Orthodontic aligners are an increasingly popular alternative to traditional braces for straightening teeth. They are clear, removable trays that are custom-made to fit your teeth. However, sometimes you may find that your tooth does not fit snugly into the aligner. This can be frustrating, but there are a few things you can do to make your tooth fit better.
One of the most important things to do is to make sure that your aligners are clean. Plaque and bacteria can build up on the aligners, which can make them less effective and can also irritate your gums. Be sure to brush your aligners regularly with a soft-bristled toothbrush and toothpaste. You can also soak your aligners in a denture cleaning solution to help remove plaque and bacteria.
