Caring for Your Braces Is Important for Their Longevity and Success

Home | orthodontics

Did you know if you care for your braces you can increase the longevity and successful rate of your ideal alignment? Well, it’s true! Remembering properly caring for your braces is equally as important as caring for your smile. That is why our team has provided this list for you as you undergo treatment to align your smile with braces. The list includes:

– Food: Avoid various foods and snacks that can easily get stuck between your teeth and braces.
– Safety Equipment: To protect your teeth and braces, wear safety equipment to suit your environment. This includes mouth guards, helmets, face protectors, etc.
– Cleaning: Always clean your retainer weekly.
– Oral Hygiene: To keep your braces clean, you should still brush your teeth twice daily and floss once daily to prevent harmful food particles from becoming trapped between wedges in your braces and teeth.
– Appointments: Visit your orthodontist regularly for checkups and appointments.

While technology has changed many things in society, one thing that has stayed constant is the fact that many children get braces to help straighten their teeth. Today, 50-70 percent of children have braces, and adults are beginning to get braces too. No matter the age, teeth can always be straightened, and braces help do just that.

Below is some information to answer some of your questions about braces:

How much will braces cost?
The cost of braces often depends upon the treatment plan outlined by the Orthodontist. Shorter treatments cost less, and longer treatments cost more. Also, the type of braces the patient chooses will impact the cost. For example, invisible braces will cost more money than traditional metal ones.

What are the different types of braces?
• Traditional metal braces
• Self-litigating metal braces
• Clear/Ceramic braces
• Lingual braces

Do braces hurt?
A patient’s teeth are usually sore for a couple of days following the initial installation of the braces and after each subsequent monthly adjustment.

Less pain is felt now than in the past, however, as there are smaller and more efficient tools used to adjust the braces. With time, braces become less painful.

How do I remove food stuck in my braces?
One of the most effective methods of removing food from your braces is by using floss or a specialized braces toothbrush that has a small brush at the end to reach crevices and hard-to-reach areas.

What are the pros and cons of ceramic braces?
Ceramic braces are less visible than metal braces. The only perceived con is that they are more visible than invisible braces, now called Incognito, and Invisalign. Ceramic braces do not stain teeth.
