Why since starting invisalign am I getting bad breath?

Q. Since beginning invisalign I have begun to get bad breath. This is a real killer for me and my girlfriend and I want to get it sorted. I clean my teeth well enough but it still lingerse. Could you offer any tips on what I can to to get rid of it?

A. Try flossing, mouthwash or an electric toothbrush.  you may need to see a dental hygienist.  Make sure you clean and soak your aligners as they could be the cause.
