advice & question from "old timer"

#1 Post by Marguerite »

First the advice: I got my lower braces off, and when I went to brush for the first time, it hurt awfully! So when you get your braces off, be very careful and use a new toothbrush that is very soft.
Now the question: why can't you use white strips with braces? will it actually damage the brackets?
