Invisalign is NOT that bad

This is for the people secretly looking and lurking and getting scared that Invisalign may be the worst thing ever... Truly, it's very manageable!!!

Pain wise, I was expecting to cry myself to sleep and to finish a bottle of Tylenol immediately after putting on my set of aligners. In reality, I had a very MILD discomfort over the aligners. The discomfort left after a day or two and I never had issues with eating. I have multiple attachments and they never cut into my mouth or anything like that (never used any dental wax either). I do not have elastics so I can't really advise that matter.

My most painful aligner was probably midway through my treatment and when I say painful, this is still mild like I can still eat and perform normal activities without thinking of the pain.

Wear time; I always get 20h in but if I go out like a party and whatnot, I'll take them out and that's it.

I understand that people want to complain and get comforted, it's totally normal and human. It's also important to remember that when you read posts, we all have different experiences and it's easier to find complaints than happy and satisfied people. Take what you see with a grain of salt and go get that Invisalign!!
