Q.
Hello Doctor Kumar,
Hello Doctor Kumar,
my Invisalign question is concerned with bleeding gums, which I have been getting quite often after the starting of my invisalign treatment. I am usually very thorough with my cleaning, brushing, flossing and using mouthwash and i also take great care to wash my brace when need be so I don’t think my hygiene is the problem in this case. Could you therefore please suggest any reason for why this would be happening? have an appointment booked for my dentist but would like a small piece of mind in the meantime.
Thank you for your time and I hope you can assist.

Dear enquirer. Thank you for your email. It may be the case that have a mild case of gum disease but do not know it. The aligners will cause a build up of plaque that will make the bleeding worse if this is the situation. I would advise that you most probably need to visit the dental hygienist at the practice you are based. Hope that helps. Dr R Kumar
