nwhikerLinnea has Invisalign thingies. She had an appointment today to get her latest trays.
She has to clip one of those awful little rubber bands to the top and bottom tray.
It's pretty much impossible for her to do alone, with fingers. I couldn't either.
I was able to do it using forceps, but eh, that isn't a long term solution, since the elastics need to be changed out every time she eats. I'll have dh take a look later, he's pretty good with braces and the like, and we'll see if he can come up with a better idea than "parent with forceps."
ETA: The other possibility is to feed her only milkshakes with straws for the next six months.
