I get it. I'm 40 and I have braces. I have to get jaw surgery to fix my bite. I was supposed to do it 25 years ago. I am paying for all this myself now. I always dreamed of having a lovely smile. Yours looks great.
So nice! I had the nicest smile and now I look like a tweaker. I’m 30 and have almost no upper teeth left because of ME, medication/dry mouth and stuff like that, the two last one just fell out of themselves and in 2016 they were fixed and fine and same in 2019, fine, now - ruined. From 2015-2016 I fixed sooo sooo much with a free dentist since I’m sick but not in this "county" here across country, so I need just fake teeth to chew
I’m a dental hygienist and it’s very heart warming hearing you say how much you appreciate and have learned about hygiene! Sometimes it can be tricky to convey its importance and actually have people practice it at home and spread the knowledge to kiddos and the public! You’re amazing and your videos helped me make it though hygiene school!!! 💗❤️
@@jordynmarie245 Fellow dental hygiene student from Israel !!! 😅🙋♀️🤗🥰😘❤ Her videos have a huge impact on me ... started dealing with Insomnia about a year and 3 months ago , just due to stress and ... life happening 😅 She's an angel ... 😇
It's not even just a matter of hygiene either. Many dental problems are remote weapon attacks. For years I took good care but then got threats of having my teeth destroyed and soon enough I started picking up new cavities. So annoying.
Your teeth look beautiful! Just got my Invisalign three days ago - not loving it right now. But good to see how beautiful yours turned out! Motivation.
Hang on sister! I've got braces six weeks ago, and first 5 days I was already considering taking them off! The pain and pressure was bad. But now, I don't feel a thing, some teeth are sensitive to touch but that's it. Braces made a HUGE difference already! It will get better I promise. 💕
I had braces for 2 years when I was a teenager and now have permanent retainers. It was a true struggle but I'm very grateful I had them. good teeth are essential
Everyone hold onto your Invisalign‘s because you might need them in the future like me. Five or six years ago I got them and even with permanent retainers in my mouth my teeth Still shift on and off so I occasionally pop the Invisalign’s back in my mouth and then my teeth go back to where they are supposed to be :) .
It’s crazy how important teeth are to your overall health, and yet you have to get a separate insurance plan for dental 🙄 I’ve been blessed enough where I’ve never needed braces or had many cavities, but dental hygiene is so so important!! You look amazing Maria! Congrats 💞
You're absolutely right - I once had an insurance broker tell me that dental and optical insurance was "a luxury." Like, really? That kind of care is essential to overall health!
@@littlespacesuit here in the united states that is the case. it remains the case as long as we allow it to be so and do not contact our lawmakers who need to revise the law vis a vis insurance practices.
As a dental assistant, your transformation IS INSANE!! BEAUTIFUL!! Also, it’s not always your fault as a patient as far as cavities go! The world today puts sooo much sugar in just about everything, even toothpastes have sugar for taste. A lot of times weaker teeth are genetic too❤️❤️Maria you are a gorgeous goddess and we appreciate you SO MUCH!!!!
@@makenziecollins7155 I’ve been using prescription higher fluoride toothpaste and flossing a lot more consistently. And it’s stopped some early decay from becoming full cavities. My dentist said to floss first and then use the toothpaste so the fluoride stays on the teeth, don’t rinse it. You can use it few times a week, don’t think you need to use it every day.
Yes!!! The change is really dramatic. It’s so cool how they took the care to shape your teeth and really leave you with a perfect smile. I had no idea it could be that drastic of a change when I honestly didn’t even notice an issue with your teeth before. So cool!
Ikr! In my experience as well I’ve had braces for 2 years now and they’ll be taken off soon. Before I thought my original teeth were a bit not aligned but it still looked fine, but now that they’re actually straight it’s a pretty big difference!
I’m high risk for cavities too. I know what you mean by being embarrassed! I’ve definitely had over 10 and it sucks. Thank you for sharing your journey with us! It makes me feel less alone about my dental issues.
As someone applying to dental school this year, it’s reassuring to know that adult patients can have such a positive turnaround with their perspective regarding dental care. So proud of you, Masha! 💓
Some people were never trained by their parents who were never trained. Maybe regular school should focus on this and making it a habit. Would stop so much suffering later on but that might put you out of a job! 🤭
Congratulations!! Your teeth look fantastic! I had braces when I was about 15/16, I am now 25. I still wear my retainer every night. I have so many friends who didnt wear their retainers and their teeth went back to how they were before. The retainer is KEY!!
I too am a hygienest and am always happy to see a happy ending, but as humans, we are not all supposed to have photo perfect teeth either as projected by commercialism. A healthy mouth is very important, but putting thousands upon thousands into them to just get a picture-perfect smile is above and beyond.
I really admire how you opted for a more natural and realistic approach to your teeth, whereas some RUclipsrs/influencers are quite quick to buy into crowns and veneers (especially when they don’t need them) for a “quick fix,” without realising how damaging they can be in the long run! So salute to you Maria! ♥️
I’m so proud of you Masha! As someone who has followed you since the beginning, I can immediately tell the difference not just in the appearance of your teeth but also your confidence and pride in your smile. Well done on sticking with it! I know it was no easy challenge!
I’m in my 30s and as soon as I’m able to save up some money I will get Invisalign myself. I’m so happy to hear someone else achieving their goals and talking about what future goals they want to set for themselves 💙 proud of you!
This is amazing! As a young adult, I know so many friends who skip dental checkups. But I think whatever age, it’s so important to invest in your overall health if you are able. Wish checkups were affordable for everyone though too, and I think that’s a big part of why many people don’t go as regularly to the dentist.
Thank you so much Maria! The past few years I have had such bad dental troubles because I didn't know I really had to brush and floss. HUGE learning in my life. I'm also in the process of finding an Orthodontist for Invisalign. Thanks for talking about this topic, so appreciated! Congratulations on all the work you've put into your dental health, your smile is so so beautiful!
