5 Tips to Keep Your Invisalign Clear Aligners Clean
Many of your Perth neighbours elect to have some form of cosmetic dental work to correct a crooked smile. With today’s advanced technology, there are multiple options available. At the Smile Design Studio, we offer the popular orthodontic procedure, Invisalign. Invisalign is a proven cosmetic dental procedure that corrects the orientation of your teeth through multiple sets of almost invisible plastic aligners. Each aligner is slightly tighter than the last and gradually moves your teeth into the desired alignment. Whenever you come in to see us for your scheduled check-up, we’ll check the progress of your teeth. We know how much they should be moving and what the final result will look like. Your aligners are nearly invisible to all but the closest observers, so your teeth will get nice and straight without becoming insecure about how you look as you might with traditional braces. These clear aligners are smooth so that they don’t rub against your cheeks and gums when you’re wearing them.

Don’t forget to clean your own teeth as well every morning and before going to bed. Don’t use toothpaste when you brush your aligners because it could end up scratching the plastic material. Use a soft toothbrush with plenty of water and liquid soap and gentle movements whenever you clean your aligners. Put Aligners on Clean Teeth Whenever you take your aligners out to eat or drink, please clean your teeth before putting them back in. Bits of food and bacteria...
