How to

Maintain Oral Hygiene with Braces

Brush Thoroughly After Every Meal

Use a soft-bristled toothbrush and fluoride toothpaste to remove food particles stuck around brackets and wires.

Use Interdental Brushes or Proxabrushes

Clean between braces and under wires where a regular toothbrush cannot reach to prevent plaque buildup.

Floss Daily with Special Tools

Use floss threaders or orthodontic floss to clean between teeth and under wires effectively without damaging braces.

Rinse with Antibacterial Mouthwash

Kill bacteria and reduce inflammation by rinsing daily with an alcohol-free antibacterial mouthwash recommended by your dentist.
