Brush Your Teeth Often

Brushing your teeth regularly is important but it’s even more important when you’re wearing braces.

Floss Regularly

Like brushing, flossing is a great way to keep your mouth clean. Flossing can help you get to some hard to reach places that a toothbrush can’t with the fine thread. It’s important not to pull too hard on your floss to avoid damaging your braces.

Stay Away from Specific Foods

Everyone who’s ever had braces knows you need to avoid hard, sticky foods like candy, popcorn, Peanuts, etc. but there are some others that can cause problems with clear braces. Due to the transparent nature, clear braces can get stained so staying away from foods or drinks that can stain your teeth like blueberries or red wine is a good idea.
