Sweet treats hit different when you have braces… and not always in a good way 😬🍭

If you’re going through orthodontic treatment, knowing how sugar and braces work together can save your smile.

Here’s why sugar is bad for teeth, especially with braces 👇

1️⃣ Sugar sticks around
Brackets and wires make it easier for sugar to hide

2️⃣ More plaque buildup
Sugar feeds bacteria, affecting braces oral hygiene

3️⃣ Higher risk of cavities
Cutting sugar helps prevent cavities with braces

4️⃣ White spots on teeth
Too much sugar can leave marks after braces

5️⃣ Gum problems
Poor braces care plus sugar can irritate gums

Taking care of your smile now makes a big difference later 💙
