When Will You Get Your Braces Off?

Article by Dr. Leaver & Dr. Gardner

IT’S JUST ABOUT STRAIGHT TEETH, RIGHT?

WHAT OTHER FACTORS AFFECT WHEN MY BRACES COME OFF?

  • Avoid carbonated drinks like soda and sticky or gooey foods like gum, caramel, and other chewy candies, as well as popcorn. Constant chewing can compromise the integrity of your braces’ hardware.
  • Chop your food into smaller pieces and take time to chew slowly. This will help you avoid pain when chewing and helps prevent brackets and wire from breaking.
  • Brush and floss meticulously. You are more likely to avoid setbacks with healthy teeth and gums.
