How do I care for my braces or aligners?

Good oral hygiene is essential throughout orthodontic treatment.

For braces:

• Brush thoroughly after every meal.
• Floss daily using orthodontic-friendly flossing aids.
• Avoid hard, sticky or chewy foods that may damage your braces.

For clear aligners:

• Remove aligners before eating or drinking anything other than water.
• Brush your teeth before reinserting them.
• Clean your aligners daily using lukewarm water and a soft toothbrush or aligner cleaner.

We’ll provide detailed care instructions when your treatment begins.
