Noticable Spit Bubbles

#1 Post by GoingStraight »

Hey People! I'm new to this forum having just gotten my new aligners less than an hour ago. Thank god for the net and you people. I've read just about every string.

So I'm a bit freaked because there's very noticable spit bubbles between my teeth and the bottom of the aligners on both top and bottom. (Vanity is why I went with these over metal!)

Does anyone else have this problem and are there any remedies? Thanks!

Trying drinking water, which sort of irrigates between the teeth and the aligners. Also, the bubbles are likely more noticeable to you than others. I think that the bubbles are fewer as the aligners settle in and fit tighter. However, I don't think that you can completely avoid the bubbles.

My trays fit very closely to the ends of my teeth so there's not much room for spit bubbles. I noticed when I first put a new bottom tray in it doesn't sit well until the next day. Maybe that's what you experienced???

I thought I had a big spit bubble on one of my teeth then I realized that was one of the attachment thingies. I just got my invisalign on yesterday so I'm new to this too. And like you said thank God for this website and the members. :wink:
