Type: article
Abstract: The pain perception among patients treated with fixed appliances over Invisalign aligners is of interest. Hence, a total of 75 participants were divided equally into 3 groups namely Group I - Invisalign, Group II - self ligating fixed appliances and Group III - conventional fixed appliance treatment. Perception of pain among patients was evaluated using a Visual Analog Scale (VAS) at 6 hours, 24 hours, 48 hours and 1 week. Patients treated with Invisalign aligners showed lower pain compared to fixed appliances.
