Guide
to removable appliances
- Wear
this brace AT ALL TIMES except when you clean your teeth
or if you play a contact sport such as rugby.
- It
will take 3 days of perseverance in learning how to eat
and speak. If you cannot wear it please let me know.
- If
one of the attachments breaks try to keep the appliance
in your mouth until your next appointment otherwise the
teeth will drift back to their old positions. Do not wear
a broken appliance while eating.
- Keep
the appliance clean using a toothbrush after meals and when
you clean your teeth.
- Remember
that you should continue to visit you own dentist for regular
check-ups during your orthodontic treatment.
