Is wearing Invisalign in Vancouver uncomfortable? This depends on your threshold for pain. Some people might find it uncomfortable but those who have gone through more painful treatment such as the use of traditional braces might find it better.
You can try these tips to minimize discomforts during the first few days of wearing Invisalign in Vancouver:
\Just power through it.
There’s no easy way to get used to it. You really just need to wear it so that you will get used to the feeling of having the aligners in your mouth. It is recommended to wear the aligners for more than 20 hours a day.
Use a warm compress.
Dip a clean towelette in warm water and dab it on your gums. It has a soothing effect and can help improve the circulation of your gums. This can reduce the strain and soreness after wearing your aligners for a whole day.
Distract yourself.
Try to distract yourself from the initial discomforts. It will go away after a day or two as your mouth get used to the aligners. But in the meantime, you can try reading books, watching your favorite shows, or doing anything that will take your mind off of the discomfort.
If you truly can’t take the pain, your dentist from Ace Dental Centres can recommend a good painkiller. You can use the painkiller until your teeth have settled. It’s a temporary problem and after a while, you can wear your aligners without feeling any discomfort.
