If you want to straighten your smile, you don\u2019t need to settle for metal brackets or wires. Invisalign<\/a> is a modern solution that can help you achieve aligned teeth discreetly. However, to achieve optimal results, you need to make sure that you are wearing your aligners for 22 hours each day. This may sound challenging on the surface, but there are steps you can take to simplify it. Here are some tips to help.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

Why Do You Need to Wear Your Invisalign for 22 Hours Per Day?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Invisalign uses a series of clear aligners to slowly shift the teeth to their rightful locations. Each aligner needs to be worn for a designated amount of time each day, usually for about two weeks. The treatment uses micro-movements to gently shift the teeth until they are all in optimal locations. The treatment only works when the aligners are worn, so aligners need to be worn for 22 hours each day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
