At the first appointment we did some slenderizing of the upper teeth (roughly 0.4mm between each one) to help alleviate the crowding and allow for tooth movement. We also placed his attachments on some of his teeth. The attachments are made of clear filling material and give the aligner something to grab onto for more difficult cases.
He started wearing his first set of aligners. Each aligner is typically worn for 2weeks. We also gave him some whitening gel and his second set of aligners and plan to see him in a month.
