Your Carriere Motion appliance
Your new appliance may give you a little discomfort as it settles in over the next 3-5 days, take what you would normally take for a headache to controls this. You need to avoid hard and sticky foods to avoid breaking the Carriere bars.
Your clear retainer appliance should be worn 24 hrs per day except during meals, contact sports, swimming and cleaning. We recommend you keep this in a retainer box when it is not in the mouth to avoid loss and breakage. Do NOT wear the elastics without the retainer appliance being in place.
You should wear your elastics as close to 24hrs per day as possible. Take them out for meals, cleaning, contact sports and swimming. You need to change the elastics every 8 hours, after breakfast, at the end of the school or work day and before going to bed at night. Do NOT wear the elastics without the retainer appliance being in place.
If you have any problems or run out of elastics then contact the practice on: 01896 759331
