Did you know that while 80% of Brits are confident enough to smile at people, 50% admit they don’t smile as much as they could do?
If your teeth aren’t very nice, you might feel self-conscious whenever you eat or smile. So this might put you in the category of people who wish they could smile more.
What’s great is there are plenty of teeth straightening options out there, including clear aligners (or clear braces).
Can you wear aligners at night though? Well yes, you can!
If you’re interested in our NightOnly Clear Aligners, then read on. We’ll give you a complete guide on our teeth straightening method!
Before we discuss what NightOnly Clear Aligners are, let’s first give you an overview of how our clear aligners work. You might also know these as “clear braces” or “invisible braces”. These are a great choice if you want to do teeth straightening without braces.
Clear aligners are custom-made to fit snugly on your teeth. You wear them for around 20 to 22 hours a day, which ensures that they slowly shift your teeth into place.
You don’t just wear one clear aligner though. Since your teeth are changing positions, you’ll have to swap out your clear aligners for new ones as treatment goes on.
What’s great about this type of teeth straightening is it’s not permanent. If you ever need a break, or you want to eat or drink something that might stain your aligners, all you have to do is pop them out. With things like metal bracket, ceramic, and lingual braces, you won’t have that convenience, as they’re permanently bonded to your teeth.
All of the aligner trays are made to fit your teeth as you progress in treatment, so make sure you never wear them for too short or too long. Always follow the treatment plan set forth by your provider to get the best results possible.
Another thing that sets clear aligners apart from the competition is there’s no need to visit an actual orthodontist. Everything is done online for your convenience!
Considering you have to wear clear aligners for up to 22 hours a day, you pretty much have to wear aligners at night, even with the regular daytime option. The best route to take is to just wear them all the time and only take them out briefly to eat, drink, or brush and floss your teeth. This ensures that you’re getting the most out of treatment.
For some, this might feel too restrictive. If this is the case for you, then know that there is a nighttime only option called NightOnly Clear Aligners.
With this type of aligner, you only need to wear the trays at night when you relax and go to sleep. We recommend wearing them for around 8 to 10 hours a night to get the best results possible.
Because you only wear the clear aligners at night, this does mean treatment time will be a little longer. But for many, this is worth it when they only have to wear the trays for half a day instead of a full one.
There are lots of similarities between regular and NightOnly Clear Aligners. With both, you’ll use convenient, comfortable, and clear trays to straighten your teeth. However, there are some noticeable differences between the two. These might sway you towards one or the other. Read on to find out what these differences are.
As you’ve already seen from above, you wear regular clear aligners for around 22 hours a day; this is pretty much all your waking hours plus your sleeping ones. Compare this with NightOnly aligners, which you only have to wear 8 to 10 hours a day.
This means you won’t have to worry about remembering to get your aligner whenever you take them out during the day, such as when you eat or drink. All you have to do is put them in after brushing your teeth, go to sleep, wake up in the morning, and take them out before you eat breakfast.
With NightOnly Clear Aligners, you’ll get the convenience of not only wearing the trays during the night, but also a shorter wear time. However, this does come with a caveat: you’ll have to spend longer wearing these aligners, as the daily wear time is cut in half.
For people with misalignments that aren’t so bad, this shouldn’t matter too much. The treatment time will be relatively short compared to everyone else’s anyway, so it might be worth it to opt for the convenience of NightOnly Clear Aligners.
In general, most of patients need to wear the daytime aligners for around 6 months on average. On the other hand, wearers for NightOnly Clear Aligners need about 6-8 months or more of treatment time.
As you already know, you don’t have to wear the NightOnly Clear Aligners for very long when compared to the daytime ones. But what are the other benefits you’ll get from wearing these aligners?
For one, you won’t have to worry about people noticing you have trays in. They’re already very discreet, but if you’re very self-conscious and worry about people seeing your aligners, then the nighttime option is perfect for you.
Also, it’s very easy to take care of your clear aligners. Simply rinse them with water and use the Daily Fusion Foam to clean them.
NightOnly Clear Aligners are definitely safe to use! As we’ve mentioned above, it’s practically a pain-free way to straighten your teeth. Plus, it’s very discreet, meaning no one will know you even have these trays in your mouth.
In addition, aligners are made from completely safe materials. It includes a BPA-free plastic, which means you won’t put your health at risk when you wear these aligners at night.
It’s very easy to use NightOnly Clear Aligners. When you come home from work or school, have your dinner, and brush and floss your teeth, simply take the aligner tray and press it to your teeth.
You can go about the rest of your evening and then go straight to sleep. When you wake up, you can start your morning routine and take the clear aligners out when you want to eat and brush your teeth.
Make sure you clean them with the Daily Fusion Foam every day. That way, you ensure your aligners are free of harmful bacteria.
Our nighttime aligners are good for people who are over 14 years old. If you have gaps, narrow arches, and/or crooked teeth, then you’re probably a good candidate for aligners. However, if they’re pretty severe, you might have to go with daytime clear aligners or other teeth-straightening methods.
