How To Clean Invisalign Retainer Brite. No more yucky retainer breath! Just drop a tablet into a cup of warm water, add your retainer, and in 15 minutes, your retainer is minty fresh and clean.
Rinse it thoroughly with warm water afterwards. Some invisalign users swear by these effervescent cleaning tablets, while others say it didn’t work as well as they had hoped. Simply soak them for 15 to 30 minutes before rinsing them and gently brushing them clean.
To sanitize the retainer, you can use lukewarm water and antibacterial dish soap.
You don’t need to soak it very long, so don’t use this cleaner overnight. In terms of doing no physical harm to your aligners (at least in regard to the copolyester component), the fact that the use of both this product and invisalign’s® crystals tested similarly is positive. Retainer brite is a tablet that fizzes and kills all of the bacteria on your retainer. You need to ensure you clean the wire gently with your toothbrush, as well as pass interdental brushes between your teeth to clean any plaque away.
