Carinn x Invisalign: 10 Months Teeth Progress (End of Invisalign 1.0 Treatment)

In a blink of an eye, I've been on my Invisalign treatment for 10 months now (a year, if you include the waiting process for the ClinCheck and mould to arrive). It's been nothing but a comfortable experience so far and I'm happy to see my confidence increase more and more as time goes by. I might sound quite conceited for saying this, but for people who know me, I never used to smile with my teeth showing because I was conscious about how my teeth looked. It's not the straight, pearly whites that most lucky people are blessed with. But I'm glad that I'm more confident smiling in photos now! I love smiling, looking "cool" doesn't suit me that well.
