Tooth pain with Invisalign
Posted 10-14-2008 at 10:16 AM by Adam
Strange feeling in my tooth these past few days. I have a feeling in one of my top back teeth of pain. I have never had a cavity, any fillings or anything like that so don’t have anything to compare it too, but yesterday I was chewing gum (when aligners were out) and got a sharp pain in the tooth.
I don’t feel it when drinking cold water, or eating, just when I chewed gum. I have since done it again and the feeling came back, now when I bit down on my Invisalign trays when they’re in my mouth I can feel this pain a little bit there.
I am due to go see my Orthodontist next week, but not sure if I should wait that long. I have heard if you need any dental work you cannot have this until you finish your treatment. I hope there is nothing wrong because I don’t want to have to go through the next 8 months in pain.
Anyway, a short mini update, but will report back after speaking to him. I will also post some more pictures to see if there is any noticable change in the month I have been wearing them… A month already, time has gone fast!
Thanks for reading.

Talk to your orthodontist and hopefully he will be able to help you with the reason for this pain.
Is the tooth that's hurting, been doing any major moving? This can cause discomfort for some people, until the tooth settles in its new place. Wow ... one month already ... incredible!  |

Nope, it is a back tooth, and none of the back ones as far as I know are moving.
I will talk to him next week when I go in to collect my next aligners. Will be one month next week  |
