The Journey begins: I have been waiting days to announce to you that 24/7 MOMS is part of the 2012 Invisalign Mom Advisory Board. It begin several months ago when I ( Trisha) attended a local SITS girls bloggy boot camp event in Seattle. There was a free morning breakfast option to attend and hear more about Invisalign – I had no idea at the time what, who or why there was a product called Invisalign but I did know one thing I was getting a free breakfast – who doesn’t like free?.
I sat in a room filled with fellow bloggers eating my breakfast listening about a product that I quickly knew was one that I needed to know more about – directly after the breakfast I introduced myself to the Invisalign team asking more questions only to convince myself even more that if nothing more came out of my day this one breakfast was worth getting up early and driving the distance to learn about a product I wanted to use with my own children in the days ahead.
Are you already asking me why? and what is Invisalign? 
Get ready to travel the journey with me – I will spend the next 12 months sharing our families Invisalign journey with you as our twelve year old son Caleb begins his treatment withInvisalign Teen – as part of the Invisalign Mom Advisory Board Caleb will begin his visits to the orthodontist in March and you will get to experience our journey of appointments, Caleb’s responses, and learn more about why Invisalign Teen.
A quick explanation: Invisalign Teen® takes a modern approach to straightening teeth. With a series of clear aligners that gradually straighten your teeth,Invisalign Teen is comfortable, affordable and effective. And without brackets and wires- Yes it’s true no more metal mouth or railroad track teeth – Names that I was called during my brace wearing years.
To kick of my role on the Mom advisory team I was flown to Invisaligns headquarters in San Jose, California to meet with three other mom bloggers Ciaran from Momfluential, Carmen from Mom To The Screaming Masses and Jennifer from Mommy B Knows Best who are also beginning their journey with Invisalign either for themselves or with one of their children. We spent our time becoming educated on Invisalign, touring the lab, meeting the PR team and many of the Invisalign staff along with eating lots of yummy food.
While in San Jose the Invislalign team shared several ad campaigns with us – my all time favorite was the below commercial – take 30 seconds and watch it for your self – then check back in next month as Caleb begins his journey.
