<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\nThis is undoubtedly going to be a very exciting\ntime, however, as is the way with most orthodontic tools, it is worth noting\nthat the success of the aligner in straightening your teeth will depend on your\nadherence to the advice that we gave you, and the use of additional tools which\ncan help the aligner to be more successful.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
At\nClear Braces Direct<\/strong>, we have\nexperience in using clear aligners to straighten our patients’ teeth both in\nthe surgery and at home. And so, when it comes to the use of Invisalign London<\/a>, we know our\nfair share about how to best use this aligner and the accessories that can\nenhance its overall success at straightening your teeth.<\/p>\n\n\n\n So without further ado, in this article, we look\nat the most common accessories that you can use to make your treatment with Invisalign London<\/strong> more successful. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Chewies<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n First, we will start with the fact that when you\nhave your Invisalign London<\/strong> aligners made, they will be custom fitted to slot\nover your teeth throughout the process of realigning your smile. However, there\nhas been something of a trend with patients not placing the aligners correctly\nand there being air bubbles between the aligner and the teeth. This slows down\nthe entire process of realigning your teeth and can worsen misalignment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Chewies are made from a mixture of plastic and\nrubber and look quite similar to earbuds, except you put them in your mouth\nwhen you have changed between aligners, and you chew them to ensure that the\naligners are placed correctly against your teeth. They are reusable and helpful\nfor keeping the realignment treatment on schedule.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Puls<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n When you take your aligners out, it can be\ntempting to simply pull them off of your teeth. This can cause the plastic to\nwarp out of shape or become damaged, especially if you have long nails. Puls\nare designed to help you remove the aligners easily and quickly without causing\ndamage to their overall shape.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Cleaning crystals<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n This is self-explanatory, but if you wish to have\naligners that have had a bit more of a deep clean than simply rinsing them\nunder a tap, cleaning crystals can be used. They can ensure that your aligners\nnot only taste better, but that they are also free from bacteria that can cause\ntooth decay or gum disease. Aim to rinse your aligners twice a day for between\n15 and 30 minutes to see the effects of the cleaning crystals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Carry cases<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n It happens to almost everybody, but if you lose\nyour carry case when using this aligner, this can cause you to carry it\nincorrectly in your pocket or bag which can (you guessed it!) create damage.\nTherefore, it is wise to invest in additional carry cases which will help you\nkeep the aligner in one piece when you are out and about and not wearing it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n App<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n The main accessory that you will need to ensure the aligner is used correctly is the app that is downloadable to smartphones and will allow you to send photographs to our team once a week to show us how the aligner is working. The app is easy to use and can be downloaded in a range of languages to help you make the most of it, if English is not your first language. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" So, you have visited our team and been given the green light to go ahead with treatment to straighten your teeth with an invisible aligner.
