Who needs to wear braces?

Wearing braces is a common way to correct dental deformities, but many people are unwilling to undergo dental correction because they are afraid of wearing braces, thinking that wearing braces will bring a lot of trouble to their daily lives. So who needs to wear braces? The following is a detailed introduction by dental experts from Qiankou Baihui Dental (Ningbo) chain organization. Dental experts from Qiankou Baihui Dental (Ningbo) chain organization said that actually wearing braces is not as troublesome as imagined. The key to keeping teeth and gums healthy is to clean the mouth correctly every day and remove plaque. Dental plaque is a colorless, sticky film of bacteria that often forms on the surface of teeth and is responsible for tooth decay and many gum diseases. But as long as you follow the steps below to clean your mouth, you're more than halfway there. 1. After wearing braces for the first time and after each follow-up visit, your teeth may experience mild reflective pain, which usually lasts for 3 to 5 days. If it does not decrease or worsens, you need to contact your doctor for a timely check-up. 2. People who wear fixed braces must pay attention to oral hygiene. You must brush your teeth in the morning and evening, after eating, and before a follow-up visit to remove soft plaque and food residue from the teeth. Otherwise, it will easily cause gingivitis, periodontitis and dental caries, affecting the progress of correction and oral health. 3. People who need to wear a headgear or an extra-oral bow must wear it for a specified amount of time every day. When removing the extra-oral bow, they should first remove the elastic ring and then remove the extra-oral bow to avoid damage to facial tissue. 4. During the fixed orthodontic treatment process, do not eat hard or sticky foods. Break large pieces of food into small pieces to prevent damage to the appliance. If you find that the band is loose or the arch wire is broken, you should contact the doctor promptly to determine the time for treatment. 5. Avoid eating sweets (candy), sticky foods (maltose), etc., and avoid eating hard foods (fruit cores, guava) to avoid chipping of teeth or breakage of metal wires. If you must eat it, be sure to cut it into small pieces or chop it before eating. 6. Chewing gum can help clean your mouth and train your teeth to bite. You can still eat it while wearing braces, but you still have to be careful not to stick it to your teeth. 7. During the correction process, you must follow the doctor's instructions for regular follow-up visits. If you do not return for timely follow-up visits or do not see the doctor for a long time, the treatment control of the corrected teeth will be lost, abnormal tooth displacement will occur, and there will be no progress in treatment. Dental experts from the Qiankou Baihui Dental (Ningbo) chain organization remind that the process of orthodontic treatment is very hard, and wearing braces is also very uncomfortable. However, for the sake of the beauty of tomorrow, please be sure to protect your teeth while wearing braces. Never let other dental diseases occur during the process of orthodontic treatment, as this will result in more losses than gains.
