Traditional braces are fixed onto the teeth with wires -- which can make it difficult to properly brush and floss. An ordinary toothbrush and dental floss will clean the teeth, but they can’t reach all the gaps and crevices formed by the braces’ wire supports. 

For the best oral care, it is advisable to use:

  • An electric toothbrush
  • Water flossers instead of floss
  • Anti-bacterial mouthwash

It is also very important to have your dentist carry out a thorough cleaning to reduce plaque and bacteria at regular intervals to prevent plaque build-up and possible tooth decay. Read more at https://yourdentalhealthresource.com/keeping-your-smile-healthy-while-you-have-braces/
