The glue and cement that holds your brackets and bands on your teeth are only strong enough to move your teeth and cannot withstand the forces of biting improperly and eating the wrong foods. In the video you will see examples of the foods that should be avoided while in treatment.

El pegamento que sujeta los brackets y las bandas en los dientes solo son lo suficientemente fuertes para mover los dientes y no pueden resistir las fuerzas de morder incorrectamente y comer los alimentos inadecuados. En el video podrás ver ejemplos de los alimentos que deben evitarse durante el tratamiento.

Fixed retainers prevent your teeth from moving back into the previous position. A permanent retainer is a single wire made of metal or strong fiber fixed to your teeth using a special bonding agent.

Your braces by themselves do a great job of straightening your teeth and closing spaces. But there are certain bite problems that can’t be fixed with braces alone. This is where orthodontic rubber bands come in.

Dr. Yesenia Garcia, Board Certified Orthodontist in Pearland and Memorial, recommends bringing your child to the orthodontist no later than age 7. Here you have some of the reasons why:

• An orthodontist can spot subtle problems with jaw growth and emerging teeth while some baby teeth are still present. • While your child’s teeth may appear to be straight, there could be a problem that only an orthodontist can detect.

• The check-up may reveal developing problem but recommend monitoring the child’s growth and development, and then if indicated, begin treatment at the appropriate time for the child. In other cases, the orthodontist might find a problem that can benefit from early treatment.

• Early treatment may prevent more serious problems from developing and may make treatment at a later age shorter and less complicated.

• In some cases, the orthodontist will be able to achieve results that may not be possible once the face and jaws have finished growing. Through an early orthodontic evaluation, you’ll be giving your child the best opportunity for a healthy, beautiful smile.
