First, you should never avoid wearing your Invisalign trays for a day because you don’t feel like it. In fact, you shouldn’t even keep them out of your mouth for a longer period of time than is suggested. We know this might require just a bit of an adjustment process in the beginning but you will quickly learn to keep them in place, so you can expect success. The guideline? Wear them 20 hours to 22 hours a day. If you’re keeping trays off of your smile for more than four hours, you’re not promoting efficient, effective alignment.
Hopefully you just picked up on this detail. If you want that gorgeous, aligned smile within the estimated treatment time, wear those Invisalign treatment trays throughout the night while you sleep. When you skip, you slow the progress.
We need to monitor your Invisalign treatment and provide you with your next set of trays at the correct time. Don’t miss your visits! They’ll make sure you stay on track with your smile alignment.
