If you have dental braces then you know it’s a constant battle to control bacteria and keep down breath odor (halitosis). Not to mention the fact that many find them unsightly and often embarrassing. Teens hate braces.

Unfortunately sometimes they are a necessity. Teeth that are not aligned properly can get worse and drift cause bite and problems eating.

Braces on your teeth will require extra work to keep down bacteria because food particles can become trapped in the brackets and wires. The longer the particles remain chances increase that not only will your breath smell bad but dental disease can occur. Brushing and flossing is no easy task either. Many find that it is almost impossible to remove trapped food with a regular toothbrush.

The Proxy Brush (Christmas tree brush) was specifically designed clean teeth in between dental braces, under the wire and removes stubborn food particles. Xmas tree brushes can be found over the counter or at drug stores.
