Clear aligners are a good alternative for patients who want a straighter smile but do not want to wear traditional braces. Additionally, aligners are beneficial for patients with previous orthodontic treatment who want to make minor corrections to their smiles. There are several advantages to using clear aligners: Clear aligners are difficult for other people to see You don’t need to avoid sticky foods or gum because you take out clear aligners before eating It’s easy to brush and floss after meals since the aligners are removable Clear aligners are more comfortable and less likely to irritate the gums and cheeks than braces

We bet that fresh breath is important now more than ever since you're wearing a mask and staying safe! We have 4 helpful tips to help you keep your breath fresh and pleasant all day long. 1. Eat your greens! Eating green leafy vegetables, or any water-rich fruits & veggies, is a great way to keep your breath in check because the water in those foods helps with saliva production. 2. Brush or scrape your tongue: Your tongue is a wonderful collector of gunk. So, to keep your bre...ath smelling fresh all day, you’ve got to keep it clean. Be sure to aim for the back of your tongue where most of the particles tend to linger. 3. Carry the right tools: Keep a toothbrush, toothpaste, and floss on hand for when you have a delicious garlicky meal. 4. Water is your friend: Pack a water bottle when you leave the house and actively try to drink more water during the day. Use an app or set reminders on your phone. Water is good for you and your breath! #NationalFreshBreathDay #FreshBreath
