Starting something new is always a mix of exciting and nerve-wracking, right? When it comes to getting a smile you’ll love, Dr. Sara and the team at Elara Orthodontics are here to make it all about the excitement. If you’re thinking about straightening your teeth, you’re in the right spot.
Getting to Know Your New Best Friends: Your Aligners
Aligners are kind of like your teeth’s new best friends. They’re clear, almost invisible buddies that gently move your teeth into place. Dr. Sara loves showing off how these little wonders work. If you’re curious, we’ve got a whole piece on the magic behind Invisalign.
Living That Aligner Life
Adjusting to aligners is pretty straightforward. You wear them a lot, sure, but you won’t even notice they’re there after a bit. Eating and brushing? Just pop them out. We’ve put together everything you need to know in our aligner living guide.
Invisalign Don’ts According to Dr. Sara
Dr. Sara has some tips on what not to do with your Invisalign:
- Don’t leave them out too long: They can’t straighten your teeth from the table.
- Eating with them is a no-go: Except for water, take them out to avoid stains or damage.
- Clean them as much as your teeth: Dirty aligners are not only gross; they can also affect your dental health.
- Keep them safe: Always pop them into their case when not in your mouth to avoid any “oops” moments.
- Avoid Chewing Gum: Orthodontists recommend avoiding chewing gum while you are on Invisalign, because the gum could stick to your Invisalign lead to growth of bacteria and even change the position of the aligners and reduce the effectiveness.
Keeping these tips in mind will help you stay on track with your smile journey.
