OK, yes, the flavor could be better, I agree, but it's not the worst and it goes away rather quickly. Now, onto the good stuff- let's just say I hadn't been sticking to the rule of "take retainers out when drinking anything other than water" as closely as I should and definitely had been sneaking sips of iced coffee, diet Pepsi, and beer because I didn't want to take them off... my clear aligners were getting kind of yellow, even though I was brushing them every time I took them off. From the first time I soaked them in this stuff they went back to their original, clear glory! Granted, I did soak them for the whole 12mins. I've been using it on my aligners before snapping them in twice a day to whiten and soaking them once a day to clean. As a cleaner it works wonders, I don't really find my aligners to be discolored nor do I have the need to brush them (however, I still do). As a whitener, it works slowly. I feel no discomfort or sensitivity with my teeth from this solution, just happy to have clear, clean aligners! Will definitely buy again and recommend! Read more
I’ve tried several different cleaner/whitener foams to use with my Invisalign trays and this one is my favorite. I know some other reviews said the taste is bad, but I find it to be more fresh tasting than others that are too sweet because of the added sucralose. It cleans trays and teeth well, though the whitening effect is a little more slow than I expected. Good product! Read more
I really like this product. I regularly brush my Invisalign’s clean, and use this as a final step. It leaves my retainers feeling clean and has a pleasant minty taste for the next few hours. As far as whitening, it “seems” to do something, however since I use this twice a day, and brush my teeth far more (up to 4x a day because of having to clean after any snacks with the Invisalign) it’s hard to attribute any whitening to this product vs the requenxu of brushing teeth.

This product works well keeping my retainer clean and clear as well as slightly whitening my teeth. Only downside is the taste but you get used to it. Read more
I shake up the bottle, put it on the invisalign, brush it off in 5 minutes and I'm ready to go. The invisalign stays clean, takes off any stains but the taste is not good so make sure you brush ALL of the products off. Read more
Whitening is fine I would say it helps whiten, but it tastes horrible Read more
I use this Alightner Foam nightly in my retainer (and my aligner trays when I was doing the active orthodontic correction). I like getting them from this seller because it's cheaper than the orthodontist and it ships promptly. The mixture is largely hydrogen peroxide and is pretty mild in terms of taste - it doesn't have the 'flavored' feel of a mouthwash but it's easy to get used to. Bonus points for helping out a bit with morning breath! Read more
My orthodontist included a bottle of Alightener Foam with my first set of Invisalign trays. I use the foam every night with the Invisalign trays. I don't really notice any difference in the foam keeping my teeth white, but since it was recommended by my orthodontist, I use it religiously. Surprisingly, I seem to run out of the foam more quickly than expected. It is better to buy at least two bottles to start so that you can order more when you start the second bottle. This way you won't unexpectedly run out of the foam. And no, I do not work for the company that makes/sells Alightener Foam. My advice is purely practical. If you are already spending a lot of money on Invisalign trays, then the extra expense for the teeth whitening foam won't make much difference financially. Read more
