Your Invisalign Teen<\/a> aligners have been delivered and now you\u2019re on your way to a great smile. An important issue for you now is: How do I clean my Invisalign aligners?<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Proper cleaning is essential for keeping your Invisalign aligners<\/strong> invisible and odour free.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Here\u2019s Crotty Orthodontic’s list of Do\u2019s and Don\u2019ts to keep your aligners in great condition<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Do:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

  1. Rinse your aligners every time you take them out.<\/li>
  2. Soak your aligners in denture cleaner every day.<\/li>
  3. Brush and floss after every meal- you don\u2019t want food trapped between your aligners and teeth.<\/li>
  4. Use an anti-bacterial mouth wash.<\/li>
  5. Brush your aligners gently to remove any food or plaque.<\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n

    Don’t<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

    1. Don\u2019t clean them with toothpaste- that can dull them.<\/li>
    2. Don\u2019t clean with coloured soaps, they can stain the aligners.<\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n
