1. Keep your teeth and braces clean.
It’s important to brush your teeth after every meal to remove food and plaque from your teeth and braces. Use a toothbrush with soft bristles and a toothpaste that has fluoride.
2. Avoid hard and sticky foods.
Hard foods can damage your braces, and sticky foods can get stuck in the brackets and wires. Examples of foods to avoid include nuts, hard candies, and chewy candies.

3. Wear your rubber bands as prescribed.
If your orthodontist has prescribed rubber bands for your braces treatment, be sure to wear them as directed. Rubber bands help to move your teeth into the correct position.
4. Use wax to relieve irritation.
If the wires or brackets of your braces are causing irritation to your mouth, try using wax to cover the sharp edges. You can get orthodontic wax at your orthodontist’s office or at a pharmacy.
5. Attend all of your orthodontist appointments.
It’s important to keep all of your appointments with your orthodontist so that they can check the progress of your treatment and make any necessary adjustments.
Remember, it’s normal to feel some discomfort when you first get braces. However, if you’re experiencing a lot of pain or have any other concerns, be sure to contact your orthodontist. They’ll be able to help you manage your treatment and ensure that your braces are effective
