Invisalign FAQs
Does Invisalign hurt?
When beginning to wear Invisalign aligners, experiencing some preliminary pain akin to a bruising sensation is expected. This pain typically arises as your teeth adjust to the mild pressure exerted by the aligners, just like muscular tissues adapting to a new workout routine at the gym. As your teeth frequently shift into their preferred positions, this soreness decreases over the years.
Additionally, at some point in the preliminary duration of wearing Invisalign trays, some people can also experience slight ulceration inside the mouth. This can occur because the clean tissues inside the mouth adapt to the presence of the aligners. While this discomfort is usually brief, speaking about any soreness with your orthodontist is essential.
Does Invisalign give me a lisp?
Usually no. Some people suffer from a lisp for an hour or so when the Invisalign tray is placed. They very quickly lose this. Sometimes its lasts for a day or two. It would be very rare for this lisp to stay during the whole of treatment.
How long will I have my Invisalign on for?
This really depends on how severe your misalignment is. Braces can be on for anything from just a few months to a few years.
Can my child have Invisalign?
Yes they can, however your child needs to be motivated to wear their Invisalign trays. Fixed orthodontics (wires) are more common for children, because they are more likely to lose their trays and not wear them for long enough.
