Braces can fix your teeth alignment—but without proper care, they can increase the risk of cavities and gum disease.

Orthodontic brackets create plaque traps around every tooth. If cleaning isn’t precise, bacteria build up along the gumline and around brackets, leading to early white spot lesions (demineralization), cavities, and inflamed, bleeding gums. What may look like “just stains” during treatment can become permanent enamel damage once the braces are removed.

That’s why oral hygiene during braces matters more than ever. Cleaning around brackets, between teeth, and along the gums isn’t optional—it’s what protects your enamel while your teeth are moving. Straight teeth are important, but keeping them healthy is what truly defines a successful result.

Baby teeth are temporary.
The damage from their cavities is not.

Inside a child’s jaw, permanent teeth begin forming years before they erupt. Their enamel is developing. Their crown shape is being built. Their structure is forming layer by layer.

When a cavity in a primary tooth progresses deep into the pulp, the infection does not remain isolated. The root tips of baby teeth sit very close to the developing permanent tooth germ. Inflammatory by-products and bacteria can disrupt normal enamel formation and crown development.

The damage may only become visible years later:

• Enamel hypoplasia
• White, yellow, or brown discoloration
• Weak enamel more prone to decay
• Crown malformation
• Altered eruption patterns

Primary teeth are biological placeholders. They guide eruption, preserve arch space, support jaw growth, and protect the tissues where permanent teeth are forming.

Early childhood caries is not a minor issue. It is an active infectious process within a developing craniofacial system.

What protects the permanent dentition?

• First dental visit by age 1
• Early caries risk assessment
• Age-appropriate fluoride exposure
• Timely treatment of cavities
• Immediate evaluation of swelling or pain

Preventing decay in baby teeth is preventive care for the adult smile.

Temporary teeth. Permanent consequences.

Regular Oral Prophylaxis is the key ❤️

Gum disease is not just an oral health issue—it’s a serious systemic health concern.

🔵 Here's how it happens:

When plaque builds up on teeth and gums, it harbors bacteria that cause inflammation. In periodontitis, these bacteria and inflammatory mediators can enter the bloodstream through bleeding gums.

Once in circulation, they can:

➡️ Trigger systemic inflammation that contributes to atherosclerosis (hardening of arteries).

➡️ Promote plaque buildup in blood vessels, increasing the risk of blockages.

➡️ Elevate C-reactive protein (CRP) levels, a marker associated with heart disease.

➡️ Potentially cause endothelial dysfunction, impairing blood vessel health.

Several studies show a strong link between chronic periodontal disease and increased risk of heart attacks, stroke, and even diabetes complications.

The AHR DENTAL CLINIC is still undergoing modifications to secure the safety of patients, clinic staff and dentist.

Also please be reminded that the clinic will not accept walk in patients who don’t undergo interview po.

All patients must undergo phone or online interview first. (Please be honest to answer all the questions, don’t be self-centered think of the people around you, I do have a family too that secures their safety, specially my kid)
I know everybody understand this protocol 😊

As soon as the clinic is ready, i will prioritize first my ortho patients and other pending cases.

Thank you for your understanding
