Invisalign Process?!
Question: What happens from the point when you first go to your orthodontist to the point where you get your first aligners? What's it like having your teeth scanned? Does anything before getting the aligners cause pain or discomfort, like the scanning or anything else?

I did not have my teeth "scanned". They put trays with gooey blue stuff in my mouth and made prints of my top and bottom teeth. It was not painful at all, just gross. As far as I can remember, ther eis no pain involved until you put your first invisalign tray in your mouth. This involves being terribly uncomfortable in a week. It will go away, though so just keep them in! I wanted to quit right then because it hurt so bad, but it will get better! Now I can't even feel them in my mouth.
Good Luck!
