It aims to provide patients with guidelines on how to maintain good oral hygiene, clean their braces, and prevent any complications during the treatment process.
When it comes to diet, there are a few guidelines to follow. It is advisable to avoid hard and sticky foods that can potentially damage the braces or get stuck in them. Chewing on ice, biting into whole apples, or indulging in chewy candies might seem tempting, but it's best to steer clear of them during your orthodontic treatment. However, you can still enjoy most of your favorite foods as long as you cut them into smaller, bite-sized pieces.
Now, let's talk about activities. If you're an athlete or participate in contact sports, you may be relieved to know that lingual braces don't significantly restrict your athletic endeavors. However, it is crucial to wear a mouthguard to protect both your teeth and the braces during high-impact activities. Your orthodontist will provide you with a custom mouthguard that fits perfectly over your lingual braces, ensuring maximum protection.
While playing a musical instrument, you may experience a slight adjustment period. The brackets and wires on the back of your teeth may initially affect your ability to produce certain sounds or play certain instruments, such as the saxophone or flute. However, with practice and patience, most patients adapt and regain their musical finesse.
Regular oral hygiene is vital when wearing lingual braces, and a diligent routine can prevent any potential complications. It is recommended to brush your teeth after every meal and floss diligently to remove any food particles that may have become lodged between your teeth and braces. Special interdental brushes and oral irrigators can also help you keep your lingual braces clean and maintain optimal oral health.
Each patient's orthodontic journey is unique, and the length of treatment can vary. Regular check-ups with your orthodontist will allow them to assess your progress and make any necessary adjustments. Remember, the ultimate goal is to achieve that beautiful, confident smile you've always dreamed of, and lingual braces can help you get there!
So, fear not! While there are a few lifestyle adjustments to make, the benefits of lingual braces far outweigh the limitations. They provide excellent results while remaining hidden from view, giving you the confidence to flaunt your smile throughout your orthodontic journey. Embrace the process, follow your orthodontist's guidance, and soon enough, you'll be amazed at the transformative power of lingual braces!
