🦷 BRACES AWARENESS: HUWAG LAGING MAG-SKIP NG APPOINTMENT!
“Doc, okay lang ba kahit hindi muna ako bumalik?” 😅
Kapag naka-braces, hindi sapat na nakakabit lang ang brackets. Kailangan ng regular na follow-up appointments para ma-monitor ang movement ng teeth, oral hygiene, wires, brackets, at overall progress ng treatment.
Kapag matagal na hindi nakabalik, maaaring magkaroon ng:
🦷 Plaque at tartar buildup
🦷 Gum inflammation / gingivitis
🦷 White spots o demineralization sa ngipin
🦷 Tooth decay/cavities
🦷 Loose or broken brackets/wires
🦷 Delayed or prolonged orthodontic treatment
🦷 Unwanted tooth movement kapag hindi properly monitored
Remember: Hindi porke't walang sakit, ibig sabihin ay walang problema. Some changes can develop gradually without noticeable symptoms.
📌 Regular orthodontic visits + proper brushing and oral hygiene = healthier teeth and safer braces treatment.
If you missed your scheduled appointment, don't wait for another problem to happen. Contact your dentist and schedule your follow-up. 🦷✨
