Food rules for clear aligners

A great benefit of clear aligner treatment is fewer food restrictions! It is really pretty simple – avoid chewing on really hard objects. Things like ice, plastic bottle caps or pens can break off attachments. Try to limit your consumption of sugary foods, especially if you will not be able to brush immediately. As a reminder, remove your trays if you are drinking anything other than plain water, including sugar-free drinks like Crystal Light, diet soda or even water with lemon.
