How to Fit and Remove Clear Aligners

How to Fit and Remove Clear Aligners

    Wearing Your Aligners:

  • Prep the Aligners: Rinse your aligners with cool water before insertion.
  • Align and Insert: Position the aligner over your teeth, starting with your front teeth, and gently press it into place.
  • Secure the Fit: Use your fingers to apply pressure at the back molars, ensuring the aligners are completely seated.
  • Final Adjustment: Use chewies to achieve a snug fit against your teeth.

    Removing Your Aligners:

  • Begin at the Back: Start with the back molars, using your fingers or the aligner removal tool.
  • Lift and Remove: Carefully lift the aligner from the molars and gently pull it forward, away from your front teeth.
  • Clean and Store: Rinse the aligner with cool water before placing it back in its case.

    Important Reminder:

  • Never use hot water to clean your aligners, as it can distort the plastic. Always keep your aligners in their protective case when not in use.
  • Upon Receiving Your Package: Inside, you'll find several sets of aligners, each individually packed and labeled. Follow the sequence and wear each set in the order specified in the included manual.

Using Chewies: A Step-by-Step Guide

    Instructions for Effective Use:

  • Check the Fit: Before using chewies, make sure your aligners are correctly positioned on your teeth. Insert the chewie between your teeth, choosing either a vertical or horizontal position based on your comfort. Remember to bite down without swallowing the chewie!
  • Bite and Position: Gently bite down on the chewie for about one minute, starting from the back of your mouth and working your way forward. This action helps remove any air gaps, ensuring that your aligners fit snugly.
  • Hold and Repeat: Keep each bite for a minimum of 5 seconds before shifting to the next spot. Aim to repeat this process for 5 to 10 minutes to ensure your aligners are securely seated.
  • Focus on Problem Areas: If you notice any loose sections, pay extra attention to those spots with additional bites. For optimal results, use chewies twice a day—once in the morning and once at night—especially when transitioning to a new aligner tray.

    Important Customer Reminder:

  • Make sure to use chewies every day to achieve the best fit, particularly after starting a new set of aligners.

    Helpful Tip:

  • To maintain hygiene, replace your chewies regularly to avoid any bacteria buildup. After each use, clean them with warm water and gentle soap.
