It always seemed like you were forgetting something. Well, that\u2019s because you did, so you\u2019d often end up having to sleep in grandpa\u2019s oversized pajamas!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>These days, you must remember to pack your <a href=\"https:\/\/www.islandcitydental.com\/invisalign.html\">Invisalign<\/a> when you are traveling to keep your smile progressing toward perfect. You know the routine of wearing and maintaining your aligners during a normal week at home, but what considerations do you need to be aware of when you are traveling with Invisalign?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<!--more-->\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Pack a Dental Essentials Kit for Your Trip<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Make sure to bring these essential travel items to maintain your oral health:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li><strong>Travel toothbrush:<\/strong> Bring multiple toothbrushes and stash them in convenient places so you can easily clean your teeth after eating and drinking before replacing your aligners<\/li><li><strong>Floss:<\/strong> Being able to clean between your teeth once a day is a travel necessity<\/li><li><strong>Mouthwash:<\/strong> Rinsing is a great way to clear any debris your toothbrush can\u2019t reach<\/li><li><strong>Next set of aligners:<\/strong> If you are planning on traveling for multiple weeks, there\u2019s a good chance you\u2019ll need to change your aligners<\/li><li><strong>Invisalign case:<\/strong> Keep track of your current aligners when you take them out to eat, plus you can store your next set<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Maintain Your Routine<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Vacation is a great time to leave your responsibilities at home, but this doesn\u2019t apply to your oral health. Continue to brush at least twice a day and floss at night before bed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A key benefit of Invisalign is you can eat and drink whatever you want when your aligners are removed. Even so, it can be easy to neglect the mandatory 22 hours of wear if you are having drinks on the beach all day, so be sure to set a timer when eating and drinking to avoid falling behind on your progress.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Make Sure the Tap Water Is Safe<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Depending on where you are traveling, you may need to be careful about the water supply you\u2019re using to brush your teeth. If you are advised not to drink water from the tap, you should not brush or rinse with it, either.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When in doubt, use only bottled water on your toothbrush. Since Invisalign requires you to brush after everything you eat, always be sure to have a bottle of safe water with you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Let Your Dentist Know Before Your Trip Begins<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>It\u2019s a smart idea to schedule a pre-trip appointment with your dentist. They can ensure your treatment plan stays on track while you are away.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>By caring for your teeth on vacation in the same way you would if you were at home, you can prevent mishaps and ensure that the progress with your Invisalign treatment stays on track!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">About the Practice<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>At <a href=\"https:\/\/www.islandcitydental.com\/\">Island City Dental<\/a>, we want to give our patients peace of mind in addition to beautiful smiles.
