If you’re having a hard time coming up with a New Year’s resolution, you should think of your smile. You could make a resolution for your braces! If you do this, there is a good chance you could have a more effective orthodontic treatment and you could even get your braces off quicker. Who knows! Let’s give it a shot. Our orthodontistss, Drs. Liang and Liang, encourage you to make one or more of the following resolutions:
-Regularly attend your orthodontic adjustment appointments
-Don’t break your appliance (This means you need to stay away from hard-to-eat and sticky foods that break the brackets and bend the wires)
-Protect your mouth with a mouthguard when you participate in high-contact sports and activities
-Brush after every meal and snack
-Floss frequently. If you can floss after each time you brush, do it
-Attend your dental checkups every six months
-Follow your orthodontist’s instructions
-Clean your smile before every orthodontic adjustment and dental cleaning appointment
