Best Practices for Braces
You’ve finally had your braces put on! Now that you know how much your treatment is going to cost, it’s time to consider what else you need for braces. Your orthodontist will likely give you specific recommendations based on your individual situation, but there are some products that most people get with their braces—and we’ll go over them here.
The biggest factor in deciding which extras are right for you is comfort. While some of these products can actually help make things more comfortable (like wax), others may be more about making things less awkward or unsightly (like hair ties). If something isn’t comfortable, don’t use it! That said, let’s take a look at what you might want to pick up: Wax.
Wax is probably one of the most common accessories used with braces. It helps protect against rubbing and chafing while also providing some cushioning between teeth and braces. Most braces color pallet come with wax, but if yours didn’t or if you lose it, pick up another pack at your local drugstore before heading home from your appointment. Hair Ties: Having long hair while wearing braces can be tricky because regular elastics could easily damage your wires by getting caught on them. Hair ties are designed specifically for longer hair and won't damage wires as easily as elastics do so they're an excellent choice if you have long hair and/or wear headbands often.
How Do I Choose A Lip Guard Color?
So, you’ve decided that you want a Lip-Lok and now you’re wondering What braces rubber band colors are available? If you check out our store on Amazon or eBay, you can see that we offer three colors: Pink, red and white. So, how do I pick? There are a couple of things to keep in mind when choosing your Lip-Lok color. First, think about what kind of impression you want to make. A pink Lip-Lok is going to make it seem like you are very feminine while a red one will make it seem like you’re more aggressive or even angry. You may also consider who will be seeing your braces with your Lip-Lok on. For example, if you work in an office setting where everyone wears business attire, then it probably won't matter much what color yours is but if most people wear casual clothes then maybe a white one would be best so as not to stand out too much from everyone else. The second thing to consider is whether or not comfort dental braces will fit over it easily.
