Invisalign Success: All you need to know
• Wear trays all the time; 24 hours a day, all day, all night, eating, sleeping, except when cleaning your teeth or trays. Minimize sugar/acidic intake.
• Continue to wear trays, even in the rare instance if they break.
• If you lose your current tray, you must not have been wearing them. So, put on your previous tray and call us for further instructions.
• Bring all trays to each appointment. Never throw away any trays. Let us throw them away so there are no mix ups.
• Any lost attachment(s) will be replaced (if necessary) at your next appointment if needed, unless we have otherwise specied.
• Any gum irritation can easily be solved with the ortho wax supplied in the tray case. You can buy more from the pharmacy, if needed.
• While uncommon, if needed for some soreness Motrin/Advil/Ibuprofen can be taken if you can tolerate with any medication or medical conditions you may have. If unsure, call your physician.
• Avoid staining foods with yellow dyes: turmeric, mustard, mac & cheese, etc…
