Traditional Orthodontics
Crooked or misaligned teeth can impact both your oral health and self-confidence. Traditional metal braces remain one of the most effective and reliable ways to straighten teeth, improving not only your smile’s appearance but also making daily cleaning and maintenance much easier.
Caring for Your Braces
Good oral hygiene is essential while wearing braces. Brush at least twice a day using a soft-bristled toothbrush, floss daily with a floss threader or orthodontic floss, and rinse with an antibacterial mouthwash to help prevent plaque buildup and gum issues.
Foods to Avoid with Braces
Wearing braces requires a few dietary adjustments to protect the brackets and wires. Avoid hard foods like nuts, crunchy snacks such as popcorn, and sticky items like caramel or chewing gum. These can get lodged in your braces or cause damage, leading to delays in your treatment.