You're teeth look wonderful! My biggest advice is to make sure you wear your retainers! I wear mine religiously but if i forget a night I can feel the difference the next day. It's crazy how fast they can shift.
🥳🥳🥳 I'm currently on this journey of getting my dental health back in order. Once you find the dentist and get into the chair, all the fears and shame start to wash off. Atleast for me, it did. And I can so relate to encouraging your child to not neglect their teeth. I've been transparent with my son also about my own neglect so that he doesn't make the same mistakes I've made.
This is SO inspiring! Thank you for sharing! I had 0 cavities....until my pregnancy. Hyperemesis WRECKS teeth. I kid you not, I've had around TWO DOZEN cavities filled directly related to that. It'll be an endless cycle of repairs. I'm seeing a new dentist soon, and we'll be planning an aggressive plan of attack for everything- cavities, orthodontic, and cosmetic 💪 Anyway, I love this video so much. Your teeth look amazing, and you seem so joyful 😊
YES!! Thank you! I also experienced hyperemesis during all four of my pregnancies (over a period of 16 years). I am now dealing with a host of dental problems 😞 It really does so much damage.
It’s crazy how easy it is to let your teeth go. My partner and I have been together 8 years this year - he slacked. I’ve been waiting to get my wisdom teeth out (they’re impacted) so had semi check ups but he had none. First visit to my dentist in five years I only had one cavity. My partner has 9 and needs his wisdom teeth out since they’ve rotted. I floss and he doesn’t so it’s interesting to see the difference. Hope he starts now 😂 I’ve also been trying to convince him to get Invisalign cause he always complains about his crooked teeth, seeing these results I might pay for it for him.
Flossing is sooo important. My dental health has gotten much better in the past few years now that I floss religiously. Plus anytime I get plaque out I’m like how long would that have been in my teeth had I not flossed 🤢
Yayyy!!! I’m a dental assistant and I’ve hated my crooked teeth my whole life, I’m gonna get my impressions done for Invisalign next week. I hope my smile ends up beautiful like yours!!! 🥰
@@nalinadlm definitely do not do any at home treatments, when we have patients that come in for the Invisalign impressions it often takes us multiple tries to get them absolutely perfect even though we do it everyday! Now imagine how wonky the impressions are when they’re done at home by someone who doesn’t have any experience in the dental field! It’s usually just as expensive as in-office aligners, so there really isn’t much of a benefit. There’s many different types of in-office clear aligner brands so your dentist may recommend something other than Invisalign, but as long as you’re doing clear aligner therapy with your dentist then you should be good!
Invisalign was the greatest invention for me. I was supposed to have braces for at least 4 years but with Invisalign it took a year only and I think Invisalign is even more precise as well
Ben with you guys for like 12 years now must say you are pure Gold. The car vids are pro -the ASMR vids have made like 2000 asmr artist who try to copy or are motivated buy ya-verry impressive.
Beautiful, Maria. Boy, orthodontia has really improved the results times since I was a girl (1970s) and wore full metal braces for almost 8 years. Btw... your state healthcare system should offer dental plans. They tend to be much less than healthcare insurance. I would check it out. Keep brushing!
I got Invisalign a few years ago and by the end of them I was sooo sick of them but still to this day I am so happy with the result! I didn’t have huge changes to make, but the changes made me love my smile so much
Maria, thank you for this informative video. Your teeth are beautiful and you’ve always had a beautiful smile! We need to see MILA again! I’m sure she’s grown so much since we last saw her. I miss seeing so much. She’s a doll and so smart! Please video her again soon, thank you!💜
Maria, thank you so much for highlighting the importance of dental hygiene. This is a conversation that we need to have more of. It’s a super important topic. This conversation has helped me so much in making me more aware to take care of my teeth and to do everything that I can to save the teeth that I still have ( I have lost a few teeth over the years) not good! But I have learned the lesson of of proper and consistent dental hygiene! Thank you so much for sharing your story with us! Your teeth look great! Actually your teeth look perfect! And definitely adds value to your already beautiful smile and face. Much love to you!❣️
Congratulations on your achievement! It looks great! I'm right there with you on being at high risk for cavities, it's no fun. I feel like I have a filling in every single tooth by now (that's an exaggeration, but not by much). Great job on conquering your goal!
I have a filling in between every one of my teeth bc they’re tightly packed and even using a waterpik and fluoride toothpaste I still get them 🥴 right there w u
Wow! So cool! Your teeth look magnificent 😁 Good going. I noticed your teeth had changed but missed this vid. After ❤️ surgery (2 mechanical valves) teeth hygiene was one of the first thing they talked to me about. They do w all ❤️ patients I think because your gums introduce bacteria into your circulation so good dental hygiene is way more important than most people know, especially flossing. Even w hard teeth (sounds like you have soft teeth like my Mom) I still got dental cleanings every 6 months ever since my surgery over 20 yrs ago (except pandemic which has been super rough because its been 3 years approx since last cleaning and it scares me about the health of my mechanical valves but I’m super high risk so am holding out till nasal or pan vaccines so can come out of isolation more - so sorry for the long story but that’s why for people like me w disabilities- you have been a God send. Thank you so much for making all of this easier for us. Your content is a GREAT comfort) I am not sure if people w soft teeth can use this formula. (your dentist or orthodontal Dr would be able to tell you) but just wanted to pass onto you my favorite dental trick while waiting to be able to see dentist (and feel more safe about the transmissibility of these newer variants despite vax). I use Colgate Optic White Advanced Whitening mouthwash with hydrogen peroxide. After research online-other than Colgates Peroxyl, it has one of highest % of hydrogen peroxide, which as a mouthwash component is great for killing bacteria, and so I gargle w it too. Not sure if would work for you in your case but wanted to share w you if it would help or you might be interested since you’ve been so great for people like us and are so vigilant w your dental health.
