Did you know your Invisalign trays can double as whitening trays? 💎😁
Once you’ve finished your Invisalign treatment, the retainers we provide for night-time wear can also be used for whitening. Simply place whitening gel into the trays and wear them for half an hour, or as advised by your Dentist.
Also, when we provide Invisalign treatment, if attachments (the small white resin buttons) are needed, we don’t place them until your second tray. So, if you`re thinking about whitening early in your treatment, your first Invisalign tray can be used before any attachments are added!
Ask us at your next visit about whitening options during or after Invisalign.
