If you have Invisalign, it’s important to keep your teeth clean and free of bacteria. Here are some tips to help:
- Use a toothbrush and water to clean your teeth. Be sure to use a light sudsing motion, not too hard or too soft, as this will help remove plaque and bacteria.
- Rinse your mouth with water and spit out the suds. Spit out the toothbrush too - it will help remove any built-up plaque on your teeth.
- Swish water and spit into a cup or bowl and add baking soda (sodium bicarbonate). Swish the mixture around for about 5 minutes, then spit it out again. Spit out all of the toothpaste - it will help remove any built-up plaque on your teeth as well as bacteria from your mouth!
