If you are a teen or adult who wants your teeth to be straighter, you may be a candidate for Invisalign clear aligners. Instead of traditional metal braces, Invisalign technology allows you to wear custom-fit clear braces to slowly move your teeth into the desired position. Not only are they nearly invisible, but you can also remove them to eat, brush, and floss.
What Are the Invisalign Care Instructions in North York?
Once you are fitted for your Invisalign clear aligners in North York, it will be important to care for them as your dentist prescribes. The care instructions are as follows:
- You must clean your Invisalign trays daily by brushing them in the morning and at night when you brush your teeth. Use a soft toothbrush and regular toothpaste. Do NOT use anything abrasive on them.
- When you take your aligners out to eat, you should rinse them to remove any bacteria that may have formed on them.
- Use the Invisalign cleaning crystals to soak your aligners each day for fifteen minutes. After soaking them, simply brush them off with your toothbrush.
- Always take your aligners out when eating or drinking so you don’t stain or damage them.
- To avoid losing your clear aligners, always store them in their case when you remove them. You don’t want to lose them or throw them away accidentally.
