Aligner Chewies

Aligner Chewies

Aligner chewies are small, cylindrical aids made from soft, medical-grade silicone designed to improve the fit of clear aligners such as Invisalign or Angel Aligners. Patients gently bite down on the chewies after inserting their aligners to help seat them properly against the teeth. This action eliminates any air gaps between the aligners and the teeth, ensuring optimal contact. Proper seating is essential because it allows the aligners to apply consistent and precise pressure, which is necessary for predictable and effective tooth movement throughout the orthodontic treatment. Chewies are typically reusable and should be used regularly—especially when switching to a new set of aligners—to enhance the fit and maximise treatment results.