PS If would happen to check out these mothwashes work best by following instructions on bottle. They aren’t normal mouthwashes and you gargle and swish for 60 seconds. Thnkx again!
Totally agree, since having my braces for last 13months I never have taken care of my teeth so much and realise how important it is to look after them, they are an investment and part of your smile. That’s the first thing people see when you smile is your teeth.
You’re always such an angel! What a huge blessing, they look amazing! As I sit here I can’t sleep because of my tooth pain, never thought I would go through this but even if you have good hygiene and a nice smile it can happen if you don’t go to the dentist… unfortunately it’s expensive enough for regular healthcare but then you have to pay extra for dental at ridiculous prices. It’s beautiful to see you use your abundance for such an important healing thing. I lost my job of 6 years during the pandemic and have been trying to replace what I had. It’s been tough so there’s no money to stop this pain just yet, sometimes all I can do is cry. You teaching your child the importance of dental health and preparing her for that health journey is a wonderful thing. Sending love to you and all who see this🤍✨
Keep your Invisaligns. It has been a life saver for me. I use them on and off when I see my teeth beginning to shift. I have permanent retainers on my upper and lower teeth but they stopped working after a couple of years so I just pop the Invisalign‘s back in my mouth every once in a while and it works great. My husband got braces a few years ago and his teeth have shifted back and he wished that he got Invisalign‘s. I hope you got whitening trays for free afterwards like I did. By the way your teeth are beautiful crooked or straight.
Hi Maria! Your teeth look great, I’m so happy for you :) I just thought I’d mention the health at every size movement (HAES) since you touched on pursuing weight loss this year. I found that HAES resources helped me focus on health without the mental health difficulties that often come with dieting, like shame/guilt etc. Wishing you the best!
I had braces as a kid and around age 24 I noticed them starting to shift. A few years later I got Invisalign. Amazing! Though my orthodontist cut me off too soon and I had to do it again. Omg. Actually tomorrow I’m going in because more teeth have shifted even with my permanent retainer and night one. I feel like I’ll be fighting with my uppers my whole life. Loved this update!! They are beautiful!
I have been consistent with brushing and flossing my whole life and STILL get lots of cavities. I think sometimes it's just genetics! I have very grooved teeth and soft enamel. I've learned to stay on top of dentist appts, use fluoride, and that at the end of the day really nothing to feel guilty or embarrassed about. We're out here doing the best we can. :)
I just finished Invisalign a few months ago, and you are TOTALLY right - it's so motivating when you're done to realize that you got through to the other side! I also didn't realize just how self conscious I was of my smile until I had straight teeth. I mostly got Invisalign because I ground my teeth SO badly, but the changes in my bite are really just wild. I'm so proud of you for finishing, and for using what you've learned to inform teaching your daughter good behaviors!
Well done Maria. Your teeth look amazing. I keep showing the children (4-6yrs) in my class how to brush their teeth, as dental appointments are the main cause of absence in UK. schools and the state of our childrens teeth is the worst it's been for a decade. Mila will thank you one day.
This video was just what I needed to hear. Sometimes I think we feel embarrassed about things or isolated. It’s so relatable and grounding to here advice and first hand stories from others, especially when it comes from someone as glamorous as you☺️ Great job putting in the work and effort your smile is gorgeous ☺️
I just LOVE your take on the brushing teeth routine with children! It's very inspiring. I'm sure Mila will learn the importance of dental hygiene in a playful way, it sounds very thoughtful and creative ❤️
Wowww aww as a hygienist who has watched you since before I even went to college it’s awesome to hear you promoting good OH! Not many people realize how important the oral-systemic body connection is and teaching your kids these brushing habits. It’s so so sooo important to talk about this! Ab 80% of adults have some form of periodontal disease which research has shown to be linked to diabetes and dementia. Not a lot of people realize that inflammation in the mouth leads to inflammation in the rest of the body.
You look fantastic. I just wanted to share that I use these xylitol melts. You put them in your cheeks. They can help prevent cavities by increasing your saliva and starving the bacteria in between brushing. They may also stop bone loss around your teeth by modulating osteoblast activity. I use them all the time :) Some people say it gives them an upset stomach but not for me.
Amazing teeth and smile Maria! My daughter got told at the dentist the other day that she brushes her teeth well, fingers crossed no issues with cavities in the future. In NZ check ups are free for children. We also could claim ACC when my daughter chipped her tooth and it only cost us $160 when the full treatment was $360 (NZD dollars). Hopefully one day dentistry will be easier access for everyone!
I would have done your Invisalign for free! I’ve been a dentist for over a decade and your videos have got me through some tough times. Your smile looks great btw 😁
u do have a beautiful smile!! the change in the bite is AMAZING! such a subtle change but what a difference it makes in the health of your teeth and jaw :o
I was so excited to see this! As an insomniac, I've been listening to you for quite a while. I usually never hear the end of your ASMR videos, because they successfully put me to sleep. But, I also have invisiliners. I am now onto the refiners for a couple months. So glad to hear someone else's journey through this treatment. Especially the nice lady that relaxes me to sleep with her soft sleepy voice and sounds.
Maria I am so happy to see your progress! I just wanted to recommend a second opinion for your cavities before you get them filled. Unfortunately with the pandemic (and even before)dentists are showing areas of the tooth that are soft or have a build up of tartar and not a cavity yet. It's very unusual for a person that follows the recommended twice daily brushing and flossing to all of a sudden get 10+ cavities. No judgments at all, my friend. I just wanted to share. Wishing you all the best and thank you for always making the best content!
Your smile is beautiful! Dental health is so important and I spent the same amount of money getting mine taken care of. I’ve never had a crown or anything, but I’m very prone to cavities! I had my wisdom teeth removed, an orthodontic treatment, and a gum graft which took 24 months start to finish. Because my bite is perfect now I haven’t had a cavity in 4 years! I still battle gingivitis every day, but my dental health has completely changed for the better. You should feel so proud of all your hard work!
