Can you floss if you have braces ??!
Question: Can you floss if you have braces !?!?
Just wondering lolWww@Answer-Health@Com
Answers:
You HAVE to floss while having ortho treatment!. Why!? Because your braces will trap food more easily, which will cause more bacteria to settled around your gums!. The more bacteria settling, the more swelling, bleeding and bone loss you can suffer!.
Purchase some "floss threaders"!. You can find them at any pharmacy, or sometimes your orthodontist can give you some!. Floss at least 2 times a day!. You'd hate to go through all that ortho treatment, then end up losing your teeth because you didn't floss, right!?

Both of my kids used toothpicks!. It isn't dangerous to use toothpicks if your careful!. Just take the toothpick along the gum line and the teeth!. They used a waterpik too and made sure the water pressure wasn't high enough to damage the gums!. Their teeth and gums are healthy!. They also used the little proxy brushes that look like christmas trees!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
