Normal to have sore teeth at random?

#1 Post by catteethidk »

I just notice I will, at random, feel soreness in certain teeth. Usually this is when I am eating or drinking, or when I touch the tooth in question. Is this normal, and just the teeth moving? Or does it sound like something to be concerned about? The sore tooth can vary from day to day, so I'm being optimistic, but I worry about cavitities. It's been a while since my last adjustment and it'll be another while since my next one.

It's completely normal, part of the charm of orthodontics. Best of luck to you!
