“Today marks the start of my orthodontic journey!”
Many patients who begin clear aligner treatment for the first time arrive with a hint of nervousness.
However, after putting on their aligners, most leave with a smile, saying:
“It’s more comfortable than I expected!” ✨
💬 Common feedback on the first day includes:
“There’s a bit of tightness, but I think I’ll get used to it soon.”
“Since it’s nearly invisible, I don’t feel self-conscious at work.”
“I think I can really stick with this!”

📌 Key Points and Advice for the First Day
It’s normal to feel some discomfort at first, but it will gradually fade as you get used to wearing the aligners.
To help ensure a smooth start to your orthodontic journey, please keep the following tips in mind:
✔️ Wear your aligners 20–22 hours a day
Only remove them for meals and brushing. Making it a habit is key.
✔️ Always store aligners in their case when removed
Wrapping them in a tissue may lead to accidentally throwing them away!
✔️ Brush your teeth and lightly rinse your aligners after meals
Keeping everything clean helps prevent cavities and bad breath.
✔️ If you experience strong pain or discomfort, don’t hesitate to contact us
There may be a need for adjustments, so please feel free to reach out anytime.