I LOVE when you have these conversations with us. You are right, dental hygiene is so important and I struggle with it. I think many many people do but they don't talk about it. I have nightmares my teeth will fall out but I've never had a cavity. 😭 I truly think genetics are saving me in that respect. I want to get Invisalign one day, thank you for sharing your experience with it through the whole process. ❤️❤️❤️
I start my invisalign soon, I just ended my tmj treatment, so this will help fix my bite. I am nervous with how uncomfortable it'll feel, or if it'll give me more painful headaches. Thank you for sharing. It does suck how expensive it is to get the teeth fixed, but anything is expensive. I have an 8 year old daughter with braces, so glad she can start getting a beautiful smile at a young age!
I understand you so much! I am in the middle of my straightening journey as an adult. I think it's somewhat harder when you have to go through this physically (pain, inconvenience, appointments) and still keep up with job, home and other things. Will definitely do my best so that my children are regularly checked and treated on time
Can't believe it's been a year already! The result is amazing. I recently had a terrible experience at the dentist where both my front teeth were cracked and I had to dish out $300 (which is a lot for me) and just with getting older I've also become more aware of the fact that I should try and take care of my teeth as best as I can, because getting new ones are painful...and painfully expensive! xD Now I've started flossing every day!
FLOSSING is critical. If you don't, it's like you never brushed your teeth. All the food and bacteria pretty much stays put, even if you brush beautifully. I am addicted to flossing and use those glider, stick, placard things... they are in my purse, my workplace desk drawer, my car, my bedroom. It is so satisfying to use those things. You can teach your baby girl how to do it with those so easily.
My bottom teeth used to be a lot like yours before I had braces. They look so beautiful and I’m glad it was worth it for you. When you show the before and after… wow there is a big difference! Congrats Maria :)
You look amazing, I am very happy for you. Myself I have always taking really good care of my teeth. I don't want to bore anyone with a long dragged out story, getting to the point, because of health issues and a vitamin deficiency that I had, and I'm still working on, over the past several years my teeth have just gotten worse and worse. I have went to the dentist, had things done, it just does not last long.... I have insurance, sadly it doesn't cover" what I need done. It truly is important to take good care of your teeth. Taking good care of your health plays a huge part in having good teeth as well, I truly wish I would have done better. It has truly affected the way I feel about myself, and the way that I am around others, I pray for the day that I may be able to fix this situation... Thank you so much for sharing Maria God bless!!! ❤️
I have read that fluoride can be neurotoxic and hard for the body to get rid of. Nano-hydroxyapatite is said to be a safer alternative and may even be better at remineralization of teeth in some cases. Just letting you know in case you wanted to delve into this further.
hey maria!! i was watching a few of your older videos on this channel- i didn't know you lived in maryland!!! i might be wrong but that's so cool cuz i used to live there before i moved! really cool that we could've crossed paths before :)
You look stunning!!! I had traditional braces and at the end they were not even straight. Like literally you can see the shape of my teeth on my retainer and see that they were not left straight. So I been contemplating getting Invisalign but I’m really scared I’ll be disappointed again. I need a good doctor
It's an amazing before and after, and yet even in the before your smile has always been so warm and beautiful because it reaches all the way up to your eyes! Just a dazzling lady!
One thing I've added during covid actually with respect to my dental hygiene is that I now wash my toothbrush like I do my other utensils. We don't just rinse off our spoons and forks, right? I don't know why dentists don't stress that we need to keep our toothbrushes clean. And I have to say, my breath is better for it. Just thought I'd add that little tip. You look great Maria! Thanks for the awesome video and for sharing your journey! :o)
I'm so glad you're happy with your results! I have been thinking about getting invisalign to straighten 3 teeth that shifted over the years after braces. Maybe when I finish getting my doctorate, I don't think I could handle both at the same time. Your smile is even brighter and congratulations on achieving your goal!
I had metal braces as an adult for a year. I then got a fixed retainer to the back of my teeth as well as a plastic retainer for night time. I stopped wearing the plastic retainer and now one of my lower teeth is a little crooked again. Highly encourage retainer wearing even if you have a fixed one.
Your smile looks just like your mothers now! Honestly, it is beautiful, but it was already beautiful. Still I can see the difference and I am glad you are so happy about it.
Can you please document your weight loss, meals, routines, exercise, lifestyle changes, etc? I’ve been watching your videos forever and would love to follow along with you as I’m currently on a similar path. :)
Your teeth look great! I really want to try Invisalign but my teeth aren’t that crooked, and I need to save money for other dental work I’ll need in the future since my teeth aren’t in the best shape :-/ I so wish I’d learned the importance of good dental hygiene at a younger age, it would have saved me a lot of pain and money.
I love this stories because I also have a bunch of problems with my teeth. Is amazing to see what to expect once I began the journey. Thank you so much for sharing! Please keep sharing more!!
Maria, thank you so much for sharing your journey with us! I am currently on tray #8 and at the end will have spent around $10k as you did trying to fix my teeth. Be proud of yourself! 💚
The result looks amazing! You're so right about the importance of dental treatments. I wore braces for 6 years as a teenager, and I honestly feel like the result could have been so much better if I had the responsibility required :(
I highly recommend you get sealants on your teeth…it helps a lot with cavities and cavity prevention. Do the same with Milla especially when she gets her permanent teeth in.
You're looking beautiful! And not just because your teeth look great, but also because you look radiant! I'm so happy for you, and you gave me the hope and excitement to start a challenge as well! 🥰🥰🥰🥰
We have arrived to the final look of my journey with Invisalign, being in my mid-30s it was a cool experience and I am really happy with my results. My treatment was projected to be around 18 months but ended up being only 1 year long, YAY! Watch my other 2 videos to see the progression.

