Do you love sipping on an iced latte in the afternoon to keep your energy up? If so, you might be wondering if the start of your <a href=\"https:\/\/www.micheldental.com\/invisalign.html\">Invisalign<\/a> treatment means the end of your days enjoying this caffeinated beverage at your leisure. Here\u2019s the answer!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<!--more-->\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">So, Are You Allowed to Drink Coffee with Invisalign?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Yes, you are allowed to drink coffee during your Invisalign treatment! There\u2019s just one \u201cbut;\u201d you need to take your aligners off beforehand. Otherwise, stubborn stains will develop, drawing unwanted attention to your smile. Plus, even if you aren\u2019t worried about the aesthetic component, the trays can warp when exposed to hot liquids, rendering them virtually useless. So, if you want to stay on-track with your treatment plan, you will make taking them off beforehand a habit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Tip: Drink Your Coffee Alongside a Meal or Snack<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Remember, you only have a limited amount of aligner-free time each day. So, it\u2019s important that you use that time wisely! Instead of taking your aligners off for an hour to leisurely sip on your coffee, enjoy it alongside your breakfast or afternoon snack. Then, when you\u2019re done, rinse your mouth thoroughly with clean, cool water and brush your teeth about 20 minutes later.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How To: Drink Your Coffee the \u201cSmile-Friendly\u201d Way<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>It\u2019s important to remember that \u2013 in addition to increasing your risk of dental discoloration \u2013 the acidic nature of coffee can lead to tooth decay. That\u2019s why patients are encouraged to drink theirs the \u201csmile-friendly\u201d way (aka using a straw and keeping additives, like sugar, to a minimum). As mentioned above, it\u2019s a good idea to rinse your mouth with clean, cool water afterward and, if you can, brush your teeth as well.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">About the Practice<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Our top-rated dental team at <a href=\"https:\/\/www.micheldental.com\/\">Michel Dental<\/a> is here to help patients with all of their dental needs \u2013 from routine checkups to smile-enhancing services like Invisalign.
