Clear Braces in Santa Clarita have completely changed the whole picture of braces in our mind. While there are multiple benefits of choosing clear braces over traditional braces, if you don’t take care of them properly, you’ll eventually find yourself in a big problem in near future.  
 
If you do not take the cleaning process carefully you’ll be facing a lot of problems such as discolouration of the clear aligners and build-up of bad bacteria.  
 
If this happens, the Invisalign is going to be visible and people will notice that you are wearing some kind of Invisalign which is what you were eventually trying to hide. This can lower your self-esteem as well as self-confidence.  
 
Taking proper care of Invisalign is quite easy, you just need some patience and some tips and you are good to go. Here are some of the do's and don'ts of how to clean Clear Braces in Santa Clarita or Invisalign at home.  
 
●Take out the aligner trays every day in the morning. Brush and floss your teeth like you usually do. During that time soak the Invisalign in warm water, add some solution and gently brush the Invisalign with any soft brush and your Invisalign are in perfect condition.
 
●Establishing this morning routine is extremely important especially for your oral health and hygiene. Repeat this routine before going to the bed as well. This will help your Invisalign stay strong and without any stain.  
 
●As we all know that Invisalign is removable. Do rinse them properly before installing them in your mouth again. This will keep the bacteria and plaque away from your Invisalign.
 
●You can also use some antibacterial soap to rinse the Invisalign, These antibacterial soap are very affordable and are available in the market easily.
 
●Always carry your Invisalign tray, so that you do not have to leave them in the open air. Always care water with you, so that you can rinse them properly.  
 
Soaking your aligners once a day is extremely important. To keep your clear braces looking and feeling the best, it is better to at least soak them once a day.  
 
●Do not drink or ear anything with your Invisalign on. Try to remove them properly before you start to eat anything. The only thing that you can drink while your Invisalign is water. Try to avoid sugary or sticky food.
 
●Not only food particles can get stuck in your aligners but also they can be stained permanently or damaged. They are not built to support the pressure of chewing or eating your food.