Looks fantastic! I love that this is a new way, versus traditional braces, to activate your best smile. Thanks for sharing.

What is a good toothpaste for someone with a lot of cavities?

Yes!!! The change is really dramatic. It’s so cool how they took the care to shape your teeth and really leave you with a perfect smile. I had no idea it could be that drastic of a change when I honestly didn’t even notice an issue with your teeth before. So cool!
good for Maria that she got the changes she wanted but all smiles are beautiful anyway, straight teeth or not
Ikr! In my experience as well I’ve had braces for 2 years now and they’ll be taken off soon. Before I thought my original teeth were a bit not aligned but it still looked fine, but now that they’re actually straight it’s a pretty big difference!
I’m high risk for cavities too. I know what you mean by being embarrassed! I’ve definitely had over 10 and it sucks. Thank you for sharing your journey with us! It makes me feel less alone about my dental issues.

As someone applying to dental school this year, it’s reassuring to know that adult patients can have such a positive turnaround with their perspective regarding dental care. So proud of you, Masha! 💓
Some people were never trained by their parents who were never trained. Maybe regular school should focus on this and making it a habit. Would stop so much suffering later on but that might put you out of a job! 🤭
@@leejennifercorlewayres9193 I agree! Schools should focus on this in health class. I’m sure I’d still have a job!
Congratulations!! Your teeth look fantastic! I had braces when I was about 15/16, I am now 25. I still wear my retainer every night. I have so many friends who didnt wear their retainers and their teeth went back to how they were before. The retainer is KEY!!
I too am a hygienest and am always happy to see a happy ending, but as humans, we are not all supposed to have photo perfect teeth either as projected by commercialism. A healthy mouth is very important, but putting thousands upon thousands into them to just get a picture-perfect smile is above and beyond.
I really admire how you opted for a more natural and realistic approach to your teeth, whereas some RUclipsrs/influencers are quite quick to buy into crowns and veneers (especially when they don’t need them) for a “quick fix,” without realising how damaging they can be in the long run! So salute to you Maria! ♥️
I’m so proud of you Masha! As someone who has followed you since the beginning, I can immediately tell the difference not just in the appearance of your teeth but also your confidence and pride in your smile. Well done on sticking with it! I know it was no easy challenge!
I’m in my 30s and as soon as I’m able to save up some money I will get Invisalign myself. I’m so happy to hear someone else achieving their goals and talking about what future goals they want to set for themselves 💙 proud of you!
This is amazing! As a young adult, I know so many friends who skip dental checkups. But I think whatever age, it’s so important to invest in your overall health if you are able. Wish checkups were affordable for everyone though too, and I think that’s a big part of why many people don’t go as regularly to the dentist.
I did Invisalign back in 2007. I was amazed how quickly they worked. Nine months for upper, 4 months for lower. The best investment ever !
Thank you so much Maria! The past few years I have had such bad dental troubles because I didn't know I really had to brush and floss. HUGE learning in my life. I'm also in the process of finding an Orthodontist for Invisalign. Thanks for talking about this topic, so appreciated! Congratulations on all the work you've put into your dental health, your smile is so so beautiful!
I recommend getting a permanent retainer. It’s life changing!
You're teeth look wonderful! My biggest advice is to make sure you wear your retainers! I wear mine religiously but if i forget a night I can feel the difference the next day. It's crazy how fast they can shift.
🥳🥳🥳
I'm currently on this journey of getting my dental health back in order. Once you find the dentist and get into the chair, all the fears and shame start to wash off. Atleast for me, it did. And I can so relate to encouraging your child to not neglect their teeth. I've been transparent with my son also about my own neglect so that he doesn't make the same mistakes I've made.
I•m dentalhygienist and I’m happy for you! And your realizing how important it is to take care of your teeth 😁
This is SO inspiring! Thank you for sharing!
I had 0 cavities....until my pregnancy. Hyperemesis WRECKS teeth. I kid you not, I've had around TWO DOZEN cavities filled directly related to that. It'll be an endless cycle of repairs. I'm seeing a new dentist soon, and we'll be planning an aggressive plan of attack for everything- cavities, orthodontic, and cosmetic 💪
Anyway, I love this video so much. Your teeth look amazing, and you seem so joyful 😊
YES!! Thank you! I also experienced hyperemesis during all four of my pregnancies (over a period of 16 years). I am now dealing with a host of dental problems 😞 It really does so much damage.
You’ve always had such a beautiful smile. I can see how much more confident you feel now.
Dental Hygienist here✋🏻 SO PROUD of you & all the work you’ve put in & all the knowledge you have gained! Your smile is just as beautiful as you!!💋
It’s crazy how easy it is to let your teeth go. My partner and I have been together 8 years this year - he slacked. I’ve been waiting to get my wisdom teeth out (they’re impacted) so had semi check ups but he had none. First visit to my dentist in five years I only had one cavity. My partner has 9 and needs his wisdom teeth out since they’ve rotted. I floss and he doesn’t so it’s interesting to see the difference. Hope he starts now 😂 I’ve also been trying to convince him to get Invisalign cause he always complains about his crooked teeth, seeing these results I might pay for it for him.
Flossing is sooo important. My dental health has gotten much better in the past few years now that I floss religiously. Plus anytime I get plaque out I’m like how long would that have been in my teeth had I not flossed 🤢
Yayyy!!! I’m a dental assistant and I’ve hated my crooked teeth my whole life, I’m gonna get my impressions done for Invisalign next week. I hope my smile ends up beautiful like yours!!! 🥰
I’m looking into going with Byte vs Invisalign. Do you have any opinions?
