Teeth brushing is a fun activity now!

Yes, aligners can change your face shape slightly, mainly by changing the position and alignment of your teeth and, in some cases, your bite. But they don’t change your actual bone structure.

The first thing is to contact your provider and figure out if you can switch back to a previous tray or move to the next one. Losing your aligners while traveling can be stressful, but it does not necessarily mean your treatment will be disrupted. The most important thing is to act quickly. Look for your missing tray, wear your previous aligner if advised, and contact your provider for instructions on what to do next. In this guide, we’ll explain what to do if you lose your aligners while traveling, how a lost aligner can affect your treatment timeline, and what you can do to prevent it from happening again.

Building better habits during clear aligner treatment can help you stay consistent with aligner wear, oral hygiene, and your treatment plan. Simple routines, such as wearing your aligners as directed, cleaning them regularly, and keeping track of your wear time, can make treatment easier to manage and help you stay on schedule. In this guide, we’ll cover the most important habits during clear aligner treatment and practical ways to make them part of your daily routine.
