Q. I am only a month into my treatment but my dentist has told me to start changing aligners every ten days rather than two weeks and he said this was becuase I have quite so many trays. Does this sound right to you? I am obvisouly happy that this will quicken the rate of my treatment but I don’t want a bad job doing here either,
A. I would prefer you to keep to 14 days, the teeth need time to move and if you rush them the aligners may stop fitting. If you change after 10 days and the new aligner seems too tight or poorly fitting I would continue with the original 14 day protocol.
