Those who wear the non-removable orthodontic appliances known, as braces must guard against stains and decay springing up around the edges of brackets and bands by paying meticulous attention to oral hygiene. In addition to routine brushing at least three times per day, all orthodontic patients should also practice daily flossing. Since brushing and flossing with braces can be challenging for many patients, there are many tools and techniques that we can offer to make these challenges simple to overcome. We recommend that all our patients also use a fluoride rinse at bedtime to preserve the health and integrity of their teeth. Dr. Nelson Hersh Dr. Marsha Beattie Dr. Amy Isenberg Licensed Specialists for Children & Adults West Bloomfield Commerce Township 248.926.4100 Waterford 248-673-4100 While an electric toothbrush may help many patients, any soft bristle toothbrush can be used. If the plaque is properly removed, the teeth will move more efficiently, remain cavity-free, and stain-free. For patients with work or school, our office also provides a travel toothbrush, which makes it more convenient to brush when not at home. In general, excellent orthodontic treatment can only be obtained with cooperative and informed patients. Once orthodontic therapy begins, the patient will be expected to continue to see the family dentist for regular check-ups, dental cleanings and routine care. Routine dental care will help ensure the best results from orthodontic therapy and allow us to work with your dentist to create a beautiful and healthy smile to last a lifetime!! Drs. Hersh, Beattie and Isenberg invite you to join our patient family.
