Daughter Has Invisalign to Straighten Teeth - Having Trouble Removing Aligners

I have 4 buttons on the bottom...I start on the back of one side by popping it off of my molars with my thumb fingernail. Then I hold the aligner and pull it away from my teeth and up at the same time so that I get them up and over the buttons. I usually start from the right side (I'm right-handed) as I do this, and the left side pops right out. Tell her not to be afraid that she's going to pull too hard...it takes a little force to get them out, and I've yet to break my teeth, buttons, or aligners! Hope that helps!

What works for me is to 'pluck' from the inside back, so that the tray can be released from the outer buttons. In other words grab the tray with a fingernail by the inside molars. Do this on the other side and it'll pop right out. Good luck!

I do the same as the comment before me - get my fingernail under one side of the aligners right at the back and then pull up and out. The aligners and her teeth are alot tougher than she may think so don't be scared to use a bit of force. :)

thank you very much for all the helpful tips. I appreciate them. My daughter is having a much easier time getting them off.

i had the same problem, i actually broke one of my attachments the very next day they where put on. i have 7 on the bottom and 2 up top. i found that choosing the side of your mouth with the least attachments is the key to taking them off. pull on the chosen side to pop it off and gently pull {peel} it off from both the outside and the inside of your mouth. hope it works for you and good luck
