Orthodontic braces

General Instructions
  • Your appliance is fixed to your teeth and cannot be removed until the end of treatment.
  • Some discomfort may occur during the first few days.
  • Special attention must be paid to oral hygiene as your fixed appliance will make it more difficult for you to keep your teeth and gums clean.
  • If your appliance is causing persistent discomfort or becomes damaged or loose, book an appointment. If there is any sharp, projecting part of braces, cover it with orthodontic relief wax or wet cotton pellet. BRING ANY LOOSE BANDS AND ANY BROKEN PIECES.
  • You must continue to have ROUTINE DENTAL INSPECTIONS throughout your orthodontic treatment. If it becomes essential to change your next appointment, please let us know as soon as possible. Frequent delays make a good result unlikely.
