Step-By-Step Procedure To Put A New Invisalign Tray In

Posted by Ladera Orthodontics on November 11th, 2020

So, you have been wearing your old Invisalign tray for a while and now it is time to stick the new one in. In case you have forgotten how to do it, or you are confused, then don’t worry. To make it easier for you, we have compiled a step-by-step procedure for putting a new Invisalign in Rancho Mission Viejo tray.

Step 1: Take the old Invisalign tray out

First things first, take the old Invisalign tray out of your mouth by reaching behind the back

of the tray and apply pressure on it until the tray pops out. In case, the tray is stuck in your teeth, then you can remove it by taking the tray out simultaneously from both sides. To do this, just reach with both hands and take hold of the tray from the back, then apply enough pressure until both sides pop out.

Step 2: Brush your teeth

Always remember to brush and floss your teeth properly before sticking a new tray in. Additionally, you can also rinse your mouth with mouthwash for a more refreshed feel.

Step 3: Rinse the new tray

Now, open the package containing the new Invisalign in Laguna Niguel tray, and

properly rinse the tray with water. Alternatively, you can also use “cleaning crystals” for

cleaning the trays properly.

Step 4: Fitting

If the Invisalign in Rancho Mission Viejo trays are too tight, simply wear the previous trays for a day or two more. It is highly recommended to avoid wearing tight trays as they can

potentially cause root damage. Now, an easy way to check if the trays properly fit or

not is by checking how easily you can take the trays in and out of your mouth. Though, always remember, the new trays generally hurt a bit. So, as long as the trays do not hurt too much it is perfectly normal to wear them.

Step 5: Treat soreness

The Invisalign trays usually hurt a bit for the first few days. Though, in case you are feeling heightened discomfort and soreness, then here are some quick relief tips:

1) Suck on ice cubes to numb the pain.

2) Hold a loin cloth close to the face to relieve the pain significantly.

3) Massage jaws, gums, and the mouth area for better circulation and reduced pain.

4) Try to consume only soft foods like pasta or soup. As the pain is usually much less when soft foods are consumed.

Step 6: Appointment with an Orthodontist

In case the pain or discomfort persists after sticking the new trays in. Then, consider taking over-the-counter medicine, to help relieve the pain or consult an orthodontist at the earliest.

In case you are planning to improve your smile with the Invisalign in Laguna Nigueltreatment. Then, consider contacting Ladera Orthodontics today.
