Living With Invisalign

Wondering what it's like living with Invisalign in Queens NY at Bayside Dental Arts with Dr. Andrey Ilyabayev? Here's what to expect in your daily life with clear aligners.

Wearing Your Aligners: Wear them for 20-22 hours daily for effective treatment. Remove them only for eating, drinking (except water), brushing, and flossing.

Eating and Drinking: Enjoy all your favorite foods by removing your aligners before meals and snacks. Brush your teeth before putting them back in. Drink only plain water while wearing aligners to avoid staining.

Maintaining Oral Hygiene: Brush and floss thoroughly after every meal and before reinserting your aligners. Clean your aligners daily with a soft toothbrush and mild soap or a specialized cleaner.

Speaking With Aligners: You might notice a slight lisp initially, but most people adapt within a few days. Practicing speaking aloud can help.

Discomfort and Soreness: Some mild soreness is normal when switching to a new set of aligners, usually lasting a day or two. Over-the-counter pain relievers can help.

Cleaning Your Aligners: Rinse aligners with water after removal. Clean them gently with a soft brush and mild soap or a specialized cleaner at least once a day.

Handling Lost or Damaged Aligners: Contact Bayside Dental Arts immediately if you lose or damage an aligner. Follow Dr. Andrey Ilyabayev's instructions.

Traveling With Invisalign: Keep your aligners and case with you. Maintain your wearing schedule and oral hygiene. Pack extra aligners for longer trips.

Regular Dental Visits: Continue attending your scheduled check-ups with Dr. Andrey Ilyabayev to monitor your progress.
