Is there a tool I can use to help get my aligners in and out?

Q. hello! i really struggle with getting the aligners out, i don\’t have any nails to grip onto them and pretty chubby fingers, can i get a tool or something for me to help pry them out?,
A. There is a tool called an elastic director that you can get hold of from your orthodontist or you may be able to purchase them online. It is a small plastic removal hook to grip the edges of the aligner to help pull them out instead of using your fingers.
