Daily Oral Care Regime for Fixed Brace Patients

Congratulations! You’re on a journey to achieving a straighter, healthier smile.
While braces are a big step, they come with unique oral health challenges, so it’s essential to follow a dedicated care routine.
Here’s our recommended daily guide to keeping your teeth and gums in top condition:
- Brush After Meals (3 times a day)
- Rinse First: Start by rinsing your mouth with water to loosen food particles caught in your braces.
- Clean Between the Teeth: Use an interdental brush or floss to removes debris and plaque from between your teeth and braces.
- Brush Thoroughly (2-3 mins): Use VITIS Orthodontic toothpaste and a soft-bristled or orthodontic toothbrush. Angle your brush to clean around brackets and wires, ensuring every surface is reached.
- Between Meals & After Snacks Rinse with VITIS Orthodontic Mouthwash to:
-
- Remove food debris.
- Fight bacteria.
- Strengthen enamel with fluoride while soothing gums with aloe vera and allantoin.
General Tips
- Avoid Hard and Sticky Foods: They can damage your braces or get stuck, making cleaning harder.
- Stay Hydrated: Drinking water helps wash away food particles and bacteria.
- Visit Your Orthodontist Regularly: For check-ups, adjustments and professional cleaning.
- Apply VITIS Orthodontic Wax: To protect any areas where your braces might cause irritation.
By maintaining consistency with this routine, you’ll not only ensure successful treatment results but also protect your oral health, leading to a bright and beautiful smile!
