Question

I have developed extreme pain after Invisalign. What should I do?

I have had Invisalgn for 13 months 6 weeks ago, and I developed extreme pain in my teeth. It's almost non stop, and the dentists say they do not know why it hurts. I went to several doctors, and I have seen a chiropractor lately on a regular basis. I would really appreciate any advice you might have. Thank you in advance.
