What To Expect During Clear Aligners Treatment 

© Dr Victoria Hong Trinh

What you may experience temporarily during clear aligners treatment

When you change to the next aligner trays

·      You may notice some discomfort in the gums around the teeth treated 

·      The teeth treated may be a little tender to chew on

This is expected as teeth are moving in clear aligners treatment.
This is on a reducing basis until the end of that tray.

·      You may notice sensitivity to hot or cold, food or drinks, on the teeth treated

·      Please let me know because

I can provide you fee free professional treatment to improve the sensitivity

·      Also, consider using Sensodyne toothpaste rubbed in to the gums and teeth that are sensitive

·     Consider using Sensodyne Rapid Relief toothpaste or Colgate Pro Relief toothpaste to brush and apply on the teeth, then no eating no drinking or 30 minutes after.

·      If needed, consider 1-2 Panadol or 1-2 Nurofen as required and warm salt water rinses

·      You may notice the above things for a little while

·      But this must be a reducing basis 

·      Please contact me via email if anything worries you

Please continue with the prescribed Oral Health Care

I aim to support you with personalised guidance and compassionate care throughout your treatment
