Most of the times, people describe this discomfort or pain as the pressure felt as their teeth are moving into their new position. In most of cases, people experience discomfort when they start treatment and when switching to new aligner set. The reason you feel this is because your mouth is not accustomed to this new shift and it can be uncomfortable initially but once you are used to with it, it gets normal.
