Do you guys know what I mean?
As a medical cosmetologist, I have worked with various clients who wanted to improve their smile and overall dental health. One of the most common questions I receive from my patients is whether they can perform oral activities like kissing or oral sex while wearing Invisalign aligners.
Invisalign is an orthodontic treatment that uses a series of clear, custom-made aligner trays to gradually shift teeth into their correct position over time. The aligners are made from durable, BPA-free plastic and are designed to be comfortable for the wearer while providing effective treatment. However, one potential drawback of Invisalign is its impact on oral activities like kissing or oral sex.
From my experience as a medical cosmetologist, I can say that wearing Invisalign aligners generally does not affect your ability to perform oral activities. The aligners are designed to be discreet and comfortable, so you should not have any issues with speech, eating, or other normal functions during treatment. However, there may be some minor adjustments needed in certain situations.
For instance, when engaging in oral sex while wearing Invisalign aligners, it is important to avoid biting down too hard on your partner's lips or tongue as this could cause discomfort for both you and them. Instead, try using more gentle pressure to maintain proper positioning during sexual activity.
In terms of kissing, the aligners should not interfere with normal oral functions like talking or breathing. You may need to adjust how much effort you put into puckering your lips when giving a kiss as wearing Invisalign might make it slightly difficult for your partner to get close enough to engage in a deep lip-lock. However, this is more of an adjustment than anything else and should not be considered a major concern during treatment with Invisalign.
In conclusion, from my perspective as a medical cosmetologist, you should generally have no issue performing oral activities like kissing or sexual intercourse while wearing Invisalign aligners. While there may be some minor adjustments needed to ensure comfort for both yourself and your partner, overall it is not expected that this will significantly impact the quality of these relationships during treatment with Invisalign.
However, keep in mind that every person's experience can vary depending on their personal circumstances and preferences. It would still be best to discuss any concerns or questions you have with your dentist who prescribed Invisalign for you. They should be able to provide more specific advice tailored towards your situation, and ensure proper alignment while wearing the aligners during these activities.
