With braces when you can also wash teeth, if there are dental calculus or plaque around the braces need to be removed, you must remove the braces. In the process of orthodontic teeth, because the brackets or attachments on the teeth are more, it is easy to cause dental calculus or plaque accumulation, you must wash teeth as soon as possible, otherwise it may cause tooth demineralization or even tooth decay. If there is calculus or plaque at the gingival margin, you can clean your teeth without removing the brackets. However, orthodontic arch wires must be removed before cleaning.
