Caring for your Braces

https://oringsuspensiones.com/en/5u7pp8p You may discover that you have loose or broken braces. This is usually caused by playing with your braces or eating hard or sticky foods. Cover with wax if needed for comfort and avoid connecting elastics to loose appliances. In some cases, broken braces require an extra appointment. Please contact us to ask what the next step will be. Be careful not to break too many brackets as this can really hold up finishing your treatment!

You can try to push the wire away from the irritated area by using a cotton swab or pencil eraser. If the wire does not move, cover it with a small pea-sized amount of wax. Call the office for an extra appointment or advice if you cannot resolve the problem.

After 72 hours, the teeth usually start feeling better. Eat soft food if necessary and take the pain relief you would use for a headache.

Buy Clonazepam Usa During the first week of treatment, you may notice sores or ulcerations inside your mouth. This can happen because your lips and cheeks are not yet used to rubbing against your braces. With time, your skin on the inside of your mouth will get tougher and you will not get sores anymore. To provide some relief in the early weeks, dry the bracket causing the problem with a tissue and then place a small, pea-sized amount of wax over the brace. The sore should improve within a couple of days and completely heal within a week. Call us for an appointment if it does not improve.

If the wire comes out of the tube, try placing it back in using tweezers. If necessary, cover the loose wire with wax and contact the practice for advice.
