New Year Braces Care

KCC Orthodontics wants to wish you a happy near year! Let’s celebrate by making a resolution to continue strong in your orthodontic treatment plan. For those with braces, it’s important to adhere to the regular rules of wear. Now is the perfect time to start fresh and rededicate yourself to your oral health. KCC Orthodontics has compiled a list of important rules to remember for braces wearers.

  • Stay away from crunchy snacks – Hard, crunchy snacks could damage the braces by breaking a bracket or snapping a wire. For a complete list of foods to avoid, check out our page on life with braces.
  • Brush your teeth and floss regularly – In order to properly care for your teeth, it’s important to keep them clean. Those who don’t may require additional care from their general dentist.
  • Quit the bad habit of nail biting – Much like eating crunchy snacks, nail biting could harm your braces. Doing so runs the risk of breaking a bracket or snapping a wire. Combine two resolutions in one by nixing the bad habit.
  • Continually wear your rubber bands – For those who use rubber bands as a part of your orthodontic treatment, it’s important to wear them consistently. By not doing so, you could be extending your treatment time.
  • Stay up to date on appointments – While schedules change, it’s a must to stay on track with your treatment plan. Dedicating yourself to consistent appointment times is a great way to do so.

KCC Orthodontics wants your new year to be the best it can be. For those with braces, remembering these important guidelines is a sure way to get your year off to a great start. With your dedication to your braces treatment plan, your smile is sure to look fresh and new.

Hey there! 👋 Meet our Treatment Coordinators, Nessa, Amy, and Kristy!

As a Treatment Coordinator or TC, these ladies' role is to meet with each one of our new patients!

You can expect them to listen to your needs and desires and then relay them to Dr. Gutierrez.

They’ll gather notes from Dr. G as he determines the correct treatment plan. 📝 Then explain all the ortho terms to you in a way you can better understand!

Our Treatment Coordinators will put together estimated fees based on your unique treatment plan and go over them with you.

Before ending your appointment, you’ll have time to ask questions or express any additional concerns.

At that time you can go ahead and schedule 🗓 if you’re ready to do so!

All of our consultations are complimentary (free of charge!). We can’t wait to meet you!

To schedule a consultation, fill out the request form on our website, kccortho.com (🔗link in bio!). Feel free to also contact us via phone! 📞 281-392-0888.
