Q. Hi there, i wunderd if you can help me. i am thinking of having invisalign braces fitted for simple cosmetic change to crooked teeth and because they don’t need to move dramitically and because invisalign exirts gentle pressire, should i not expect to be in a lot of pain? I know that metal fitted braces can rele hurt so just wunderd what sort of pain to expect?,
A. All forms of orthodontics can be unconfortable for the first few days. The level of discomfort is subjective as each person tolerates pain in a different way. I always warn my patient they may have some initial discomfort for the first few days and the pain will ease off after the first week and to take painkillers if they needed.
