Hi,I have braces and how do you floss the backteeth?!

First of all you need to get your arch wire taken off by the orthodontist, then go to your general dentist for a cleaning!. The orthodontist will put the wire back after your cleaning and check up!. I'm surprised he/she hasn't sent you for a cleaning yet!. You need this every 6 mths!.
It's very difficult to floss in the back when you have bands on your molars!. You don't say if you have bands or brackets on them!.
Therefore, a waterpik is very useful when you have braces!.
Your dentist or orthodontist will show you how to floss and or waterpik!.
If you cannot afford a waterpik from the drugstore ask your dentist to order one wholesale for you!. I do that for my patients all the time!.
Good Luck!Www@Answer-Health@Com
