Porcelain veneers can effectively conceal minor tooth fractures or chips, restoring the appearance of the affected teeth.
Fluoride strengthens tooth enamel, making it more resistant to acid attacks and reducing the risk of cavities.
Brush twice daily, floss once daily, use fluoride toothpaste, have a balanced diet, avoid excessive sugars, and see a dentist regularly.
You can use a water flosser with porcelain veneers, but remove your aligners for effective cleaning between your teeth.
It’s advisable to avoid smoking e-cigarettes or vaping with Invisalign aligners, as it can still have negative effects on your oral health.
Dental adhesive is not recommended for securing loose attachments. Contact your orthodontist for professional adjustments.
