does anyone else have this problem?

I’ve been trying to keep proper tongue posture, but I can’t seem to get my entire tongue on the roof of my mouth. I can place the tip behind my front teeth, but the middle/back of my tongue won’t stay up comfortably.
I’m currently undergoing Invisalign treatment and have a deep bite/TMJ issues, so I’m wondering if that could be contributing.
Has anyone experienced this? Was it due to a tongue tie, narrow/high palate, poor tongue mobility, or just lack of practice? What ended up helping you?

I’m curious about other people’s experiences.
If you needed elastics with Invisalign, at what tray did your orthodontist have you start wearing them?
Mine wants me to start around tray 5–6, but I was wondering if that’s pretty standard or if some people started from tray 1 or 2.
Did starting later affect your results at all, or was there a reason your orthodontist waited?
I’d love to hear your experiences and what kind of bite issue you were correcting (deep bite, Class II, overjet, etc.).

Having trouble keeping my tongue on the roof of my mouth.
I’ve attached a photo of the underside of my tongue.
I’ve always struggled to keep my entire tongue on the roof of my mouth, especially the back part. I can get the tip up, but I can’t comfortably keep the whole tongue suctioned to my palate.
I’m currently undergoing Invisalign treatment for a deep bite/TMJ issues, and I’m wondering if a tongue tie could be contributing to my problems.
From the photo, does this look like a tongue tie (or a mild posterior tongue tie), or does it seem more like a habit, high palate, or lack of tongue mobility?
If anyone has had a similar experience or if any dentists, orthodontists, or myofunctional therapists can share their opinion, I’d really appreciate it.

Getting some discount on this watch from retail store. Is it worth to get ? this would be my first automatic watch

Having some breathing issues.

so wanted to know is it good?

Im having around 38-40mm width between molars. i’m good?

I need some advice because I’m extremely frustrated.

My orthodontist convinced me to choose Invisalign over braces and quoted me 1600$ . Before I paid, he told me I would be getting an Invisalign Comprehensive plan, around 28 trays initially, plus refinements if needed. Based on that, I agreed to treatment.

After paying the first installment, I waited almost 6 weeks for the trays to arrive. During that time I kept getting different delivery dates and explanations. Communication was poor throughout.

Today I finally received my aligners. When I checked the packet, it clearly says Invisalign Lite and 1 of 14 trays.

Now the doctor is telling me that after these 14 trays, if my bite and alignment are not corrected, he can order another set later.

I was actually getting BRACES, and I have moderate bite issues (CLASS II DIV 2), but the orthodontist told me to get Invisalign because there’s not much price difference between the two. He lied to me that I'd get a comprehensive plan and fix my bite issues, but I ended up getting Lite. I thought he was giving discount or something cause he is pretty famous here.

My concern is this:

If I paid for what I was told was a Comprehensive plan, why am I holding a packet that says Invisalign Lite? If the treatment requires additional trays later, he could have order all at a time. after will I be charged again? cause i don’t trust him much

At this point I feel like I was promised one thing verbally and delivered something different. I have lost trust because the information keeps changing.

Has anyone else been told they were getting Comprehensive but later found out their aligners were labelled Lite? What documents should I ask for to verify exactly what Invisalign package was actually ordered?

I had braces around 4 years ago but only wore my retainers for about 1 month and then stopped completely. Over the years my bite became uneven again and now I have:
•jaw tightness/recess mandibular
•headaches/migraines
•neck & upper back pain
•body tightness/posture compensation feeling
•one side bite feels heavier
•narrow upper arch/palate feeling
I’m starting Invisalign soon with elastics/refinements planned. Could not wearing retainers after braces have caused my bite relapse and TMJD symptoms over time?
Did fixing my bite actually improve:
•TMJ pain
•neck/body tension
•headaches
•posture/tightness
Also what helped you the most:
•Invisalign/braces
•splints/night guards
•physio
•airway/expansion treatment
(I got these all symptoms)
anything else?
Would appreciate real experiences because this has been affecting me badly for months.
