Everyone wants to be able to show his/her big bright smile. That’s why taking special care of our teeth while we are on our braces is critically important. Brackets and bands can trap bits of food that allows bacteria and plaque built upon your teeth. This could potentially develop into gum diseases and cause bad breath.

To prevent all of those from happening, it is suggested to use Oral-B electric toothbrush to brush your teeth twice a day for at least 2 minutes each. The oscillating rotating technology makes your brushing easier and more effective. Hold the brush parallel to the floor against the side your teeth. Follow the natural curve of your teeth and gums and guide the power brush head from tooth to tooth. Hold the brush in place on each tooth for a few seconds to let it do work for you. Brush your tongue in the end to refresh your breath and remove any extra food.

To be coached on how to brush your teeth correctly, you can also download this cool app and ask your dental professional to program it for you. It tracks your brushing movement by using position detection and facial recognition technology. The visualized graph shows how well you brush in all six areas of your mouth so that you will never miss a single zone in your mouth.
Flossing is important after you brush your teeth because it removes the bits of food trapped in your braces that couldn’t be simply brushed away. Crest + Oral-B provides a special “threader floss” with stiff end that allows you to thread the floss between your brackets. Make sure to floss below the gum line using a gentle up-and-down motion. Finally, rinse with mouthwash after you brush and floss to get rid of every last bit of food and plaque.
