If you have been given Invisalign<\/a> attachments by your dentist, you likely already know that though the attachments themselves do not hurt, they can sometimes cause an increase in sensitivity due to the additional pressure on your teeth when your aligners are in. But what many patients don\u2019t know is whether it will hurt to have their attachments taken off at the conclusion of their treatment. Here\u2019s everything you need to know about what to expect from Invisalign attachment installation and removal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

What Are Invisalign Attachments?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Invisalign attachments are composite resin bumps that are added to specific teeth to help hold your aligners in place and ensure that your treatment is advancing properly and on schedule. They typically stay on your teeth for the duration of your treatment. They are painless to attach, though you may feel increased discomfort when advancing to a new set of trays, because they do make the tension increase.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Removing Invisalign Attachments<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Removing your Invisalign attachments is typically only done after your treatment is complete. Though they are discreet and tooth-colored, you should take extra care to keep them clean because they can become discolored and obvious if they stain.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Removing them is easy. Your dentist will simply use a drill to take them off, and then polish your tooth underneath. This is painless and does not injure the tooth, so no anesthesia is needed for the removal procedure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Do I Really Need Invisalign Attachments?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

If you are prescribed attachments, you needn\u2019t worry about it increasing the cost of your treatment, as your price is based on the complexity of your case. Thus, they will not add to the total, nor will eliminating them from your plan save any money. If they have been recommended, it is to help ensure that your treatment goes smoothly and on time. While they won\u2019t accelerate it, they can certainly help keep it from taking longer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Remember, if you have been prescribed Invisalign attachments, don\u2019t panic. This is a very normal part of many treatments and is done only to enhance your treatment and ensure that you receive the best possible results in the most efficient amount of time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
