Can someone explain to me in detail how to brush your teeth with braces?
I had braces for 2 years. Just brush your teeth regular but be sure to floss daily. The plague will build up around the bracket. You dont want to get stains so make sure you floss good, brush daily, and mouthwash will help as well. Ask your dentist for floss threaders...they are these hook shapped pieces of plastic that you tie the floss onto and it helps you get the floss in between each bracket. Good Luck!!!
Reply:hi !!! its very very risky brushing your teeth with anything other than a toothbrush.why use braces????????????????? they may damage you????????/ stick to a toothbrush for teeth,and braces for trousers.
Reply:Brush normal but brush for longer and get your tounge really well and also you need to get next to you gum line. that really helps because getting a cavity while you have braces is a B(*%26amp;$ sorry for the launguge but it really hurts. also use mouth wash.
Reply:Well... I have braces right now and you have to be sure to brush your gums and the insides of your teeth. Flossing is important too... you need to floss in between each bracket. Mouthwash will also reach areas you cannot reach with your toothbrush. My orthodontist gave me a "christmas tree brush." It was small and shaped like a christmas tree. You could easily slide it in between each bracket and it really helps! Hope this helps!
Reply:Just brush normle, but make sure you don't brush hard. That will give you stains because the anmel will only be left where the brackets were.
Reply:i have braces and what i do is when i am brushing my top teeth i take the toothbrush and point the bristles down to get in between the wire and your tooth... while brushing th ebottem i point the bristles up from the bottom of my mouth.... hope it helps!!
