I'll give you some tips. 1- Best relief is keeping ice cold water in your mouth specificaly wherever is most itchy. Huge relief!!! 2- Pick a side and pull them out from the inner-side of your mouth on your wisdom teeth, and it easily peels off of your teeth. 3- Try to keep ur upper and lower jaw seperated, the less ur trays touch each other, the less u feel ur teeth. I know it is kind of tough but by biting ur trays u make ur teeth and gum more alert and sensitive against pain. Not letting ur trays touch each other helps pretending that they r not there. 4- In my case, on the 4th day (after the 3rd day of teeth, jaw and head aches) I realized it started to cause more pain to not to have them on. So try to keep them on as long as u can. 5- Don't try to give your teeth a moment of relief by taking your trays out even for one second because your teeth lean more on going to where they were rather than stay where they r. So you would cause urself longer periods of pain in return of a second of relief. Peace ✌️ I hope ur experience is less painful and annoying than mine.

My mouth has been dry and irritated from the start. Lips are always chapped. I've just had the worse experience so far. The only reason Im pulling through is cause I paid so much for this agony. My doc is really pleased with my progress though😁. Thanks dr Bailey for the informative videos💖

@brendarowe984 3 года назад

I am 59 and just got Invisalign. I am on day 5 and the pain is not joke. Dentist said to take Tylenol instead of Advil because Ibuprofen can impede the movement of the teeth. Tylenol is not even touching the pain. So I take the Tylenol, then about an hour later I just take 1 Advil and I have been using warm compresses on my face. Supplementing with the Advil is the only way I can stand it and the only way I can sleep. Good news is - if it's hurts it must be working, that's what I tell myself lol

I am on tray 2, weekly changes. The first week was horrible. Probably by day 6 it was getting better. I heard that the longer you keep the aligners in, the quicker the pain passes, so I got minimum 22 hours a day. Changing into my second tray I was petrified that I would experience the same pain, but it was just slight soreness. Hopefully it continues in the same way.

Pain, soreness, and general discomfort are all normal symptoms. I would recommend Tchakowski Balm. It is oily and contains vitamin E and propolis, which helps in healing those nasty canker sores. I am wearing my fourth tray, and I have never felt more teeth discomfort in my entire life. Just keep wearing the aligners. It will get better. 😀

I realized my teeth reverted due to me not wearing my retainer so years later they shifted back. Well i put my trays back in thankfully i only have to do 7 top and 11 bottom. One thing i remembered the dentist telling me to do was keep my trays thank goodness i did.. Once i finish this time I'm wearing my retainer the full year no joke. Plus as you mentioned every few days. I had no idea how important this step was as i only had very little shifting of my teeth and thought they wouldn't revert. Well, I'm no longer in pain thank goodness I'm on day 4 tray 1. I'll keep them in 14 days and switch to the next trays. Your videos have been very very informative.. thank you

Why do people think Invisalign will be less painful? Because Invisalign themselves actually claim this in their advertising. It's really disingenuous. I would still have done Invisalign anyway had I been properly informed, but I don't think it's fair to mislead customers only to have them be so unprepared for first week of pain that they question of they've made a terrible mistake. Thank you to Tray Minder for being so open and informative about all things Invisalign. It's very reassuring to know my experience was normal and not something to worry about.

@TheDragonsLotus Год назад

I just started my first tray yesterday, I really only have pain when I take them out to eat and my teeth hurt during eating and when I put them back on for just a bit. With my Invisalign trays my dentist has to do an IRP every time I go in to get the next 4, which I didn't have to have numbing of any kind for the first one.

@momo-no4sg Год назад

i just started with my 1st tray but it doesn't hurt at all. I think it's because my orthodontist insisted that i start with zero alligners. when i first started wearing zero alligners, it hurt a lot. i wore it on and off (because zero alligners does not move your teeth) but i got used to it after a week. Only then my orthodontist got my attachments in and started my first tray. My teeth are sore but not painful. still have 15 trays to go

I have clear correct aligners, and I have noticed an ulcer/canker sore developing on my bottom jaw between the inside of my bottom lip and my gum on that little piece of skin. It is very painful and I think it is caused by my tray digging in slightly. What would you recommend doing? I have tried to file/trim the tray but I am scared of going to far and affecting the trays ability to move my teeth!

@TrayMinder 2 года назад

Generally speaking, trimming the aligner with scissors is helpful to make the area more comfortable for you. Be sure to contact your orthodontic office and ask what they recommend. Hope you feel better soon.
