Q.
Hello Dr Raj. I hope you can help me. I have a question regarding the plastic Invisalign trays and what they are made out of. I am about 3 months pregnant and I just needed to know if there were any toxins in the plastic that can harm the baby? There’s not much I can find on the internet about the materials they use and whether they could be harmful. Any information you could provide me with would be really great. Thank you in advance for any consideration.

Hello and thank you for writing in, I’m only too happy to help. The aligners are made from medical grade polyurethanes and are not harmful to pregnant women and should therefore be safe and not cause any reactions or harm to you. Your dentist/orthodontist can help you with this as you go through it. If you would like any more information on Invisalign treatment you can find it through the pages on this website. I hope this information is helpful. All the best, Dr R Kumar BDSLDSRCS.
