Is it normal to receive the attachments on the first day?

July 20th, 2010

Q.
I started my invisalign treatment few days ago. In my first day of wearing them I started to have very strong feeling of vomiting. I took them out for the night yesterday evening because even after I eat I had this strong feeling. My doctor already put 8 attachments on my teeth which makes me very uncomfortable without the trays. I signed the contract without giving me 5 minutes to read this. My doctor didn\’t explain me anything and I am not happy at all with her attitude. I already gave a lot of money and I don\’t know anything about what\’s going on. Yesterday I read on the Internet that usually it\’s not good to have in the first day the attachments for some reason. Is this true? What can I do? Can I change my doctor or can I choose another brace? Can I quit if I can\’t become used with this? I need to work and I need to live my life normally, my health is more important for me than this treatment I am waiting your answer. Thank you very much.,
