With orthodontics in general, including clear aligner treatments, there will be a high chance of discomfort or pain.  Don't worry, this is normal, but don't torture yourself.

As far as taking pain relievers, you can absolutely mitigate the pain with an over the counter product. However, you should stick with acetaminophen (like Tylenol). 

It's been found that ibuprofen (like Advil) can reduce the amount of movement, so please stay away from that. 

Please, if you have any questions, please contact support@orthosnap.com - we would be glad to help.
