Can You Kiss with Clear Aligners In?

Yes, You Can Kiss with Clear Aligners — But Here’s the Catch

Let’s get right to it: yes, you can kiss while wearing your clear aligners. Unlike bulky metal braces, aligners like those from NewSmile are slim, smooth, and nearly invisible — so your partner likely won’t even notice. But kissing with them in can take a little getting used to, especially if you're new to wearing them. TL;DR? Kissing isn’t off the table, but confidence is key — and that starts with knowing how your aligners work with your lifestyle.

Dating with Aligners — Do You Tell or Not?

When it comes to dating with aligners, a common question is: "Do I tell them or just roll with it?" Honestly, there’s no wrong answer.

Clear aligners are barely noticeable, so many wearers choose not to bring them up right away. But if you feel like it’s part of your journey — go ahead and share! You might be surprised how many people appreciate your commitment to self-care and improvement.

In fact, many NewSmile users say their aligners helped them feel more confident during dates because they knew they were working toward their best smile.

✨ Pro tip: Confidence is magnetic. If you own your journey, your date will too.

How to Stay Intimate Without Sacrificing Your Smile Goals

Worried about aligners getting in the way of closeness? You’re not alone. Here’s how to stay connected while keeping your treatment on track:

  • Plan ahead. If you know intimacy might be on the menu, pop your aligners out discreetly and store them safely in their case.
  • Stay fresh. Always brush and rinse your aligners before getting close — confidence often comes down to freshness.
  • Use the 22-hour rule wisely. Aligners should be worn 20–22 hours a day, but you can always time brief breaks around date nights.

At NewSmile, we believe your love life and your smile journey can absolutely co-exist — no compromises needed.

Confidence Is the Real Game-Changer

Aligners aren’t just about straight teeth — they’re about how you feel. When you feel good about your smile, everything else — including intimacy — gets a confidence boost.

Customers often share that using NewSmile aligners helped them:

  • Smile more on dates
  • Feel less self-conscious during close moments
  • Enjoy the process of transformation, even while dating

So whether you’re in a new relationship or deepening a long-term one, know that your aligners are part of building a future with more smiles — and more moments worth kissing for.

💡 Final Thought: Love Your Smile (and Your Life)

Wearing clear aligners doesn’t have to pause your love life. In fact, it can enhance it. With a little planning and a lot of confidence, kissing and dating with aligners becomes just another part of your glow-up.
