UAE: 10 expert tips to keep your teeth and aligners healthy this summer
Summer is the season of getaways, cold treats, and outdoor fun — but it can also be a challenge for anyone undergoing aligner treatment. Disrupted routines, heat exposure, and sugary snacks can all affect your smile progress. Whether you're vacationing or just enjoying longer days, following a few key habits can make all the difference. Dental experts at share 10 must-follow tips to help you maintain oral hygiene, protect your aligners, and keep your treatment on track for a healthy, confident smile all summer long. 1. Don't skip your aligners, even on vacation Summer vacations can disrupt routines. You should be fully dedicated, even while on vacation, to keep your aligner treatment on track. 2. Hydration is key, for your smile too Hydration avoids dry mouth, which can attract bacteria. Always rinse your aligners after drinking anything other than water. 3. Keep your aligners away from heat Don't leave your aligners in the hot sun or in a parked car, as they will warp. Store them in their case when not in use. When you clean them with tablets, only use lukewarm water, not hot water. 4. Step up your oral hygiene Sweat and dry mouth can impact your breath. Brush after each meal and use antibacterial mouthwash to keep fresh. 5. Choose smart snacks Always remove your aligners before eating or drinking anything other than cool water. Aim for summer treats like watermelon, yogurt, and soft fruits that are gentle on your teeth and easy to clean up after, so you can pop your aligners back in quickly and stay on track. 6. Whiten your teeth while you align If you're thinking about brightening your smile, summer might be a good time to explore safe whitening options. Some people choose to whiten during or after aligner treatment, but timing matters — always consult a dental professional to ensure it won't interfere with your aligner progress. You can catch a seasonal promotions for a whiter smile while in treatment or after at Basma. 7. Have your aligners case handy You can wear your aligners almost anywhere, so always keep your aligners in their case when not in your mouth to prevent loss or damage. 8. Plan ahead for travel If you're heading out this summer, plan in advance. At Basma, we make sure you have all the aligners you need to stay on track, even while you're away. 9. Confidence starts with a smile Aligners are almost invisible, so they're perfect for selfies and summer gatherings. Stay on track and you'll see real progress by autumn. 10. Keep it clean Always brush and floss before putting your aligners back in. Use a soft toothbrush to clean both your teeth and aligners each time you take them out. Clean your aligners with tablets daily.
