How can I properly use and care for my aligners?

Smile Aligner® is durable, but you’ll need to take care of it in order to get best results. To get the most out of your invisible braces, do the following:

  • Wear them as much as possible. In order to achieve best results, you need to wear your invisible teeth aligners for at least 22 hours a day. You can easily remove them to eat, drink, and brush your teeth. If your aligners start to feel tight and uncomfortable, it means that you are not wearing them long enough. And eventually you’ll end up paying more for new impressions and aligners.
  • Wash when you take them out. After you remove your invisible aligners, run them under cold water to prevent saliva from sticking on the plastic. Please do not use hot water or run them through the dishwasher. Heat can damage and warp your aligners.
  • Brush your teeth and floss them before you put aligners back in. After you eat, brush your teeth and put them back into your mouth. Remaining food particles can stick to your teeth and aligners, leading to the formation of bacteria and cavities.
  • Clean the invisible aligners with soap only and not with any detergent or toothpaste. Toothpaste can be abrasive and the plastic can scratch. The more your invisible aligners are scratched, the more noticeable they are for others.

How long do I have to wear the aligners?

Each treatment is tailored to your needs. You may only need to wear for a couple weeks or months or up to a year. The average treatment time is 6-8 months.

What if I lose my aligner?

You can simply put in your next aligner and ensure that you wear it for the remaining timeandcover up with additional two weeks.

How often should I change my aligners?

If you’re using the invisible aligners 22 hours per day as prescribed by our Orthodontist, you should change them on weekly basis. If you leave them out for a long time, we suggest you return to your best fitting aligners and wear them for a week and proceed as usual. We suggest that you set a reminder for every week on your phone so you don’t forget to change it.