@@nalinadlm definitely do not do any at home treatments, when we have patients that come in for the Invisalign impressions it often takes us multiple tries to get them absolutely perfect even though we do it everyday! Now imagine how wonky the impressions are when they’re done at home by someone who doesn’t have any experience in the dental field! It’s usually just as expensive as in-office aligners, so there really isn’t much of a benefit. There’s many different types of in-office clear aligner brands so your dentist may recommend something other than Invisalign, but as long as you’re doing clear aligner therapy with your dentist then you should be good!
Invisalign was the greatest invention for me. I was supposed to have braces for at least 4 years but with Invisalign it took a year only and I think Invisalign is even more precise as well
Ben with you guys for like 12 years now must say you are pure Gold. The car vids are pro -the ASMR vids have made like 2000 asmr artist who try to copy or are motivated buy ya-verry impressive.
Beautiful, Maria. Boy, orthodontia has really improved the results times since I was a girl (1970s) and wore full metal braces for almost 8 years. Btw... your state healthcare system should offer dental plans. They tend to be much less than healthcare insurance. I would check it out. Keep brushing!
Glad your bite is corrected. I liked your teeth in the past and they look nice now too.
I got Invisalign a few years ago and by the end of them I was sooo sick of them but still to this day I am so happy with the result! I didn’t have huge changes to make, but the changes made me love my smile so much
Got out of bed and brushed and flossed because of you! Thank you!
Maria, thank you for this informative video. Your teeth are beautiful and you’ve always had a beautiful smile!
We need to see MILA again! I’m sure she’s grown so much since we last saw her. I miss seeing so much. She’s a doll and so smart! Please video her again soon, thank you!💜
Maria, thank you so much for highlighting the importance of dental hygiene. This is a conversation that we need to have more of. It’s a super important topic. This conversation has helped me so much in making me more aware to take care of my teeth and to do everything that I can to save the teeth that I still have ( I have lost a few teeth over the years) not good! But I have learned the lesson of of proper and consistent dental hygiene! Thank you so much for sharing your story with us! Your teeth look great! Actually your teeth look perfect! And definitely adds value to your already beautiful smile and face. Much love to you!❣️
Congratulations on your achievement! It looks great! I'm right there with you on being at high risk for cavities, it's no fun. I feel like I have a filling in every single tooth by now (that's an exaggeration, but not by much). Great job on conquering your goal!
I have a filling in between every one of my teeth bc they’re tightly packed and even using a waterpik and fluoride toothpaste I still get them 🥴 right there w u
Wow! So cool! Your teeth look magnificent 😁 Good going. I noticed your teeth had changed but missed this vid. After ❤️ surgery (2 mechanical valves) teeth hygiene was one of the first thing they talked to me about. They do w all ❤️ patients I think because your gums introduce bacteria into your circulation so good dental hygiene is way more important than most people know, especially flossing. Even w hard teeth (sounds like you have soft teeth like my Mom) I still got dental cleanings every 6 months ever since my surgery over 20 yrs ago (except pandemic which has been super rough because its been 3 years approx since last cleaning and it scares me about the health of my mechanical valves but I’m super high risk so am holding out till nasal or pan vaccines so can come out of isolation more - so sorry for the long story but that’s why for people like me w disabilities- you have been a God send. Thank you so much for making all of this easier for us. Your content is a GREAT comfort) I am not sure if people w soft teeth can use this formula. (your dentist or orthodontal Dr would be able to tell you) but just wanted to pass onto you my favorite dental trick while waiting to be able to see dentist (and feel more safe about the transmissibility of these newer variants despite vax). I use Colgate Optic White Advanced Whitening mouthwash with hydrogen peroxide. After research online-other than Colgates Peroxyl, it has one of highest % of hydrogen peroxide, which as a mouthwash component is great for killing bacteria, and so I gargle w it too. Not sure if would work for you in your case but wanted to share w you if it would help or you might be interested since you’ve been so great for people like us and are so vigilant w your dental health.
PS If would happen to check out these mothwashes work best by following instructions on bottle. They aren’t normal mouthwashes and you gargle and swish for 60 seconds. Thnkx again!
Totally agree, since having my braces for last 13months I never have taken care of my teeth so much and realise how important it is to look after them, they are an investment and part of your smile. That’s the first thing people see when you smile is your teeth.
You’re always such an angel! What a huge blessing, they look amazing! As I sit here I can’t sleep because of my tooth pain, never thought I would go through this but even if you have good hygiene and a nice smile it can happen if you don’t go to the dentist… unfortunately it’s expensive enough for regular healthcare but then you have to pay extra for dental at ridiculous prices. It’s beautiful to see you use your abundance for such an important healing thing. I lost my job of 6 years during the pandemic and have been trying to replace what I had. It’s been tough so there’s no money to stop this pain just yet, sometimes all I can do is cry. You teaching your child the importance of dental health and preparing her for that health journey is a wonderful thing. Sending love to you and all who see this🤍✨
Keep your Invisaligns.
It has been a life saver for me.
I use them on and off when I see my teeth beginning to shift. I have permanent retainers on my upper and lower teeth but they stopped working after a couple of years so I just pop the Invisalign‘s back in my mouth every once in a while and it works great. My husband got braces a few years ago and his teeth have shifted back and he wished that he got Invisalign‘s. I hope you got whitening trays for free afterwards like I did.
By the way your teeth are beautiful crooked or straight.
Hi Maria! Your teeth look great, I’m so happy for you :) I just thought I’d mention the health at every size movement (HAES) since you touched on pursuing weight loss this year. I found that HAES resources helped me focus on health without the mental health difficulties that often come with dieting, like shame/guilt etc. Wishing you the best!
I had braces as a kid and around age 24 I noticed them starting to shift. A few years
later I got Invisalign. Amazing! Though my orthodontist cut me off too soon and I had to do it again. Omg. Actually tomorrow I’m going in because more teeth have shifted even with my permanent retainer and night one.
I feel like I’ll be fighting with my uppers my whole life.
Loved this update!! They are beautiful!
