Happy Easter. 

We wish you a great holiday break. 

However, a chocolate Easter bunny is a nice treat; however, be careful of hidden dangers.

Chocolate with fruit and nut: the nuts are too hard and may cause brackets to come off. The raisins are very sticky and will get stuck around your appliance.

Chocolate that contains caramel is very sticky and chewy and should be avoided.

Chocolate that contains nougat: Nougat gets stuck around your appliance.

Chocolate from the fridge is too hard to eat whilst wearing orthodontic appliances; ensure it is at room temperature before consuming.

However, we advise avoiding sugary foods while wearing braces. While wearing your braces, you will want to avoid extremely soft, chewy or sticky foods that contain a large amount of sugar or starch. Foods that are safe and unsafe while you are wearing your braces.

Cake and pies

Energy drinks

Extremely soft bread

Fruit juices

Gum

Heavily processed foods

Ice cream

Fizzes

Sports drinks

And it is essential to brush your teeth 30 minutes after every meal. 

This role will keep your teeth nice and healthy throughout orthodontic treatment.

You can start orthodontic treatment while you still have some baby teeth.

Orthodontics can help correct your child’s bite before their adult teeth come in. The recommended age to visit an orthodontist is the age of seven. It is the ideal age for several reasons. 

First, it is beneficial to the orthodontist to see how the smile is shaping up with the mix of baby and permanent teeth. 

Second, Bachmann Orthodontics can monitor the eruption pattern of permanent teeth, jaw growth and development, and spot any issues that might become more serious as the permanent teeth begin to erupt.

In some cases, if we wait until all the baby teeth have fallen out, that may be too late to create an ideal smile most effectively. But on the other hand, treating patients while still having some baby teeth can create a perfect environment into which the permanent teeth can erupt. And often, this means later treatment is more effective and efficient.

The younger your child is, the more straightforward orthodontic treatment can be. The most important reason is that both the upper and lower jaws are still growing. This is giving us the chance to guide their development to ensure we can reduce crowding and help the permanent teeth erupt correctly.

Free monitoring program

We have implemented a free, regular oral development monitoring program for your child to ensure we begin their treatment at the best time possible. In addition, we have many years of experience & training in assessing a child’s pace of oral development. Therefore, it is usually immediately evident to us what level of treatment will be required.

When we assess a child or young adult, we always consider what their teeth are likely to do between the time we first see them and when their treatment is expected to begin. As a result, we can more accurately estimate the best age for braces in their specific case. In addition, we constantly tailor our orthodontic treatment programs to each and their needs.

Getting braces doesn’t hurt, but your mouth may be sensitive in the days following your appointment. Therefore, eating foods that have a tougher texture could cause pain.

Since you’ll also have to learn how to chew differently, your orthodontist will likely recommend only eating soft foods for the first few days.

Ideal foods to eat after getting braces include:

• mashed potatoes
• yogurt
• soups
• scrambled eggs
• oatmeal
• grains
• seafood
• soft fruits
• soft cheeses
• cooked or soft vegetables
• moist desserts
• pasta

Basically, anything that’s easy to chew.

What to keep avoiding while you have braces

Be mindful that braces are sensitive to damage, so you’ll need to avoid certain foods for as long as you have braces.

These include sticky and hard foods that can damage the wires or bands or cause a bracket to separate from a tooth.

Foods to completely avoid with braces include:

• popcorn
• nuts
• ice
• chewing gum
• hard candy
• chewy candy
• pizza crust
• bagels and other hard rolls
• crunchy vegetables and fruits
• hard crackers
• pretzels
• chips

Also, limit consumption of sugary foods and drinks while having braces. When sugar mixes with saliva, it creates a sticky film (plaque) that coats the teeth.

Brushing can remove plaque, but that becomes harder to do with braces. And if you’re unable to remove this sticky film, there’s a risk of tooth decay.

Dogs are attracted by the smell of the materials from which retainers & aligners are made, as well as saliva. With their powerful jaws, dogs can render them useless in no time. Likewise, cats will play with a retainer and can also damage them.
Be Careful with Retainers
There are two places for removable aligners and retainers: in the mouth or in their case. When taken out of the mouth, they should be placed in their case. When taken out of their case, the retainers or aligners should be placed in the mouth.

Do not wrap it in a napkin – they can easily be thrown away with the trash. Please, do not place retainers or aligners in your pocket unless they are in their protective case. Without the case, retainers that are loose in your pocket can be broken.
Contact your orthodontist immediately if they are lost or broken, however, if it does not fit correctly or if eaten by your dog. Remember – you need to wear your retainers or aligner, not your dog.

Smiling more often can help with self-confidence and improve health. The chemicals that are released when a person smiles help fight symptoms of depression and fatigue. Smiling is also known to be contagious. So it can help feel better and help someone else feel better too when a smile is shared. Smiling more often can make a whole place feel good!
However, it is always good to smile.

Do not hesitate to call Candice 09 448 1128 and book your Bachmannsmile consultation today.

Smile more, worry less.
