Invisalign - sore throat

Question

I have been getting soreness in my throat (on left side only) and with swallowing. Painkillers help it does subside and isn’t constant. It does go into my ear. When l remove my aligners it reduces. I’m on week 1 tray 1 day 6. Going to see my dentist now so will also ask him. Just want assurances that l will adjust and it’s not going to be there for next 13 months!!

Invisalign aligners are trimmed so accurately to the crowns of your teeth, that it should cause any sore throat.  Now, it maybe something new in the mouth that your body is getting used to or you simply caught a cold at the same time when you started your invisalign.  That's good that you'll be seeing your dentist to make sure your Invisalign aligners are fitting correctly.