I have been consistent with brushing and flossing my whole life and STILL get lots of cavities. I think sometimes it's just genetics! I have very grooved teeth and soft enamel. I've learned to stay on top of dentist appts, use fluoride, and that at the end of the day really nothing to feel guilty or embarrassed about. We're out here doing the best we can. :)
I just finished Invisalign a few months ago, and you are TOTALLY right - it's so motivating when you're done to realize that you got through to the other side! I also didn't realize just how self conscious I was of my smile until I had straight teeth. I mostly got Invisalign because I ground my teeth SO badly, but the changes in my bite are really just wild. I'm so proud of you for finishing, and for using what you've learned to inform teaching your daughter good behaviors!
Well done Maria. Your teeth look amazing. I keep showing the children (4-6yrs) in my class how to brush their teeth, as dental appointments are the main cause of absence in UK. schools and the state of our childrens teeth is the worst it's been for a decade. Mila will thank you one day.
I am wearing braces now, 29 years old. Got them six weeks ago, and already it is a 70% improvement 🥳🥳🥳 So happy.
Thank you for sharing Maria 🥰
This video was just what I needed to hear. Sometimes I think we feel embarrassed about things or isolated. It’s so relatable and grounding to here advice and first hand stories from others, especially when it comes from someone as glamorous as you☺️ Great job putting in the work and effort your smile is gorgeous ☺️
I just LOVE your take on the brushing teeth routine with children! It's very inspiring. I'm sure Mila will learn the importance of dental hygiene in a playful way, it sounds very thoughtful and creative ❤️
Wowww aww as a hygienist who has watched you since before I even went to college it’s awesome to hear you promoting good OH! Not many people realize how important the oral-systemic body connection is and teaching your kids these brushing habits. It’s so so sooo important to talk about this! Ab 80% of adults have some form of periodontal disease which research has shown to be linked to diabetes and dementia. Not a lot of people realize that inflammation in the mouth leads to inflammation in the rest of the body.
Beautiful smile then, beautiful smile now. 🥰 So happy for you Maria!
Aww! I’m cavity prone too ☹️ I’m also on special toothpaste, and I go in the cleanings every 3-4 months. Your teeth look great!
I am currently on a weight loss/fitness journey through Beachbody and am loving it so far!
You look fantastic. I just wanted to share that I use these xylitol melts. You put them in your cheeks. They can help prevent cavities by increasing your saliva and starving the bacteria in between brushing. They may also stop bone loss around your teeth by modulating osteoblast activity. I use them all the time :) Some people say it gives them an upset stomach but not for me.
Amazing teeth and smile Maria! My daughter got told at the dentist the other day that she brushes her teeth well, fingers crossed no issues with cavities in the future. In NZ check ups are free for children. We also could claim ACC when my daughter chipped her tooth and it only cost us $160 when the full treatment was $360 (NZD dollars). Hopefully one day dentistry will be easier access for everyone!
I would have done your Invisalign for free! I’ve been a dentist for over a decade and your videos have got me through some tough times. Your smile looks great btw 😁
Can’t wait to watch this later Maria. I started my treatment only 4 days ago! Xxx
All the dental professionals here appreciate you promoting oral health and hygiene! Thank you from a dental hygienist! 💜
u do have a beautiful smile!! the change in the bite is AMAZING! such a subtle change but what a difference it makes in the health of your teeth and jaw :o
Hi Maria, honestly anything you talk about is interesting, your personality and topics of conversation are lovely. Congratulations on the achievement!
This was amazing! I loved noticing how your teeth were getting better in your videos. This def gives me the courage to take my teeth serious!
I was so excited to see this! As an insomniac, I've been listening to you for quite a while. I usually never hear the end of your ASMR videos, because they successfully put me to sleep. But, I also have invisiliners. I am now onto the refiners for a couple months. So glad to hear someone else's journey through this treatment. Especially the nice lady that relaxes me to sleep with her soft sleepy voice and sounds.
Maria I am so happy to see your progress! I just wanted to recommend a second opinion for your cavities before you get them filled. Unfortunately with the pandemic (and even before)dentists are showing areas of the tooth that are soft or have a build up of tartar and not a cavity yet. It's very unusual for a person that follows the recommended twice daily brushing and flossing to all of a sudden get 10+ cavities. No judgments at all, my friend. I just wanted to share. Wishing you all the best and thank you for always making the best content!
congratulations! always be proud of yourself! you are the most wonderful ambassador for self care. myself and countless others are thankful for you!!!
Your smile is beautiful! Dental health is so important and I spent the same amount of money getting mine taken care of. I’ve never had a crown or anything, but I’m very prone to cavities! I had my wisdom teeth removed, an orthodontic treatment, and a gum graft which took 24 months start to finish. Because my bite is perfect now I haven’t had a cavity in 4 years! I still battle gingivitis every day, but my dental health has completely changed for the better. You should feel so proud of all your hard work!
I LOVE when you have these conversations with us. You are right, dental hygiene is so important and I struggle with it. I think many many people do but they don't talk about it. I have nightmares my teeth will fall out but I've never had a cavity. 😭 I truly think genetics are saving me in that respect. I want to get Invisalign one day, thank you for sharing your experience with it through the whole process. ❤️❤️❤️
I start my invisalign soon, I just ended my tmj treatment, so this will help fix my bite. I am nervous with how uncomfortable it'll feel, or if it'll give me more painful headaches. Thank you for sharing. It does suck how expensive it is to get the teeth fixed, but anything is expensive. I have an 8 year old daughter with braces, so glad she can start getting a beautiful smile at a young age!
They look so beautiful! You look so much like your beautiful mum. So sweet 😍
I understand you so much! I am in the middle of my straightening journey as an adult. I think it's somewhat harder when you have to go through this physically (pain, inconvenience, appointments) and still keep up with job, home and other things. Will definitely do my best so that my children are regularly checked and treated on time
Can't believe it's been a year already! The result is amazing. I recently had a terrible experience at the dentist where both my front teeth were cracked and I had to dish out $300 (which is a lot for me) and just with getting older I've also become more aware of the fact that I should try and take care of my teeth as best as I can, because getting new ones are painful...and painfully expensive! xD Now I've started flossing every day!
