Hiya
I finished my last tray of Invisalign last year and was really happy with the results. My dentist thought I still needed more doing, so after much dithering I agreed to undergo refinements. After a few moths of the process I felt like my bite was changing and was really uncomfortable. For my teeth to sit together I feel like I need to pull in m lower jaw. It feels strange and mu jaw muscles ache, I have also been noticing I have been getting headaches. My dentist says I will get used to it but I am not sure. I have lost confidence in the process a little bit, I am wondering whether continuing witht he refinements is a good idea or should I demand new x-rays and additional treatment? help I feel really lost here.
I am sorry to hear that you are having problems. The best thing to do is to sit down with your dentist and see where the bite is uncomfortable. Some teeth may need slight adjustments to make th ebite comfortable. You may then need new impressions for final refinements.
Bites can change, but can also be adjusted to be more comfortable.
