1. Fixed appliance is the most widely used appliance at present. It is bonded to the teeth through special materials. After two to five days, the teeth may feel sore due to stress. Oral mucosa may also be scratched by appliances, but these can be tolerated and prevented, and will disappear automatically after one week. You don't usually need to take medicine. After each follow-up visit, the patient may feel tight teeth and pain, but it is very mild. On the contrary, severe pain is not normal.
You can brush your teeth by putting on the appliance, so be more careful. You must pay attention to oral hygiene and choose the right toothbrush and brushing method. Brush your teeth after every meal.
3. Correcting teeth will not affect eating. But pay attention to eating too hard and sticky food, including hard candy, soft candy, plum, peanuts, bones, barbecue, sugar cane, apples, pears and so on. Some foods we really want to eat, such as ribs, chickens and ducks, can be picked and enjoyed, apples and pears can be sliced and eaten, and sugar cane can be juiced and drunk.
