What to Expect During Your Child Braces's Experience?

First Day of Getting Braces

On the first day, regardless if your child reports no discomfort, give them softer food options such as soup, mac and cheese etc. Drink water, have them brush their teeth gently, and go to sleep early. Be aware that certain snacks purchased may damage braces. Brushing every night before bedtime is habitual. Please make sure your child is following the instructions given to taking care of his/her braces.

The clinical staff at MBO are committed to providing the best orthodontic care for your child. Our doctors have designed your child a unique individualized plan tailored for them before the braces were placed on their teeth. Our doctors and orthodontic assistants are committed to providing the highest level of service which includes a focus on skill and technique, sterile and high quality instruments, and clear communication with patients and parents. We value our community and look forward to embarking on this journey together.

You can contact the clinical team at hello@mbosmiles.com if you have any treatment plan related questions. Please understand that most questions pertaining to treatment progress are best answered in person with records for comparison. Also questions pertaining to treatment time remaining should be asked closer to the end of treatment; unless there is a special situation.

If there are any issues with brace breakage or poky wires, please call the front desk to schedule an appointment at (212) 274-0477.
