How to best maintain your Invisalign retainer?

Simply use a soft toothbrush and toothpaste and brush them daily! Do not use denture cleaners or mouthwash for cleaning your aligners. We encourage you to brush and floss after each meal but if this is not convenient simply rinse your mouth and run the aligners under warm water before placing them back in! Invisalign aligners can stain so it’s best to take them out if you are drinking anything other than water and remember to always place them back in the case provided so it doesn’t get lost or damaged.

Our experience with Dr Tim and his team was absolutely fantastic. Our family had a fair amount of work done and would highly recommend Preston Smiles to people who need a patient and experienced dentist to themselves and children especially. We trust them because they always gave us good advice to fix and protect teeth and the prices are definitely reasonable.

Mom had long-standing problems with her teeth which worsened over the past few years. After hearing good things about Dr Chiu at Preston Smiles from friends, I decided to book mom in for a consultation. Dr Chiu was thorough in finding the root cause of mom's discomfort, and was very patient at explaining things to mom in Cantonese. Other than his excellent scientific knowledge, I was also impressed by his effort in providing cost-effective treatment options. It took us two visits to restore mom's teeth, but mom has never complained about her teeth after that.

Dr Chiu (pronounced 'chew', and who tolerates the inevitable jokes with good humour) is my idea of the perfect dentist. He is extremely knowledgeable and takes the time to explain why I need work done and how to prevent problems in future. That leaves me best able to look after my teeth. In fact, now I think back on it, since my initial treatments to correct some longstanding issues, I've followed his advice and haven't needed anything but a routine scale and clean since. Speaks for itself, really. He is passionate and patient with his work to the point of fussiness, which for someone who pokes around in your mouth with sharp implements, is the right attitude to have. The clinic is well maintained and has a comforting atmosphere, and the reception staff are always friendly and accommodating.

Excellent experience. Dr Chiu is one of the most professional dentist I have ever had. He is willing to spend time to discuss my tooth treatment and patiently answer any questions I had with the dental procedures. The information he provided allowed me to make informed decisions unlike other dentists who would just tell me what I need (without telling me the consequences of the procedures). Definitely would recommend Dr Chiu to everyone.
