Are you visiting us for adult braces? If so, you may find that as you become accustomed to wearing an orthodontic treatment on your smile, things get easier and easier. Eating easily and speaking articulately becomes second nature. You even find a rhythm with your dental hygiene. However, you may find that leaving your arsenal of oral health care products at home can leave you feeling a bit stranded. Good news! We have some helpful suggestions for on-the-go care items that will help you out when you’re away from home.

Unfortunately, we find ourselves meeting many patients who come in worried because – though they are excited about orthodontic care to attain a lovely, straight smile – they have heard some negative reports from friends. Or, they have spent some time on the Internet and are worried that orthodontics is too good to be true. Fortunately, we are ready to address any rumors or misinformation you may have swimming around in your mind, so you can move forward with the orthodontic treatment you need in confidence.