FLOSSING is critical. If you don't, it's like you never brushed your teeth. All the food and bacteria pretty much stays put, even if you brush beautifully. I am addicted to flossing and use those glider, stick, placard things... they are in my purse, my workplace desk drawer, my car, my bedroom. It is so satisfying to use those things. You can teach your baby girl how to do it with those so easily.
My bottom teeth used to be a lot like yours before I had braces. They look so beautiful and I’m glad it was worth it for you. When you show the before and after… wow there is a big difference! Congrats Maria :)
wow ! what an amazing result! I'm also mid way through my treatment and I'm so looking forward to seeing the final changes! 💜
You look amazing, I am very happy for you. Myself I have always taking really good care of my teeth. I don't want to bore anyone with a long dragged out story, getting to the point, because of health issues and a vitamin deficiency that I had, and I'm still working on, over the past several years my teeth have just gotten worse and worse. I have went to the dentist, had things done, it just does not last long.... I have insurance, sadly it doesn't cover" what I need done. It truly is important to take good care of your teeth. Taking good care of your health plays a huge part in having good teeth as well, I truly wish I would have done better. It has truly affected the way I feel about myself, and the way that I am around others, I pray for the day that I may be able to fix this situation... Thank you so much for sharing Maria God bless!!! ❤️
I have read that fluoride can be neurotoxic and hard for the body to get rid of. Nano-hydroxyapatite is said to be a safer alternative and may even be better at remineralization of teeth in some cases. Just letting you know in case you wanted to delve into this further.
The teeth look amazing!!! I've also had Invisalign for a year and a half. It's so worth all the pain and discomfort.
hey maria!! i was watching a few of your older videos on this channel- i didn't know you lived in maryland!!! i might be wrong but that's so cool cuz i used to live there before i moved! really cool that we could've crossed paths before :)
Ugh this reminded me I need to go to the dentist 😅 they look beautiful Maria!
i love your teeth 😩😩you look amazing Maria!!!
Your smile has always been and always will be dazzling!! It lights up the world!
You look stunning!!! I had traditional braces and at the end they were not even straight. Like literally you can see the shape of my teeth on my retainer and see that they were not left straight. So I been contemplating getting Invisalign but I’m really scared I’ll be disappointed again. I need a good doctor
It's an amazing before and after, and yet even in the before your smile has always been so warm and beautiful because it reaches all the way up to your eyes! Just a dazzling lady!
A handy tip I’ve seen: putting toothbrushes where your kid can reach them themselves can encourage them to brush
Wow) I’m so happy for you!
Super! Great result!
One thing I've added during covid actually with respect to my dental hygiene is that I now wash my toothbrush like I do my other utensils. We don't just rinse off our spoons and forks, right? I don't know why dentists don't stress that we need to keep our toothbrushes clean. And I have to say, my breath is better for it. Just thought I'd add that little tip. You look great Maria! Thanks for the awesome video and for sharing your journey! :o)
Saw the titled and yelled “yaaaay!!!” So happy for you Maria ☺️ Self care has so many different aspects 👏🏼
I'm so glad you're happy with your results! I have been thinking about getting invisalign to straighten 3 teeth that shifted over the years after braces. Maybe when I finish getting my doctorate, I don't think I could handle both at the same time. Your smile is even brighter and congratulations on achieving your goal!
Yes I’ve missed this channel! Xx
Also as someone who’s heading into the adulting world, these are super interesting!
I had metal braces as an adult for a year. I then got a fixed retainer to the back of my teeth as well as a plastic retainer for night time. I stopped wearing the plastic retainer and now one of my lower teeth is a little crooked again. Highly encourage retainer wearing even if you have a fixed one.
Your smile looks just like your mothers now! Honestly, it is beautiful, but it was already beautiful. Still I can see the difference and I am glad you are so happy about it.
Can you please document your weight loss, meals, routines, exercise, lifestyle changes, etc? I’ve been watching your videos forever and would love to follow along with you as I’m currently on a similar path. :)
You look great!!! So happy to see you uploaded💜
Your teeth look great! I really want to try Invisalign but my teeth aren’t that crooked, and I need to save money for other dental work I’ll need in the future since my teeth aren’t in the best shape :-/ I so wish I’d learned the importance of good dental hygiene at a younger age, it would have saved me a lot of pain and money.
So happy for you, Maria 💙☁️✨
I love this stories because I also have a bunch of problems with my teeth. Is amazing to see what to expect once I began the journey. Thank you so much for sharing! Please keep sharing more!!
Maria, thank you so much for sharing your journey with us! I am currently on tray #8 and at the end will have spent around $10k as you did trying to fix my teeth. Be proud of yourself! 💚
The result looks amazing! You're so right about the importance of dental treatments. I wore braces for 6 years as a teenager, and I honestly feel like the result could have been so much better if I had the responsibility required :(
Holy moly! Your teeth look amazing Maria! So proud of you for taking care and respecting yourself and being faithful to the process!
Thanks for your video Maria! I’m just starting my Invisalign correction phase, final 10 trays! Your teeth look beautiful xx
can we talk about this background??? so pretty and matches your eyes so we’ll!
well** oops
This is very cool to see how well your teeth turned out. Thanks for sharing your experience so frankly.
I highly recommend you get sealants on your teeth…it helps a lot with cavities and cavity prevention. Do the same with Milla especially when she gets her permanent teeth in.
You're looking beautiful! And not just because your teeth look great, but also because you look radiant! I'm so happy for you, and you gave me the hope and excitement to start a challenge as well! 🥰🥰🥰🥰
