The Outie Tool is an apparatus and method for the efficient, safe, and hygienic removing of removable tooth positioning appliances such as aligners or other dental appliances from the teeth of a patient. The apparatus comprises a straight rigid barrel with a lever appendage on the proximal end for fully engaging and removing lower aligner and hook appendage on distal end for fully engaging and removing upper aligner. The apparatus solves all the problems of existing tools with a design that provides optimal safety, strength, and mechanical leverage force along with removal appendages that are sufficiently thin and strong enough to easily and safely position and engage under aligner and between teeth thereby eliminating potential injury to teeth, gums, or aligner.
