Q. Since beginning Invisalign I have been brushing my teeth regularly but I am worried a bit too regularly. I will usually eat on 5 separate occassions a day and then brush afterwards. But I have now read online that brushing too often can cause more damage than it is worth. Should I be worried?,
A. Hello,First, You should keep your regular check -up appointments with your general dentist as well. Hard brushing is the one which could cause some damage to the gum. Secondly, you might want to try electric toothbrush which can stop if you brush too hard.Therefore if can prevent any gumloss.Finally, tell your concern to your provider who could check your teeth/gum during your visit.And do not forget to brush after each meal!
