Hey. I'm currently using invisalign, and they actually are not much slower than braces, mine is only a month longer and I had horribly messed up teeth. Invisalign is not painful at all, you feel alot of pressure when you first switch trays, but not pain. I had one tray that hurt a little bit, but it doesn't hurt if you take it out so I just removed it for a little while and I was fine. I'm 14, by the way. A few other things you should know are:
You do have to take them out to eat and drink, it's sometimes a pain, but it really is no biggie if you have some place to put them. (I'm in marching band and sometimes I cant find a place to put them after performances).
You don't have to brush your teeth after each meal, they tell you too, but if you keep a pack of sugar free gum like trident or stride, and chew a peice after each meal, it's fine.
You need to brush them at least every other night to keep them clean. It takes about 10 minutes to do it, which can be a pain if your really tired, but other than that it's not biggie.
Sometimes a tray will cut into your lip, but if that happens, just a take a nail file and file the edge, problem solved.
If you have anymore questions, feel free to e-mail me. I actually love answering them, because to me, invisalign is 50x's better than braces. (most people who don't like them, couldn't have them).Health Question & Answer

you have to visit your orthodontist more often, you have to take them out to eat and you have to brush them. i like the traditional braces, you can go months with out having to sit in waiting room all the time.-blureyHealth Question & Answer
