Hi Dr Kumar, My Invisalign Is Hurting Me Six Weeks Into Treatment, Is This Normal?

January 6th, 2014
Q.

Hi Dr Kumar. I was wondering whether you could help me or offer some advice. I don’t think Invisalign is working for me. I’ve kept the aligners in as advised by my orthodontist but they’re hurting so much. I haven’t taken them out apart from when I’m cleaning my teeth because the orthodontist advised me not to. But they’re honestly really hurting, I didn’t think the pain would be this bad. I’m only 6 weeks into it, my orthodontic said to expect discomfort but I find myself constantly taking pain killers, is this normal? Thank you for your time.

I Have A Lot Of Pain With My Invisalign Treatment, And I Keep Taking My Aligner Out Because Of The Pain. Please Give Me Advice.

October 28th, 2013
Q.

Hi. I’ve had nothing but pain since investing in Invisalign treatment. It just won’t let up and it gets worse, every time I have a new set of aligners. My gums look very swollen. My dentist has said that this is bound to happen and I did expect some pain but it’s honestly constant. I’m not being dramatic and I’ve tried painkillers but at the moment the aligners are out more than they’re being left in. Can you please give me some advice as to what I can do? I don’t have much time left but feel the treatment hasn’t really changed my teeth because as I said, I always have to take them out. I haven’t told my orthodontist this and I don’t know what to do. Thank you for your advice in advance! I’m really hoping you can help me.
