- Invisalign OrthodonticsInvisalign uses a series of invisible, removable, and comfortable aligners that no one can tell your are wearing. So, you can smile more during treatment as well as after. Because you remove the aligners when you are eating, you can eat and drink what you want while in treatment. Plus, brushing and flossing are no problem.
- BracesThe adhesive used for attaching the braces to your teeth cures rapidly initially, but takes 24-hours to completely cure. You can eat anytime after leaving our office. However, we ask that you be mindful of the suggested list of foods that may be harmful to the brace. Until you become accustomed to eating with your new braces, you may find it beneficial to follow a dies consisting of soft foods.
