An apparatus and method for storing and transporting an orthodontic appliance. The apparatus comprises two halves, specifically a top portion and a bottom portion. The top portion is joined to the bottom portion to substantially form a pocket. The top portion and bottom portion also comprise a zipper for temporarily binding the portions together and for closing and opening the pouch. Both the top portion and bottom portion comprise a soft padded surface disposed along their interior so that when the zipper is actuated, the pouch forms a soft interior pocket for an orthodontic appliance. The pouch further comprises a wrist strap. The wrist strap allows the user to strap the pouch to their wrist and carry the orthodontic appliance inside in a safe and sanitary manner.
