Invisalign clear liners offer a convenient and removable way to straighten your teeth.
One of the most well-known sacrifices of orthodontic care is often diet change. Many people already know that with traditional braces, you must avoid certain foods during your treatment to protect the braces.
But what about eating with Invisalign? Which foods must you avoid during Invisalign treatment?
Here’s everything you need to know about eating with Invisalign.
The short answer is that no, you do not have to change your diet while undergoing Invisalign treatment. Unlike metal braces, Invisalign clear liners are removable. you simply take them out of your mouth when eating or drinking non-water liquids. Since you can remove them, there’s no need to worry about food damaging your aligners while eating.
Well you don’t need to completely avoid any foods, there are some foods that still can interrupt your treatment or damage your teeth if you’re not careful.For example,if you eat some very sticky toffee or other candy and don’t diligently clean your teeth after,then your Invisalign clear aligners may trap the sugary remnants on your teeth.This could stain your aligners, but worse yet, it could also lead to tooth decay and other dental issues.
some common foods that are likely to require extra caution include:
As mentioned, you can still enjoy all of the foods above and more, but the key is to clean your teeth after eating.Never reinsert your Invisalign before cleaning your teeth as this could lead to several issues, including tooth decay.Additionally, you should not try to eat with your Invisalign in, and you should also remove it when drinking any non-water liquids.
After eating, brush and floss your teeth. Rinse off your liners as well before reinserting them.As long as you follow those tips, you’re free to enjoy all of your favorite foods during Invisalign!
