teeth filing after brace removal??

#1 Post by themagician »

Hi all!

I am due to get my braces off in a few weeks and was wondering if at the same time my ortho would file the bases of my teeth to ensure they were even?

Or is this an elective procedure that i would need to make an appointment with my dentist for?

I am a private patient in scotland btw.

Thanks everyone!:)

your doc removing the braces should be able to do minor edge polishing
