The answer

"Clear aligners retain a quantity of water during rinsing, and this quantity exceeds the excusable amount. The user of clear aligners can remove and reinsert them, so it is necessary for them to remove them during fasting and reinsert them from sunset until Fajr prayer, or to remove them after each rinse and empty any remaining water from them."
