No, you should remove your aligners while eating or drinking anything other than water. This prevents damage to the aligners and maintains oral hygiene.

Clean your aligners daily using lukewarm water and a soft toothbrush. You can also use specialized aligner cleaning solutions. Avoid hot water as it can warp the plastic.

You may experience a slight lisp for the first few days as your tongue adjusts. Most people adapt quickly and speak normally within a week.
