What Happens If You Have Braces and Don’t Brush Your Teeth?
It is essential to maintain proper oral hygiene, regardless if you are undergoing orthodontic treatment or not. Wearing braces just means you have to take extra care of your teeth, so you reduce any chances of developing other dental problems. Because of their design, braces are traps for plaque and food. Bacteria, food particles, and plaque will accumulate around the little brackets that are glued straight to your teeth. If these are not removed, they may demineralize the enamel around the bracket and form cavities.
If oral hygiene is not maintained when braces are removed, after your treatment, you could end up with a mouthful of cavities that need repairing or the worst case scenario is cavities could progress to the point of pain while you are still wearing your braces. In that case, you will have to see an orthodontic specialist and have the brackets removed, repair any cavities, remove plaque, reglue the brackets, and replace the wires.
When proper oral hygiene is not maintained, it leads to the formation of bacteria in your mouth. If this is not eliminated in time, it can destroy the tissue that supports the teeth. This leads to periodontal disease. Bacteria can also enter your bloodstream and potentially create other health problems. Wearing braces only amplifies these problems as you will have to remove braces with each visit to remove plaque, repair cavities or deal with any other dental issues that may appear due to inadequate oral hygiene.
It's so important that you do an efficient job with your oral hygiene. On occasion we have to make the choice between straight teeth or getting a mouth healthy. On this case we decided that the best thing is to get the mouth healthy is the most important. We can always revisit straightening the teeth at a later date.
