You passed the consultation stage, went through the x-rays, and now have the Invisalign trays with you. Without a doubt, you will now dedicate all your effort to having a new smile. However, before you get lost in your future gaze, it is important to understand how to properly take care of your Invisalign trays in order to have a smooth treatment process.
What Are the Benefits of Invisalign?
If you are looking for the modern and quickest way of straightening your teeth, then Invisalign trays are a perfect way. More than six million people can vouch for this experience. The secret is in the Invisalign trays. Clear aligners are crafted from an original thermoplastic material called SmartTrack. SmartTrack is a distinctive element that uses gentle force on your teeth to restore them to their preferred position. SmartTrack makes the Invisalign process work very fast. Invisalign is different from the old-fashioned supports, which could take about three years to have one's teeth in the desired position. However, with Invisalign, within 12 to 18 months, you can have your perfect, straighter, and new smile. At the Upper Hunt Club Dental Centre in Ottawa, we give you all the necessary trays and tools you require to have your desired smile back. However, by taking care of your Invisalign trays, you have the speculated results as quickly as possible.
Taking Care of Your Invisalign Trays
Less effort is required to keep your Invisalign trays clean and odour-free. The easiest and best means of caring for your Invisalign trays would be using the Invisalign clean-up system. The cleaning system includes a cleaning crystal and a tank. To clean the Invisalign trays spotless, fill the cleaning tank with some lukewarm water. Place the Invisalign tray in the lukewarm water and a sachet of cleaning sparklers and gently shake the combination. Place the lid on the cleaning container for about 15 minutes allow the Invisalign tray to soak. Before opening the cleaning tray, shake the bowl one more time, then take away the tray and rinse it with warm running water.
Your mealtime would possibly be the best interval to clean the Invisalign trays using the cleaning method. By so doing, you will have no problem ensuring that you wear the Invisalign for about 22 hours as recommended. It is also possible to clean the Invisalign trays using toothpaste and toothbrush. Brushing your aligners before putting them back will help you keep them odourless, clean, and transparent. Brush the tray after every meal. Regardless of the method you select, never clean your Invisalign trays using hot water. SmartTrack is strong enough to restore your teeth to the desired position; however, using hot water warps the plastic. This will result in the ineffectiveness of your trays. If you accidentally deform or damage the Invisalign tray, please contact us immediately.
Tips for Cleaning Your Teeth
Invisalign systems have the advantage in the sense that it is possible for you to remove the aligners as you brush your teeth or as you eat. This gives you an easier way to maintain and ensure that your oral hygiene is right as we continue working on their misalignment. But due to the way the Invisalign tray wraps around your teeth, you would require to be a little more careful with flossing and brushing. To take care of cavities and bacterial growth, we advise patients to be brushing their teeth after every meal. This is particularly significant if you drink or eat something that is likely going to stain your teeth. Things like cranberries or pasta sauce can stain the Invisalign too. You are probably going to lose all the Invisalign treatment discretion once you show a blue-tinted smile.
