Soft/Medium type
It is suitable for tooth movement, however the aligners are very thin and may deform during long-term use.
Usage of deformed aligners may not achieve the planned movement, Therefore, It is advisable to consume 140 to 200 hours (7days to 10days) then change to medium type, and with the same frequency, please change to hard type.Another measurement to consider, is to confirm gaps/spaces between each teeth and aligners are none.
Please confirm the tooth surfaces fit to aligners as perfectly fit. This is also the timing to replace your aligner.
