Making Treatment Go Smoothly in Higher Ogden
- Don't skip adjustment visits — each one keeps the plan on schedule; missing them just adds time later.
- Step up your cleaning routine — brackets and wires trap plaque, so interdental brushes and fluoride mouthwash matter more than usual.
- Aligner wear time is non-negotiable — under 20–22 hours a day and the plan slips, sometimes needing extra refinement trays.
- Report breakages same-day — a loose bracket or broken wire left unaddressed can undo weeks of progress.
- Retainers start the moment treatment ends — this is the single biggest factor in whether the result actually lasts.
