While this may sound easy in the beginning, sometimes life can get in the way and interrupt your progress. However, your dentist in Concord suggests a few ways you can make the Invisalign wear time a smooth and simple process for a straight smile! &nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<!--more-->\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Limit How Often You Snack<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Every time you want to eat or drink, you\u2019ll have to remove your aligners beforehand. This often results in something called the \u201cInvisalign Diet\u201d when a patient starts noticing more about their eating habits and how much they snack. In order to meet the required wear time, you might consider reducing the frequency in which you snack between meals. To avoid going hungry, you can choose fiber-rich foods like fruits, nuts, and veggies, or leaner meats that\u2019ll keep you full through the day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Eat &amp; Clean At the Same Time<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Maintaining clean Invisalign aligners is essential for wearing, as you\u2019ll want to preserve the health of your smile throughout the treatment. This usually involves brushing the trays and soaking them in cleaning crystals or similar agents to wash away food particles and plaque. Fortunately, you can do this while you\u2019re eating a meal! By multitasking both cleaning your aligners and eating your food, you also give yourself a convenient schedule for wearing them again.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Stay Away From Entertainment<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Have you ever had the urge to scroll through your phone or watch TV while you eat? Many times, people can become distracted with entertainment and let time pass by. This can be a major distraction for those wearing Invisalign, as instead of spending 15 minutes without their aligners, they end up not wearing them for an hour or longer. To prevent extending your teeth straightening treatment, it would be best to keep away from sources of entertainment, this way you can finish eating and continue wearing your trays as soon as possible.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">By practicing these few habits, meeting the 22-hour wear time with Invisalign should be a much easier process! And if you have any concerns along the way, your dentist would be happy to help you reach your goals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">About the Practice<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">At Generations Dental Care, we offer high-quality and comfortable dental services for all patients.
