Sarah Burns Orthodontics: Removable Braces



	What about tooth brushing? It is important you brush well three times per day and use fluoride toothpaste. If possible carry a brush with you for use after lunch. Take the brace out to clean your teeth. You should also gently brush the brace, taking care not to damage the wires. A daily fluoride mouth rinse should be used last thing at night, after tooth brushing. Failure to keep your teeth and brace clean will lead to permanent scarring of your teeth. Can I remove the brace? Yes but you should only remove it for cleaning, sport activities and swimming. Do not repeatedly click the brace in and out with your tongue as this will break the wires and increase the length of time the treatment will take.
