Cleaning Invisalign Aligners

Cleaning your Invisalign Aligners is similar to cleaning dentures, NOT! Most offices do not recommend using dentures cleaners on your aligners as they can damage the materials the aligners are composed of and make the aligners not so clear! Here are a number of recommended methods to clean Invisalign:

1. vinegar soak
2. hydrogen peroxide soak (50% water/50% hydrogen peroxide)
3. Listerine Whitening Pre-Brush Rinse
4. Retainer Brite Tabs, no sonic cleaner
5. Dawn dishwasher soap!
