- Always Use the Case: Put aligners directly into their protective case during lunch or snack breaks at school to avoid loss.
- Rinse & Clean Daily: Gently clean aligners using a soft toothbrush and cool water every night.
- Brush Before Re-inserting: Brush teeth after eating before putting aligners back in to keep teeth clean and aligners clear.
