PB Braces: Essential Do’s and Don’ts for Braces and Clear Aligners

Whether you're considering braces or clear aligners in West Palm Beach or Royal Palm Beach, knowing the best practices will help you achieve a perfect smile. PB Braces and KA Dental make it easy to access comprehensive orthodontic care, conveniently housed under the same roof. And if you need other dental services, KA Dental offers multidisciplinary solutions in Palm Beach Gardens, Boynton Beach, and both PB Braces locations.

Do’s for Braces and Clear Aligners

1. Use Proper Cleaning Tools
   Keeping your teeth and orthodontic devices clean is essential. Water flossers are highly effective in reaching those tight spots around braces, and ultrasonic cleaners are ideal for clear aligners.

2. Stay Consistent with Your Appointments
   Regular check-ups at PB Braces ensure your treatment is on track. With expert guidance from our team, you’ll enjoy optimal results.

3. Use Chewies for Clear Aligners
   Chewies help ensure a snug fit for clear aligners. They’re especially useful during the first few days of each new aligner set.

4. Maintain Good Oral Hygiene
   Brush and floss daily to prevent plaque build-up. PB Braces even offers $99 teeth cleanings through KA Dental, so you can maintain a fresh smile throughout your treatment.

Don’ts for Braces and Clear Aligners

1. Avoid Hard or Sticky Foods
   These can damage braces and get stuck in clear aligners. Choose softer options to avoid setbacks.

2. Skip Using Retainers After Treatment
   Once treatment is complete, retainers are crucial to maintaining your new smile. Not wearing them can lead to teeth shifting.

3. Neglect Replacement of Clear Aligners or Braces Components
   Damaged aligners or braces parts can affect progress. If you experience any issues, visit PB Braces for a quick fix.

4. Overlook Professional Cleaning
   While home care is essential, professional cleanings every six months help prevent stains and buildup. With KA Dental in the same location, your cleaning needs can be conveniently addressed.
