What types of braces do you offer, and how long will I need to wear them?
We offer metal, ceramic, and clear aligners. Most treatments last 6–24 months, followed by a retention phase — your orthodontist will give you a personalized timeline.
Do braces hurt, and what can I eat?
Some discomfort in the first few days after placement or adjustment is normal and usually eases quickly. Avoid hard, sticky, or chewy foods that can damage brackets and wires.
How often should I replace the electric toothbrush head, and how do I maintain it?
Replace the brush head every 3 months, or sooner if bristles fray. Rinse it after each use, air-dry occasionally, and store upright in a dry place.
Is an electric toothbrush safe for sensitive teeth and gums?
Yes — most models have a gentle sensitive mode and soft brush heads. If sensitivity is severe, check with your dentist first.
How often should I floss, and which should I choose — floss, floss picks, or interdental brushes?
Floss once a day, preferably before brushing at night. Floss suits tight gaps, floss picks are portable and easy to handle, and interdental brushes fit wider gaps — often recommended for braces or gum issues.
Can a water flosser replace traditional flossing?
It's a great supplement, but for most people it doesn't fully replace string floss — many dentists recommend using both for best results.
Soft, medium, or hard bristles — which manual toothbrush should I choose?
Soft bristles are recommended for most people — they clean effectively while being gentle on enamel and gums. Brush at least 2 minutes, twice a day, angling bristles 45° toward the gumline.
How often should I replace my oral care products?
Replace brush heads and manual toothbrushes every 3 months, water flosser nozzles every 3–6 months, and use floss picks once only. Replace any product sooner if it shows wear.
