You\u2019re likely to feel energized and ready\nto be as productive as ever! But if you\u2019ve recently started your <a href=\"https:\/\/www.edfamilydental.com\/invisalign.html\">Invisalign<\/a> process,\ndrinking your favorite cup of joe could become problematic. Read on to learn\nwhy you should avoid drinking coffee while wearing Invisalign and how you could\nstill enjoy it during your treatment. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<!--more-->\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The Risks of Drinking Coffee with Invisalign<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The only thing you should consume while wearing your clear\naligners is tap or bottled water. If you\u2019re undergoing the Invisalign process,\nthen it\u2019s best to avoid coffee and any other dark beverages. Several issues\nthat can occur involve:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li><strong>Warped Trays<\/strong>: Coffee is usually served\nhot, and since Invisalign trays are made of heat-sensitive materials, it can\ncause them to be warped and damaged. This could interrupt your treatment in the\nlong run.<\/li><li><strong>Stains &amp; Discoloration<\/strong>: Drinking\nanything other than water can cause stains to develop on your Invisalign trays,\ntaking away the discreetness they were designed for. Additionally, your teeth\nwill be more susceptible to discoloration because of coffee getting trapped\nbetween your teeth and aligners. <\/li><li><strong>Heightened Risk of Decay<\/strong>: Coffee is\nalready acidic, and many people add heavy amounts of cream and sugar in their\ncups. This can increase your risk of tooth decay if the sugary and acidic liquid\nsettles underneath your trays.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Can You Still Enjoy Coffee During the Invisalign Process?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>While there certainly are risks to drinking coffee when\nwearing Invisalign, it doesn\u2019t mean you can\u2019t still enjoy a cup of joe during\nthe process! You\u2019ll just have to make some minor changes to your drinking\nhabits. Whenever you want to eat or drink something, you\u2019ll want to remove and\nstore your trays to avoid losing or damaging them. Once you\u2019ve finished, you\nshould brush your teeth and rinse off your aligners before wearing them again.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Drinking your coffee in 15-30 minutes can also help you put\nyour trays back on sooner. Sipping it for an hour or two can end up extending\nthe straightening process. Reducing or eliminating sugar and cream will reduce\nthe risk of bacteria growth on your trays and cavities in your teeth.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>With just a few adjustments, you\u2019ll be free to enjoy your\nmorning brew of coffee while staying on track with your Invisalign treatment! And\nif you do have concerns along the way, you\u2019re dentist is always happy to help. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">About the Author<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Dr. Eduart Shkurti earned his dental doctorate from the\nUniversity of Southern California School of Dental Medicine.
