you probably need to floss, try superfloss, you can find this anywhere they sell normal floss, its made specifically for braces. You might need mouthwash as well. get yourself a whitening toothpaste and be sure to brush your tongue (as far back as you can without gagging), and brush the insides of your cheeks and gently on the roof of your mouth. Rinse well, use mouthwash, gargle, spit. Don't eat, drink or smoke for around 30 mins after. I carry a small travel size bottle of mouthwash and rinse after every meal.
Yeah you might want to change tooth paste. what do you use? I like to use crest makes my teeth feel so clean using mouth wash may help to and flossing is very important that way your getting what your tooth brush may have missed. Another idea is if you have your tonsil's still check and make sure all around them are clean of food because sometimes food gets stuck around them and if you don't gargle alot the food just sits there and rots in your mouth, very grouse. It's call tonsil cheese usually from eating to much bread or anything with lots of carbs. Talk your dentist
Perhaps food is becoming trapped under your gumline or around the braces somehow, and that can cause the breath to smell badly. You might like to consider buying an oral irrigator (a water-jet machine). This will blast water between the teeth, and around the braces, under the gumline, etc., and it will remove trapped food particles. I don't have braces, but I floss after I brush and I also use the irrigator, and it's amazing what the irrigator flushes out. Mouthwash can be added to the water to help freshen your mouth. Also, try changing toothpastes, and using a good mouthwash (one that is strong-tasting is better than the milder, sweet ones.)
idk google it
