3 months of issues after starting 2nd Invisalign retainer. I was treated for thrush w/ 2 rounds of Nystatin and 7 days of Fluconazole. The thicker white areas cleared up but my tongue was still has cracks, inflamed taste buds & still turns white. We adjusted the retainers, no luck. I have gone back to the 1st retainer, meh results. Is something else wrong and the retainers are only irritating it? Or did the retainer do so much damage before we began tweaking it that my tongue just hasn't healed?
Hello, The internet obviously gives me conflicting answers of potential staining or using too much mouthwash will damage the attachments and your teeth. The mouthwash I got was a blue colored. My question, can I still use this mouthwash? (planning on twice a day, wake up, and bedtime) To prevent possible staining, maybe I could just rinse my mouth out with water a few of times after mouthwash? Would that prevent staining? Planning on asking my ortho next week anyway, just wanted other opinions!
Hi, I'd like to know if it's possible to just use a mouthwash like Listerine to rinse the mouth after a meal and then get the Invisalign on right after? Because brushing of the teeth might not be possible all the time. Brushing would only happen an hour or so later when I'm able to get back to the office. Thanks!
My daughter had3 cavities when she began the invisilign process. She's only going on her 4th tray so I'm well aware that hygiene is also something that needs to be mentioned here. She wears them faithfully but when not she puts them in Listerine to get rid of taste. She went from 3 old cavities to 9 in about 5 months. She's not angel. She likes soda, sweets...all of it but she brushes and flosses. The only difference is the mouthwash sitting on her teeth.
