Can I eat with invisible braces?

You cannot eat on the day after invisible braces surgery, because it is easy for teeth to shift and become infected after they are straightened on the first day, so we need to pay attention to oral hygiene. After wearing invisible braces, it is best to take them off when eating. This is mainly to protect the braces from wear or breakage due to long-term chewing. Moreover, if we eat with braces on and do not clean them, food residues will remain in the braces.

The material of invisible braces is a special bioceramic, which appears transparent from a distance. Compared with traditional metal braces, they are not only beautiful, but also more biocompatible, with less friction and more comfortable feeling when worn. Wearing this type of braces can also shorten the correction time to a certain extent. However, straightening teeth is not just a trivial matter of fixing the tooth sockets and then forgetting about it. Before correction, you need to cooperate with the doctor to complete dental X-rays, and ask the doctor to carefully analyze and make a complete plan based on the panoramic X-rays and head films. Just like before building a house, you need precise surveys and accurate drawings to have scientific guarantees.

The general recommendation is to take off the invisible braces when eating. On the one hand, it is to protect the braces and avoid long-term chewing that may cause the braces to wear or break. On the other hand, it is to avoid not brushing your teeth after eating with braces, which may cause tooth decay and the braces to become dirty and stained. The materials used for invisible braces are very good nowadays. They will not be excessively worn or broken when you eat with them on, and they are not easily stained by food. So if you can clean your teeth and braces in time, you can eat with them on, and the force of chewing will help the braces wrap around your teeth better. For some individual cases where there is occlusal interference during the correction of malocclusion, it is recommended to wear braces for eating.

Correction Notes:

1. During the correction period, it is recommended that you pay attention to maintaining oral hygiene after wearing braces. You should brush your teeth or rinse your mouth after each meal.

2. If the expected correction effect is not achieved during the correction process, timely follow-up is required;

3. After wearing braces, do not eat anything that is too hard, too tough, or sticky to your teeth, so as to avoid causing the appliance to fall off, affecting the correction effect and prolonging the treatment time;

4. When you first wear braces, there will be a little pain, but you will usually get used to it after a period of time. After the correction is completed, you should wear a retainer to avoid recurrence.

Although there are many things to pay attention to when wearing invisible braces, it is the best treatment technology for correcting dental deformities. It can help you have a set of neat and beautiful teeth and say goodbye to the image of braces. As long as you pay attention when wearing braces, don't put too much psychological pressure on yourself, and keep the precautions in mind. I wish everyone who wears braces can take them off beautifully and give themselves a brand new look.
