Maintaining your clear aligners is simple and easy. We recommend the following tips:
Rinse your aligners with lukewarm water every morning and night. Avoid using hot water as extreme temperatures can alter the shape of your aligners. Use a soft-bristled toothbrush and an antibacterial soap to prevent bacteria from building up.
Brush and floss after meals before putting your aligners back on. This can prevent food debris from becoming trapped in your teeth or in the aligner.
Remove your aligners before eating or drinking anything other than water. This can prevent them from becoming stained. Avoid drinking hot beverages with your aligners as they can cause your aligners to become misshapen and set back your treatment time.
To keep your aligners clean make sure to soak them at least once a day and rinse before use.
