Frequently Asked Questions
Invisalign FAQs
Is Invisalign painful?
Invisalign does not cause true pain. You may feel mild pressure at the start, which indicates that the teeth have begun to move. This sensation usually subsides within a few days.
How do I know my treatment is progressing well?
Positive signs include gradual closure of gaps, straightening of the dental arch, and improved harmony between the upper and lower jaws.
Does Invisalign have any negative effects on the gums?
There are no negative effects on the gums, but any gum inflammation should be treated before starting treatment.
Does smoking affect the color of the aligners?
Yes. Smoking causes yellow staining on clear aligners, which diminishes their aesthetic advantage of being transparent.
