Question: Can you get braces the same day or week you get your cavities drilled and filled?
So my mom is going to make me an orthodontist appointment. I know I have a few cavities & I have unfortunately never been to a dentist in my entire life & I am 16. So needless to say that when I go to the orthodontist after they clean my teeth and make another appointment, I'm looking at getting my cavities drilled and filled. Can I get braces the same day? If not the same day, may I get them the same week? If not how soon?
Answers:
I'm no dentist but I do have braces and had oral surgery with them on and they were fine. I think you should get your braces at least a couple of days after the filling the cavities because braces can be painful and you don't want to stress yourself out. That's just from my experience I think you should ask the orthodontist.
