Stay educated about healthy drink options for yourself and your children.
Soft Drinks + Orthodontic Treatment = A Recipe for Disaster
The American Association of Orthodontists recommends:
- Avoid soft drinks, especially during orthodontic treatment
- Drink water and milk
- Brush and floss as recommended
- Fluoride strengthens teeth- use fluoride toothpaste and a fluoride rinse
- See your dentist at least every 6 mo for a professional cleaning and check-up, or more often if recommended
