What about home care of my teeth with braces?

With braces, oral hygiene is more important than ever. The stent has a tiny space and food particles and plaque are trapped. After each meal, carefully brush your teeth with fluoride toothpaste and a soft-bristled toothbrush. Rinse thoroughly and check the teeth in the mirror to make sure they are clean. It takes time between floss and floss to help the floss with a dental floss puncture device. Clean your teeth every six months to keep your gums and teeth healthy. Insufficient cleaning with a braces can cause enamel staining around the tray or band.
