Invisalign aligners are designed to be removed before eating or drinking anything other than water. Unlike traditional braces, which have many food restrictions, Invisalign allows you to enjoy all your favorite foods without worry.
Remove Invisalign before Meals
Simply remove your aligners before meals to enjoy the foods you love. Brushing before putting the aligners back in is crucial to avoid trapping food particles and bacteria underneath them.
Drinking with Invisalign Aligners
While drinking water with your aligners is okay, it's best to avoid beverages like coffee, tea, wine, or soda that can stain or cloud your aligners. Sugary or acidic drinks can lead to tooth decay, as these substances can become trapped against your teeth if consumed with aligners in place.
