Braces can do amazing things for your smile, but they can also create extra places for food and plaque to hide.

If you've noticed your breath isn't as fresh as you'd like, these common habits could be the reason:

🦷 Skipping brushing after meals
Food can easily get trapped around brackets and wires.

🚫 Rushing through flossing
The spaces between your teeth need attention too.

πŸ₯€ Reaching for sugary drinks too often
Sugar feeds bacteria that can contribute to unpleasant odors.

πŸ’§ Not drinking enough water
A dry mouth can make bad breath worse.

πŸ‘… Forgetting to clean your tongue
Bacteria can build up on the tongue and affect breath freshness.

Fresh Breath Day is a great reminder that keeping your mouth clean doesn't just support your orthodontic treatment but also helps you feel more confident every time you smile. πŸ˜πŸ’™
