IF I HAVE FOOD RESIDUES LIKE BLUEBERRIES OR PASTA SAUCE IN MY MOUTH, WILL THAT STAIN MY ALIGNERS WHEN I PUT THEM BACK?
WILL FOOD RESIDUES LIKE BLUEBERRIES OR PASTA SAUCE STAIN MY INVISALIGN?
TROUBLE SHOOTING From DIGITAL ORTHODONTICS - Solo Edition by Dr. Bak Nguyen
First of all, you should always clean your teeth before putting back your aligners. That should solve this issue. Now, within 17 years plus of experience, I saw people eating with their aligners and stained them badly.
Once stained, it is pretty hard to clean. You can try the cleaning crystal sold by the invisalign company but those were to clean the calculus resulting from your saliva, not food stain.
Fortunately, the problem is temporary, you will be switching aligners within the next few days, weeks at the most, anyway! Please do not do the same mistake twice!
