Whether you’re already rocking braces, wearing an orthodontic appliance, or considering starting your orthodontic journey, we’ve got tips and encouragement to keep you smiling bright all year long.
Caring for Your Smile with Braces or Appliances
If you’re already in treatment, keeping your braces or orthodontic appliances in tip-top shape is essential to achieving the best results. Here are some simple but important ways to stay on track:
- Stick to Your Cleaning Routine: Brush after every meal and floss daily to prevent plaque buildup around your braces or appliance. Don’t forget to rinse with mouthwash for extra protection!
- Avoid Hard or Sticky Foods: Say goodbye (for now) to tough, chewy, or sticky snacks that can damage your braces. Your future smile will thank you.
- Wear Your Rubber Bands or Appliances as Directed: These little things make a big difference in your treatment progress, so follow your orthodontist’s instructions closely.
- Check in with Us: Regular appointments are key to keeping everything on track. If something feels off, don’t hesitate to reach out.
