Dental hygiene tips for healthy teeth & gums
Invisalign are transparent and removable braces that let you align your teeth without having to deal with braces that are not so appealing. This state-of-the-art alternative to braces is custom-made for every patient and can be worn by teenagers and adults alike. With Invisalign, you can go out and party or play sports with friends without anyone noticing that you have braces on your teeth.
But every good thing comes with a cost, and the same is with Invisalign. You are required to wear Invisalign for no less than 22 hours in a day, and you can not eat or drink with Invisalign on you. Food and drinks, except water, can stain our braces, damage our aligners, etc.
People find it uncomfortable to keep removing their braces whenever they have to drink anything; hence a lot of people ask the question, “can I drink through a straw with Invisalign?” We will answer this question in this article.
If it is unavoidable to have a drink while you are out and you do not wish to remove your Invisalign retainers, then drinking from a straw is the best option. You must ensure that the liquid is not very hot and avoid colored drinks like colas and coffee. You should also rinse your mouth with lots of water after drinking to avoid stains. However, it is generally recommended to take out your retainers while drinking anything except water.
