After getting braces, you want to make sure you ask the orthodontist any questions that you have about how to care for them and what to do in an emergency. You’ll usually receive supplies to take home that can help with comfort the first few days, such as wax to put on the ends of the wires. Find out how often you need to have appointments so that your teeth can be checked and the wires tightened when needed. Contact Oakbrook Orthodontics for more information.
