  • It’s not uncommon to have dry mouth during clear aligner therapy. Be sure to drink plenty of water to help stay hydrated and keep your mouth fresh and moisturized. You can also try sugar-free mints with xylitol. Xylitol is a sweetener that is anti-cariogenic and increase salivary flow.

    Thank you. I have been struggling with dry mouth I found myself brushing my teeth, invisalign, and tongue 4 to 5 times daily.

    what do you recommend to get a full night's sleep-biotene gives me only five hours straight sleep and find myself drinking water every hour after that which keeps me up for the rest of the night?

    • @TrayMinder

      Try to drink more water throughout the day and try xylitol mints. Check in with your dentist for their advice.

    Can you use Move mints with your aligners in?

    • @TrayMinder
      @TrayMinder  3 роки тому +1

      Yes, Movemints are sugar free so they are safe to use.

    Are you able to explain physiologically why retainers cause a dry mouth and lips - it’s something I’ve been really struggling with over the past few weeks. Thanks.

      For sharp aligners, you can smooth it out but if that doesn’t help, please contact your dental provider. ua-cam.com/video/n8YszIKe-MM/v-deo.html

    I have been struggling with dry mouth and lips with my invisalign for awhile now. I think it may be my elastics. It's not as bad when they are not in. Sometimes I have to take them out to get relief. I also feel very nauseous with the elastics.

    • @TrayMinder
      @TrayMinder  3 роки тому

      Some people have strong gag reflex to aligners and elastics. Would you happen to have latex allergy? Perhaps try non latex elastics.

      @@TrayMinder Thank you. I will see if I can get non latex elastics and hopefully that will help. I do not have an allergy to latex but will try non latex anyway. Thanks!
