Caring for Your Smile after Invisalign® Treatment

You have done a lot of work to get the perfect smile. You wore your Invisalign aligner trays and cared for your teeth, and now your treatment is done. You should be proud of yourself for committing to the treatment process! Now that your aligners are off, it’s time to focus on maintaining your new smile.

Retainers

Many patients will need to wear a retainer after Invisalign treatment. Retainers help keep your teeth in their new positions and prevent them from shifting back. Your retainer should be worn as directed by the doctor.

Brushing and Flossing

Continue to brush and floss your teeth twice a day. Good oral hygiene is essential for keeping your teeth healthy and your smile bright.

Regular Dental Checkups

Keep up with your regular dental exams and cleanings. Professional cleanings remove plaque and tartar that brushing alone can’t, and exams allow us to catch any issues early.
