How do I get the yellow stains out of my Invisalign aligners? (Photo)

Question

How can I clean my Invisalign aligners? I ate a spoonfull of curry forgetting that I had my aligners in it has stained them quiet abit, I didn't realise it would stain this much as it was only a spoonfull. I do get a new aligners in six days but I am worried as now my teeth look yellow for this period of time. Anything I can use to move the dis coloration without damaging my aligners?

Hello Grace,I'm sorry to hear that you stained your aligners and unfortunately, it is very difficult to get curry stains out of Invisalign trays.  The trays are very porous and normal agents like bleach or peroxide do not work as easily to remove curry from plastic as they do removing curry stains from metal and other non-porous surfaces.Fortunately for you, you have less than a week before you change aligners.Sorry this has happened to you and good luck.
