✨ 6 months into his Invisalign journey and Charlie is all smiles! 😁

Hi, Charlie. Who are you?

I’m Charlie. [laughter]

Well, I’m the English translator. When you come to Oaks, I’ll be there to translate for you.

Why did you start Invisalign?

Especially my upper teeth were crooked, two of them. And then my lower teeth, originally I missed two teeth. So there are some gaps.

So, for the upper, I had some crowding, and for the lower, I had some gaps. The doctor told me that I have a deep bite. It basically means my upper arch is covering my lower arch too much. So when I smile or bite, I don’t see the lower arch at all.

So that’s what you want to achieve with Invisalign.

Yeah, so that I can have a normal bite, which kind of releases all the jaw pain that I have.

So how’s your treatment going?

Actually, it’s going well. It’s been 6 months. The tilt and the crooked ones are getting more aligned now.

Nice.

And then the lower gaps are getting much better, too.

Yeah, I like it. Is there anything uncomfortable while using the Invisalign tray?

Not really. Uh, the only thing is I love coffee, but I’m not supposed to drink anything except water. So that would be a little uncomfortable. But other than that, uh, everything else is okay. It’s kind of easy. Whenever I eat, I just take them off and then I can eat, and then clean my teeth and put them back.

So you recommend it?

Oh, definitely.
