Before Leaving the Office
There are routine steps which we suggest you complete prior to leaving our office. These steps will minimize discomfort relating to irritation from your braces and ensure an optimal response to treatment.
- Use your finger and tongue to check that wire ends do not extend into areas which might poke or abrade the cheek or tongue.
- Be sure that our specific instructions and guidelines are clear. If not, we will be pleased to review them with you. This may include information about wearing headgear or elastics, adjusting an expander, or specific hygiene or diet tips.
- Make sure you have an adequate supply of dental wax, special cleaning aids, elastic bands, or other materials you may need between appointments.
- If you’re involved in extracurricular activities such as hockey, soccer, or any sport that requires a mouthguard, please let us know. We will be happy to provide you with one.
- Always schedule your next appointment before leaving the office. Waiting 1-2 weeks after an appointment before scheduling your next visit could delay your treatment.
