|You need to brush and floss daily. If you don't plaque can cause decalcification. See here:http://www.staggersorthodontics.com/imag...





do you want your nice straight teeth to look like that?
Reply:Simply, the best results will occur when you follow the necessary hygiene under any conditions.
Reply:It's always bad to forget to brush your teeth. And with braces, your breath will probably wind up smelling REALLY bad. Be sure to always brush. Couldn't hurt to use Listerine, too. It will help wash and kill bacteria in and around the braces.
Reply:Dont trip !!! When you get home brush and floss your teeth!!!


Nuthing will happen!!!
Reply:Iv done that, because they were tightened and it hurt every time i tried brushing so i gave up. but i don't think it will be bad. just use teeth whitener that's all. and yes it does take a long time to floss do to braces in your mouth.








GREAT LUCK
Reply:Your teeth aren't going to fall out or anything after just two days but, I bet your breath was rank! Make sure you start flossing EVERY day, it prevents gum disease and keeps your mouth healthy!!
Reply:You have to look at your teeth and the braces as an investment that you need to care for. If you don't care for your teeth properly, you may have white stains on your teeth when the braces come off. These stains are the beginning of cavities, they don't polish off and you can't bleach them out.





Try Superfloss. It's stiff on the ends so that you just have to poke it in between your teeth (no threading it through your wire or using a bridge threader)





You might check into getting a prescription toothpaste with extra fluoride to strengthen your teeth. Control Rx is a good one to use.





Next time, go to the store and buy a toothbrush.
