Question:
How often should I Brush my Teeth if I have braces?
People say that if you dont brush enough, you get white spots. Well, i brush 2 times a day. is that enough? or should i brush a 3rd time. Could you brush your teeth too much that you would have yellow spots?
Answers:
3-4 times is better.
The Sonicare Elite is my top choice for someone with braces. There are many different model designations, but the "motors" are all pretty much the same. The kits are different because they pack different accessories. Some have two brush heads and some have four. Some have a travel bag and some have a wall-mount charger instead of a counter top charger. Just read the label carefully and buy what you need. Bear in mind that you will have to replace the brush heads about every six months, so see if it is cheaper to buy a few extra brush heads in one of the kits.
Otherwise, buy a Sonicare, read and follow the directions. The directions are very clear and easy to understand.
If you want to try a Sonicare without taking out a loan, I've got ood news for you. I just bought one for THIRTY DOLLARS. It uses two "AA" batteries, so you are not paying for a charger, etc. I have no idea how long the batteries last (yet), but $70 would buy a boat load of batteries. It seems to be equally effective as the rechargeable version when you are using new batteries.
