If you know of someone about to start radiation or has had radiation, please encourage them to have a dental exam. Most oncologists recommend it, however, patients don’t always listen due to being overwhelmed and/or money. Oral health is very important!

Attn:: Orthodontists don’t clean teeth!!

This is why your orthodontist recommends cleanings every 3 months when in braces! You must have good oral hygiene before getting braces so you can maintain beautiful healthy teeth when in braces! Otherwise the out come is expensive!

This is why maintaining good oral hygiene is crucial during braces treatment.

Braces can straighten your teeth—but poor oral hygiene during treatment can lead to cavities and gum disease.

Braces make it easier for plaque and food particles to collect around brackets, wires, and along the gumline. If these areas are not cleaned thoroughly every day, harmful bacteria can multiply, increasing the risk of white spot lesions (early enamel demineralization), tooth decay, and gum inflammation.

Those chalky white marks that sometimes appear after braces are not just stains—they are areas where the enamel has permanently lost minerals. Without timely care, these weakened areas can progress into cavities, while plaque buildup around the gums may lead to gingivitis and, if left untreated, periodontal disease.

Maintaining excellent oral hygiene during orthodontic treatment is just as important as wearing the braces themselves. Careful brushing around every bracket, daily interdental cleaning, fluoride use when recommended, and regular dental check-ups help protect the teeth while they are being moved into their ideal position.

A successful orthodontic treatment is not measured only by straight teeth—it is measured by straight, healthy, cavity-free teeth with healthy gums.
