Invisalign in East Vancouver

Invisalign is not typically painful but can make a person’s teeth feel sore. Invisalign clear aligners are an orthodontic treatment, so when you first wear your aligners, your teeth may feel them exerting slight pressure. This same temporary soreness occurs when a dentist tightens or adjusts traditional braces. 

While Invisalign clear aligner trays are smooth plastic, they still reposition your teeth into alignment with carefully applied tension. Discomfort from your new clear aligners may last for a few days.

Patients wear a new set of Invisalign aligners every two weeks, so each time you start wearing a new set, you may expect some degree of short-term discomfort. Over time, your teeth get accustomed to the aligners, and the soreness eventually subsides. 

If you experience persistent pain during treatment, we welcome your call. Dr. Jason Liu and our team can assess your situation and offer treatment for your discomfort.

Do you have crooked, overlapping, or gapped teeth? If so, Invisalign clear aligners may be the solution for your smile.

Wearing traditional braces isn’t the only way to achieve a beautiful smile and straight teeth. Transforming your smile has never been so easy with the help of Invisalign. Invisalign is a series of clear, thin, and nearly invisible alignment trays that are custom-fitted to effectively re-align your teeth over time.

Research shows that crooked or misaligned teeth can affect everything from your oral health to your confidence in daily life. At Alta Dental Studio, we believe patients deserve a clear understanding of these impacts and the modern solutions available to help.

Oral Health Risks

Crooked teeth can create real challenges for maintaining oral health. When teeth overlap or tilt, they create hard-to-clean areas where plaque and bacteria can accumulate. Over time, this can lead to:

• Cavities and Tooth Decay — Brushing and flossing are less effective on or around hidden surfaces.
• Gum Disease — Crowded teeth increase the risk of inflammation, bleeding gums, and periodontal issues.
• Abnormal Wear and Strain — Misalignment places uneven pressure on the teeth and jaw, leading to premature wear, grinding, or discomfort.

Straightening the teeth helps improve function, make daily hygiene easier, and reduce the risk of these long-term issues.

Reduced Confidence and Social Impact

Misaligned teeth can influence how one feels in social or professional settings. Many patients report avoiding smiling or feeling self-conscious about their teeth.

Improving alignment can support:

• Boosted Self-Esteem — A straighter smile often encourages patients to feel more comfortable and confident.
• A Brighter Look — Well-aligned teeth can help create a balanced, welcoming appearance.
• Refreshed Smile — Aligned teeth are easier to clean at home with routine brushing and flossing, which contribute to fresher breath.
