Can braces be cleaned with a regular toothbrush?
The doctor's answer
All tooth surfaces that do not have a bracket on them should be cleaned with a regular toothbrush, as before the system was fixed. The outer surface of the bracket can be brushed with a regular toothbrush or a special orthodontic toothbrush with a slit in the bristles for better cleaning of the bracket.
In addition to regular and orthodontic toothbrushes, it is important to clean the surface between the bracket and the gum with a special mono-bead brush, and to clean the spaces between the teeth with toothbrushes and floss.
