You\u2019re close to getting or already wearing your clear aligners<\/a>. Whatever the case is, you\u2019re on your way to getting the perfectly straight smile you\u2019ve always wanted! However, many people sometimes experience difficulties taking their trays off. Read on to learn five simple steps to make removing clear aligners a much easier process!<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

Step #1: Stay Calm<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Often times the first step in a challenging situation is to relax. This is because the feeling of panic typically causes a task to be more difficult that it needs to be, which can make your aligners tougher to remove. By remaining calm and taking a deep breath, you can allow yourself the time and patience it takes until you successfully get them off.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Step #2: Warm Your Mouth<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Having a cold drink before removing your aligners can actually make it trickier! To ensure the trays are flexible enough to manage, you can try warming your mouth by either leaving it open or drinking lukewarm water. Avoid drinking hot liquids, however, as this can cause the aligners to warp and become damaged. It can also help if your fingers and mouth are dry.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Step #3: Begin at the Back<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

You\u2019ll want to first lift the aligners off your molars, gradually shifting towards the front. Some people even work on one side before lifting the other\u2014whichever method is easiest for you. Having attachments present can make removal slightly challenging, but you\u2019ll just need to hook your fingernails under the edge of your trays and lift.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Step #4: Try an Aligner Hook<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

There are convenient orthodontic tools you can buy online, like Pul Tools and OrthoKeys. These are designed for removing clear aligners by hooking under it and raising it off your teeth. They\u2019re also incredibly useful if you have attachments.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Step #5: Switch Aligners at Night<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Since you\u2019ll have to take your trays off more often during the day due to meals, it\u2019s best to switch to your new set in the evening. This is because you\u2019ll both sleep through the part where it\u2019s most uncomfortable and<\/em> your teeth will have been corrected by the time you wake up, making them much easier to take off.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

With these few tips\u2014along with some mild pain relievers\u2014you can be sure to experience a smoother process of removing and caring for your clear aligners. And if you still find difficulties along the way, you can always speak with your dentist for advice!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
