needed the next aligner that's designed to accomodate the gaps. So, I basically skipped a week of tray 8 and moved right into tray 9. I'm not complaining since it doesn't really hurt any more than normal, and it already feels like my teeth have largely moved into their new spots. Yay for getting done a whole week earlier!
In other news, the new gaps are between all of my front, top teeth. I think that they're REALLY noticeable. I asked one of my coworkers though, and he swears that it looks fine. Of course, I think he knows better than to answer those type of questions negatively. :) Here's hoping though. I have a first date next week, and I'm crossing my fingers on this one.
