Floss daily
Use dental floss every day to get between your teeth where a toothbrush can’t reach. Use the reusable floss threader we gave you to floss daily under your archwire. Slide a small length of floss up and down along the front of each tooth. Your gums may bleed a little when first you begin flossing. If bleeding continues after the first few times, be sure to let us know at your next appointment.

Caring for your teeth
When your teeth or jaw structure don’t fit together properly, orthodontic treatment may be necessary to straighten them and promote ideal function. Left untreated, these problems, often referred to as malocclusions (or bad bites), can cause speech difficulty, premature wear of your teeth and protective enamel and even increase your chance of teeth and jaw joint injury. We can help solve your concerns.
