Aligners

Congratulations on getting started with your clear aligner treatment with Austin Orthodontic Arts. These aligners are custom made just for you. They are removable, nearly invisible and a great option for discreet treatment. You're going to change them every one to two weeks as prescribed by the doctor, and you're going to wear them daily for twenty to twenty-two hours.

You can eat whatever you want simply by removing your aligners prior to eating. While out you can brush your aligners with the soft bristle toothbrush and cool water along with brushing your teeth and flossing if you have the chance between each meal.

Should you lose an aligner or one becomes damaged, don't worry. Simply give our office a call and we'll be happy to guide you through the next steps to take as we're here to support you through all of your aligner journey.
