You just got an aligner, now what?

First of all, congratulations on taking the first step towards a perfect smile - Get ready to feel good as you look good! 😉

We understand that you may have questions about how to properly care for your aligners - that’s why we've put together this comprehensive guide to help you navigate the ins and outs of using aligners.

How to make the best use

• CONSISTENCY IS KEY:

Follow your doctor's instructions and strictly wear your aligners for a minimum of 22 hours per day to achieve the best results.

• HANDLE WITH CARE:

Wash your hands thoroughly before touching aligners, and handle only one aligner at a time.

• PROPER USE:

Insert your aligners by wetting them and gently pushing them over your front teeth and applying equal pressure to your molars (back teeth) until they snap into place.

When removing them, use your fingertips to slowly ‘peel them away’ from your teeth, starting from the inner (tongue) side of your back molars.

• USE CHEWIES:

These can help seat your aligners properly for a uniform fit.

Simply place the chewie between your teeth and the aligner, squeeze down for about 30 seconds, and repeat.

This method should be done each time you get a new aligner for the first 3 days, at least 2-3 times per day.

• DAILY MAINTENANCE:

Clean your aligners daily with a soft-bristle toothbrush and water, and avoid using denture cleaners or soaking them in mouthwash. Remove your aligners before eating or drinking anything other than cool water, and remember to brush and floss your teeth before reinserting them.

• STORAGE:

Always use the aligner case provided in your starter kit to store your aligners when they are not in your mouth, and keep older aligners in a clean plastic bag as instructed by your doctor.

Avoid leaving them on surfaces where they could be easily lost or damaged, and be cautious of pets who may be tempted to chew on them.

• GETTING USED TO IT:

Initially, you may find it difficult to speak or experience extra saliva, but these issues typically resolve within a few days.

Things to note, just in case:

• YOU LOST AN ALIGNER:

If you have worn the lost set for 6 days or more, simply start the next set.

If worn for less than 6 days, go back to the previous set and call us for a replacement.

• YOU NOTICE A CRACK:

Handle them the same as lost aligners. There is a charge to replace lost or damaged aligners.

• AN ATTACHMENT FALLS OFF:

Please call us to schedule a repair visit.

Oral Hygiene with Aligners

Maintaining good oral hygiene is extremely essential for the success of your Invisalign treatment. Don’t forget to:

• REMOVE Aligners BEFORE Eating and Drinking:

Take out your aligners before meals and snacks, and brush and floss your teeth before reinserting them.

• REGULAR Dental Checkups:

Schedule regular dental checkups and cleanings to ensure good health of your teeth and gums.

By following these guidelines and practising proper oral hygiene, you can maximize the effectiveness of your Invisalign treatment and achieve the smile you've always wanted.

Understanding Invisalign: How Clear Aligners Can Transform Your Smile

Look forward to achieving the smile of your dreams with Invisalign clear aligners!

If you're curious about how this innovative orthodontic treatment can transform your smile,

you're in the right place.

What Sets Invisalign Apart

Invisalign clear aligners offer a revolutionary approach to orthodontic treatment, providing patients with a virtually invisible alternative to traditional braces.

Made from smooth, comfortable plastic material, Invisalign aligners are custom-designed to fit snugly over your teeth, gently guiding them into their desired positions over time.

The Treatment Process

Your journey with Invisalign begins with a comprehensive consultation with your trusted dentist.

During this visit, they will conduct a thorough examination of your teeth, perform radiographic examinations if needed, and capture a 3D digital scan of your smile using state-of-the-art technology.

This information is used to create a custom treatment plan tailored to your unique needs and goals.

Using advanced digital imaging technology, your dentist will show you a virtual representation of how your teeth will move throughout each stage of treatment, giving you a preview of your future smile.

On approval, a series of custom-made aligner trays will be created specifically for you.

What Invisalign Can Correct

Invisalign is capable of addressing a wide range of malpositioned teeth, including crooked teeth, overlapping teeth, crowding, and gaps between teeth.

Whether you're seeking minor adjustments or more extensive corrections, Invisalign can help you achieve the smile you've always wanted.

Comfort and Convenience

One of the greatest benefits of Invisalign is its unmatched comfort and convenience.

Unlike traditional braces, which can be cumbersome and restrictive, Invisalign aligners are removable, allowing you to enjoy your favorite foods and maintain your regular oral hygiene routine with ease.

Plus, the smooth plastic material ensures a comfortable fit, with minimal irritation to your mouth.

Affordability

The cost of Invisalign treatment varies depending on the complexity of your case.

However, many patients find that the investment in their smile is well worth it, considering the transformative results and improved confidence that come with a straighter smile.

We encourage you to schedule a consultation with our team to receive a personalized quote for your treatment plan.
