Precautions After Bracket Attachment

Oral Hygiene

  • Food can easily get stuck between the wires of your braces.
  • Please brush your teeth more thoroughly and carefully than usual to prevent cavities and gum problems.

Eating Habits

  • Avoid tough, hard, or sticky foods. These can cause the brackets or wires to come loose.
  • If a bracket or wire becomes detached, contact the clinic as soon as possible.
  • Please keep and bring any detached parts with you.
  • Frequent breakage or detachment of braces may extend your treatment period and make correction more difficult.
  • Additional costs may apply depending on the type of device.

Discomfort & Pain

  • Braces may sometimes cause small sores or irritation inside your mouth.
  • After each wire adjustment, your teeth may feel sore for 2–7 days. The discomfort usually decreases as you adjust.
  • If the pain is severe, you may take an over-the-counter pain reliever (e.g., Tylenol) as directed.

Cooperation & Appointments

  • Your cooperation is essential for successful treatment.
  • Please visit the clinic according to your scheduled appointments.
  • If you are unable to attend, call the clinic in advance to reschedule.
