Why and How to Clean an Aligner

Your aligners are your ticket to a perfect smile, but they only work their magic when they’re clean!

Why Clean Your Aligner?

  • Keep It Clear: Stains on your aligner can take the shine off your smile.
  • Stay Fresh: A clean aligner means no unpleasant odours.
  • Protect Your Mouth: Dirty aligners harbour bacteria that could lead to cavities.

How to Clean Your Aligner

  1. Brush Gently: Use a soft toothbrush and clear, non-abrasive soap. Skip toothpaste—it can leave scratches!#
  2. Soak Once Daily: place your aligners in a soaking bath or glass half-full with warm water and drop in a VITIS Effervescent Cleaning Tablets. Leave for 15 minutes, rinse under cold water, dry and ‘Volia’ your aligner is a free as day one!

Hot water is a big no—warp your aligner, and it won’t work as intended. Treat them like the VIPs they are.
