Can You Drink Flavored Water With Retainers

This is a huge inconvenience for me because i want a drink i can carry around at school and at home and drink when i please.

Can you drink flavored water with retainers. Only drink water with invisalign in. Co2 h2o h2co. Liquids can seep into the retainer and the liquid is held against the teeth until the retainer is removed. The pressure causes the co2 to dissolve into the water and the release of the co2 from the water is what causes the bubbles.

It is best to only drink plain non carbonated water with invisalign in your mouth. Flavored and sparking waters have acids in them which can seep under the aligners and sit on your tooth surface and eat away at your teeth and cause cavities. So i was wondering if propel nestle splash or fruit20 would be ok to drink with my retainers in. A great alternative to soda is flavored water.

If you have an essix retainer you may be advised to avoid drinking liquids except water when the retainers are in place. If you have removable retainers ask your orthodontist if they should be removed before you eat. You re trying to improve your teeth right now so why would you drink soda. Sports drinks like gatorade and powerade is kinda pushing the limit.

However i would not recommend drinking acidic stuff like soda energy drinks and lemonade limeade. I have seen everywhere online that you can only drink water with retainers in. The sugar and syrup will ruin your retainer. Do yourself and favor and don t drink it at all.

Sparkling water is made fizzy by forcing carbon dioxide into a container with water under high pressure. You have retainers in order to align your teeth.
