I wanted to ask if anyone here wears clear, orthodontic aligners.  My hyperthyroidism symptoms started last fall, around the time I began to wear aligners.  I just came across an article that says there may be a link.

Hi SuzeInSD,

No I haven’t. I found I had hyperthyroidism in March and will not see an Endocrinologist until July 31st.i did request an ultrasound and have 2 nodules. Are you wearing these aligners, and if you are, just what benefits are you getting from them?

i am interested in anything that may help.

Thanks

Hi, could you mention the title of the article? A quick search showed a lot of publications regarding the management of hyperthyroid patients wearing orthodontics.
