DON’T MAKE THESE MISTAKES WITH YOUR INVISALIGNS

Playing With Your Invisaligns Invisalign braces feel strange at first, and you might unconsciously send your tongue to investigate the strange new device that’s taken up residence atop your gums. However, the hard edges of the plastic material may leave your tongue scratched up if you investigate a little too thoroughly. Also, avoid fidgeting with your braces when removing them to eat. After wearing them for a few days, it will be like they’re not even there. Rushing the Process You’re excited to get to the part where you don’t have to wear your Invisalign braces anymore — trust us, we get it. However, you can’t rush to a new pair of aligners before your teeth are ready for them. Doing so could destabilize your teeth, loosening them, and making them more likely to fall out. While you might still have to avoid certain behaviors and change your routine with Invisalign braces, they’re still far less noticeable and will fix your bite far more quickly than traditional braces. If you have any questions about best practices with Invisalign braces, call Dr. Alborzi today at (650) 342-4171.

You might have initially explored getting Invisalign braces because they seemed more “low maintenance” than traditional metal braces. While this may be true in some regards, getting the most out of your Invisalign treatment still means you have to avoid certain behaviors when you’re wearing them (and when you’re not wearing them, for that matter). If you’re currently using Invisalign, or you’re about to schedule an appointment to get some, avoid these behaviors. Drinking Anything (Besides Water) While Wearing Invisalign You can stay hydrated while wearing your Invisalign braces, but if you want to wake up with some coffee or soda, you’re going to have to take them out. Carbonated water and sugar can damage the materials that make up your braces. It’s pretty easy to remember not to eat with them in (things will get messy pretty quickly), but it’s harder to remember how damaging different beverages can be until it’s too late!
