Do spacers in the teeth hurt?

Getting spacers put in your teeth typically doesn't hurt, as the process is non-invasive and doesn't involve any drilling or injections. Spacers work by gently pushing your teeth apart to create space for proper alignment. During placement, you might feel some mild pressure or tightening around your teeth, but any discomfort should be minimal and subside quickly. In case of any lingering discomfort, pain relievers can be taken as prescribed by your dentist to manage any temporary sensitivity.
