To care for your clear aligners, rinse them with warm water before and after wearing them. Brush them gently with a soft-bristled toothbrush and mild soap. Avoid using hot water or an abrasive toothpaste, which can damage the aligners.
Aligners should be worn for 20-22 hours per day, only removing them to eat, drink, brush, and floss.
Some discomfort is normal when beginning a clear aligner treatment, but most people find the discomfort to be mild and easily managed with over-the-counter pain relievers. As your teeth shift into the desired position, you may experience some mild soreness, but this typically subsides within a few days.
The length of treatment will vary depending on the severity of your case. However, most treatments last between 6 to 18 months.
Clear aligners can be an effective treatment option for most adult and teen patients, but they are best suited for mild to moderate cases of misaligned or crooked teeth. Your dentist can help determine if clear aligners are the right treatment option for you.
Clear aligners use gentle pressure to move teeth into the desired position. Each set of aligners is designed to shift the teeth a small amount, and the next set will continue the process until the desired result is achieved.
