How Long Do I Wear Each Invisalign Tray? (photo)

Wear each tray for its recommended 2 weeks. Even though most, if not all, of the teeth movement occurs in the first few days, it's important to allow the important dynamic activity in the bone around these teeth to have sufficient time.

Wear each tray for a minimum of 20-22 hours per day. If you leave them out for more than four hours, allow an extra day to the length of time to wearing that particular aligner tray.

Change to your next aligner tray before bed instead of morning. This allows the tray to "settle in" making it easier to take in and out the next day.

Keep your aligner trays clean and while cold beverages can be taken during wear, warm beverages can distort form and fit.

Thanks for providing the photos, and congratulation for taking care of your teeth, it shows your effort. We tell our patients to wear each aligner or tray for two full weeks, all the time and to take them out for eating only. If a patient did not wear a tray for at least 20 hours a day, we recommend to wear it for another day, but because patients wants to keep moving forward with  treatment , this rarely happens. By the second week you might feel no pressure at all, but you have to wait for the surrounding bone around the root of the teeth to remodeled around the new movement. Keep it up !

Invisalign is recommended to be worn for 2 weeks, for at least 22 hours a day.  If worn that way Invisalign is very effective.  I would not wear them longer as it appears that your teeth are moving very well.
