Traditional Orthodontics in Yaletown, Vancouver

Misaligned or crooked teeth can have detrimental effects on your oral health and self-esteem. Traditional braces are a tried-and-true method for straightening crooked teeth. When your teeth are in their proper positions, they are easier to clean and more aesthetically pleasing.

How to Care For Your Braces

Maintaining proper oral hygiene is key when you have braces. We recommend brushing your teeth twice a day using a soft-bristled toothbrush, flossing once daily with a special brace floss, and swishing with anti-bacterial mouthwash twice daily.

Dietary Restrictions

Braces come with a small set of dietary restrictions. Certain foods should be avoided to avoid food getting stuck in or damaging your braces. This includes crunchy foods like popcorn, chewy or sticky foods like caramel, and hard foods such as nuts.
