Before we get into cleaning braces, let’s discuss what they actually are.
What are braces?
Brace treatment involves using appliances to straighten crooked, crowded or protruding teeth, close gaps between teeth and correct the bite. There are a variety of different orthodontic braces available, some of which are fixed, located on the outside or the inside of the teeth, and some that are removable.
Orthodontics can fulfil your dream of a straight and aligned smile. But it’s not just the job of your orthodontic consultant to get you that perfect smile, you also play a part. If you don’t take care of your teeth and braces properly, you could slow down the progress of your new smile. Neglecting good oral care could lead to yellow teeth, tooth decay, and even crooked teeth - meaning your braces will have to stay on longer.
Orthodontic treatment is the process of straightening teeth to not only achieve a more pleasing smile but better alignment to help with cleaning and chewing. Metal braces are some of the most affordable and effective forms of braces, and we offer them here at Oldham Orthodontics!
