“Can Invisalign aligners be worn while drinking tea?”
I am a 22 year old male. I was wondering can Invisalign aligners be worn while drinking tea?

Yes, you can drink most clear liquids with them on. You may want to remove and rinse off when done>
Yes
Of course they can, but it will definitely stain the aligners.
Unfortunately, only water can be drank while wearing your invisalign trays. Anything else could lead to tooth decay from sitting on your teeth under the trays. Whenever you eat or drink, you need to brush and floss before putting the trays back in.
Hello,
Congratulations on the straighter teeth! No, Invisalign does not recommend that you eat or drink anything but room temperature to cool water with their aligners in. Remember the shape of the aligners are what causes your teeth to move in the manner we want them to move in. If they get distorted from a hot beverage, that aligner loses its ability to move your teeth in a predictable way. Also, remember that the aligners can pick up staining from the tea as well.
Hope this helps you.
My best to you!
