Help with braces?!
Question: I have braces on and i have puffy gums. They're all pink and like they sometimes bleed. Its hard to work on my braces cuz my gums are so puffy they're really close to the brackets on my gums. I'm using Peroxyl(it helps the puffiness) and i try to brush alot...my ortho said to goup and down with the brush and its ok if they start to bleed. Anything else i could do to help this?

You have to keep you teeth clean. Meaning brush and floss all the time.......
When I had braces and my gums bled, my orthodontist told me to remember to floss.
