Orthodontics is the specialty within dentistry that corrects and prevents changes in the position of the teeth and jaws. For this, today there are various types of techniques, among which we can distinguish those used by fixed and removable orthodontic appliances.
Each of these orthodontic techniques requires proper maintenance and brushing technique. Although wearers of removable orthodontic appliances can remove them to facilitate oral hygiene, in the case of braces brushing requires a more definitive procedure.
This time we will focus on how to brush your teeth with braces to avoid infection and gingivitis. With complete oral hygiene, a patient with fixed orthodontic appliances will be able to prevent common problems such as stains on the teeth, tartar build-up, cavities, bad breath, and more.
