I am worried about the pressure of braces on my teeth, is Invisalign a good option?

October 26th, 2011
Q.

how much pressure does invisalign put on the teeth? I had braces when I was younger that were fixed and i have never felt pain like it. I stuck with them for a month but then could not take it any longer and had to have them out. I am now 30 and would really love to have a decent smile, but i have been put off for years by the thought of all that pain again! I though id ask about invisalign, just as it isn’t a fixed brace, so i was hoping that it wouldn’t be as painful. Am i right in thinking this, or are there any other braces that would be even gentler? Im not worried about how long it takes as long as it gets done.

thank you doctor

Q.
I\’m not feeling any pressure on my teeth with the aligners in and it\’s been like this for some time. My orthodontist said it should be like this because I only have a mild case that needs to be treated but i\’m not sure, is this right?,
