2) Give the patient teeth cleaning if necessary**.

3) The patient forms and maintains good oral hygiene habits and learns to floss.

The following tests are generally done before correction:

1) Tooth marks: (i.e., take the model) for the doctor to diagnose and design the error and situation, and in the later process of comparison and examination.

2) Photography: **The former doctor should routinely take pictures of the patient's face** and occlusion**, and leave it for comparison with the end of ** at a later date.

3) X-ray: Lateral cranial radiographs and full-mouth curved tomography are routinely taken for each patient.

4) Make a plan: The doctor will diagnose the type of mismatch based on the model, X-rays, measurements, calculations, and develop a detailed plan. The doctor then explains the plan to the patient and the patient's family, and asks for the patient's and family's opinions.

If your teeth are not brushed cleanly, food remains between your teeth, which can lead to a large growth of bacteria, causing tooth decay or periodontal disease. If brushing your teeth after a meal is not convenient, rinse your mouth with water or tea.

Keep your mouth clean: Because orthodontic appliances are bonded to the teeth by adhesives, the orthodontic process uses orthodontic attachments to apply force to the teeth, causing the teeth to move. Using an orthodontic toothbrush, each time you need to brush lightly for a few more minutes, 3 to 5 minutes each time, orthodontic patients must maintain good oral hygiene.

Don't eat bone, hard-shell food: During the orthodontic process, you should also be careful to protect the aligners on your teeth. It is also necessary to prevent eating large pieces of food, such as cutting apples into small pieces before eating, so as to prevent the attachments of the aligners from falling off due to improper diet, so that the whole process of orthodontic treatment can be completed smoothly.

PostoperativelyZibo NuoermanThe doctor will explain some precautions according to the different characteristics of each person, and the beauty seeker should listen carefully to the doctor's advice and implement it.

1. Generally speaking, malocclusion in adults will be accompanied by some other oral diseases, such as caries, periodontal disease, missing teeth, etc., so it is necessary to fully control the periodontal disease before orthodontics, otherwise it will affect the use of aligners and the effect after correction.

2. Pay attention to oral hygiene during the orthodontic period, some people feel that it is more difficult to brush their teeth after wearing orthodontic appliances, so they simply do not brush, which is not right, even if it is difficult to brush, it is necessary to keep the oral cavity clean, so as to be more conducive to the good effect after correction.

3. In addition, don't think it's okay after orthodontics, the patient should return for regular follow-up, generally once a month, so that the doctor can make appropriate adjustments according to the specific degree of the patient's correction, so that the later correction effect is more obvious.

Regarding the matters that need to be paid attention to during orthodontics, here are the dental dentists who say that orthodontics is not an overnight thing, but a long-term process. In this long process, you need to pay attention to the following points: 1. Use fluoride toothpaste and a soft-bristled toothbrush designed for orthodontics.

It's best to go to dentistry to find out.

Hello, orthodontics needs to be based on the actual situation, mainly according to the situation of the teeth, through the physical effect of the interdental space, during the orthodontic period, it should be noted that the orthodontic appliance is bonded to the teeth by adhesive, the wrong eating habits will cause the appliance to often fall off or damaged, re-bonding the belt ring or bracket falling off will increase the cost and the number of follow-up visits, which will cause abnormal tooth movement, loss of anchorage, prolong the correction process, and even lead to orthodontic failure, This will cause unnecessary losses to the patient.

It is important to note: things that need to be gnawed or knocked cannot be eaten, such as melon seeds, peanuts, walnuts, sugarcane, etc.; Fruits such as apples, pears, and peaches should be cut into small pieces before eating; Large chops, chicken thighs, crabs, etc. must be cut with a knife or torn into small pieces of meat or shelled by hand before eating, and cannot be directly gnawed or torn with teeth; Non-rotten beef and other fiber-rich foods cannot be eaten; You can't eat things with cores directly, such as plum, bayberry, longan, jujube, etc., and you can only eat the meat on it after separating it from the core; Do not eat sticky foods, such as gummies, chewing gum and other sugar and glutinous rice products.

In orthodontics**, due to the impact of brackets, wires, rubber bands and other orthodontic devices on the self-cleaning of teeth, patients are required to brush their teeth carefully in the morning and evening and after each meal to thoroughly remove the soft scale and food residues on the tooth surface.

Brushing method: Vertical brushing. Horizontal brushing can remove brackets and damage teeth; Movements should be gentle and slow, 3 to 5 minutes each time; Every side of the tooth should be brushed, especially the rice, vegetables and other foods that are stuck between the teeth behind the wire.

If it is not easy to brush off, you can use a toothpick to pick it in the vertical direction, but you can't break the bracket or wire; Please use a small-headed soft-bristled children's toothbrush; If you don't eat at home, bring a toothbrush with you.

If you can't keep your mouth clean, it will cause tooth decalcification (commonly known as "tooth yellowing"), caries (commonly known as "insect teeth"), gum redness, bleeding and even periodontitis, which will affect the patient's oral health and hinder the smooth progress of orthodontics.

1. After wearing the appliance for the first time and after each follow-up visit, the oral mucosa may be worn out, and the teeth may have mild reactive discomfort or pain, which can be reduced or disappeared after 2-3 days, if the pain lasts for 4-6 days and does not reduce or even aggravates, please contact the doctor in time for examination.

2. If you find that the belt ring or bracket is loose, the arch wire is broken, etc., you should contact the doctor in time for medical examination. Do not move or adjust the steel wire on the appliance by yourself to prevent loosening, necrosis and affecting the teeth.

During the orthodontic period, in addition to obeying the doctor's instructions, you should also take care of the appliances on the teeth, avoid eating hard foods, such as bone foods, crabs, nuts, etc., and avoid eating large pieces of food, such as cutting apples into small pieces before eating, etc., to avoid the above foods and the practice of turning food into small ones, which can prevent the attachment of the appliance from loosening due to improper diet, so that the whole orthodontic process can be completed smoothly. In addition, you need to take special care of your teeth. There are normal bacteria in the human mouth, and there are also a large number of microorganisms in the air, and the mouth is often "in contact" with the outside world.
