What happens if I wear my Invisalign tray for 30 minutes less a day? (Photo)

Asked By:Justhavefaith in Melbourne, Victoria, Australia
I've been very good with wearing my Invisalign trays for 22 hours a day. I'm on my first tray out of 21 total trays and I have to wear them each for 2 weeks. Yesterday I wore it for abit less than 22 hours. I wore for 21.5 hours so half an hour less. Would it affect the treatment if I did that occasionally (say 6 times in that fortnight) so it's only a total 3 hours less altogether for that tray? Or does it have to be exact but the minute.

Hi there,You should contact your treating dentist as soon as possible. They can order an additional tray and may want to make you some temporary retainers until it ships in. Your teeth will relapse very quickly without anything on them right now so you should address this quickly.Good luck!
