Act Against Aids and Let’s Stop HIV Together
This post is made possible by support from the Let’s Stop HIV Together campaign. All opinions are my own. I grew up in the 80's and this is the time when AIDS really came...
This month Align Technology, the makers of Invisalign, announced that 3 million patients have now started treatment with the Invisalign system, the modern approach to straightening teeth. How exciting is that? As an Invisalign patient and part of the mom advisory board, I am thrilled with my Invisalign treatment so far. I want everyone to have a fabulous smile!

I am a member of the Invisalign Mom Advisory Board. I am receiving complimentary Invisalign treatment as part of this program. All opinions are my own. Invisalign Mom Advisory Board Disclosure Statement.
Invisalign is so cool. They allow people to get braces free of embarrassment later in life.
This is something I wish I would have had growing up. I needed braces but my mom was never able to afford them.
I love it when companies give back like this. I am super impressed by this.
Operation Smile is such a wonderful program. I would love some Invisalign. I looked at them some time ago, so I know they are a great company and product.
This sounds like a great program. Invisalign sounds like a great alternative over regular braces.
My daughter has a friend who used invisalign. It worked so well!
I have heard nothing but amazing things about invisalign. I feel like they would make a huge difference for me. My mom couldn’t afford braces when i was younger so my teeth could use some help! This is fantastic!
Nice way to help teeth. Like that they so operation Smile also
I wish i would have been able to have Invisalign when i had braces. Operation Smile sounds like an amazing organization.
What an easy way to give back to a beautiful cause. I am going to look into Invisalign for my children as they enter into the orthodontist consultation stage.
How exciting that Invisalign is sponsoring this contribution to Operation Smile. I hope everyone smiles for this opportunity.
We are just starting to think about braces for my oldest! Invisalign wasn’t an option when I had braces, but it sounds like great fit for my kids.
I love how they’re donating a minimum value already. What a fantastic cause!
Wow, I had no idea it was 3 million people! I definitely am keeping in mind for my littles.
This is such a great campaign. I love when companies make it easy for us to help charity. I also wish Invisalign had been around when I had braces!
I wish I had known about Invisalign when I had braces in high school. I think they would have been a much better alternative to the metal!
I love how Invisalign is virtually invisible. My youngest is going to need something for her teeth. She’s a thumb sucker!
I really want to get Invisalign! I’m 25 and feel too old for braces but these would be perfect.
I have custom nightguard that looks very similar to this product. I find myself chomping down so much though. I wonder how I’d be with this product? I know I sure need it!
Operation Smile is a fantastic program! I love companies that give back like this.
I was thrilled with my Invisalign experience and would always recommend them to anyone! I’m glad you are loving it!
