Cleaning Dental Braces and Orthodontics
Today there are many ways to straighten teeth. Your orthodontist may develop treatment options that include dental braces, orthodontic appliances, or a combination of both.
One of the keys to effective orthodontic treatment is caring for your teeth and gums. Your orthodontist will explain the importance of good home dental care, so you get the best possible results from your investment.
Keeping your teeth clean and gums healthy require more effort when you have dental braces or orthodontic appliances. Waterpik® oral health products are easy-to-use and effective solutions for your orthodontic care needs.
