Home Care

Oral Hygiene is an important part of dentistry, and it becomes even more important when braces are put on.

No one will be considered for comprehensive orthodontic treatment unless they demonstrate good oral hygiene with brushing and flossing, and present with healthy gums and teeth.

If someone is in need of improved gum and/or dental health, then they will be referred back to their usual dentist to ensure that everything is stabilised before the orthodontic treatment can begin.

Once your braces are put on, you will have an extensive chat on how to care and look after your braces, teeth and gums. You will also be given helpful pamphlets detailing on how to look after your braces and mouth at home. This will be aided by free toothbrushes and little “interdental brushes” throughout your treatment t ensure you are always on top of the game when it comes to looking after your teeth:)

Your oral hygiene will be monitored throughout the treatment period to make sure everything is in tip-top shape.

While we pride ourselves in giving you the beautiful smile you are after, the last thing you would want is nice straight teeth with lots of holes!
