Teenage orthodontic care requires discipline and awareness. Here’s how teens can care for their dental appliances:
- Oral Hygiene: Brush thoroughly after every meal and floss at least once a day.
- Avoid Problem Foods: Sticky candy, chewing gum, popcorn, and hard snacks should be avoided.
- Aligner Care: Invisalign should be worn 20-22 hours daily and cleaned regularly.
- Use a Retainer: After treatment, wearing a retainer keeps teeth in their new positions.
- Stay Positive: Braces or aligners are a temporary step to a lifelong beautiful smile.
Arya Dental Clinic provides special care plans and monitoring for teen orthodontic patients.
