Tray # 4

Hello,
I have been wearing my set # 4 for a week now and it has been exactly the same as # 3, not feeling very tight, not difficult to take off etc..... I don't know whether I am just so used to them now or trays really do vary depending on which teeth are moving?
I am pleased to report I no longer use a rubber glove to take them off anymore and can whip them out pretty quickly with no issues. I am so used to them now that I forget I am wearing them. Its been 7 weeks now since I started treatment and the time has just flown by!
One thing to note during my previous set (tray # 3) is that 3 times I cut myself with them..... back inner cheek, inner lip and tongue!!!! Each of those times it was while inserting them back in, its quite easy for these trays to nip parts of your mouth, so I am a bit more careful putting them back in now :)
Still not really noticing any changes (except slight movement with my 2 front teeth which I noticed from tray # 3), so am really hoping to see some more noticable movement soon. I still keep comparing my 1st set with future trays (still sealed in their little plastic bags) and am always amazed at how my teeth will look at the end of treatment so that keeps me motivated.
