First Aid for Braces

What to do for pain?

What to do in case of pain or problems with the (invisible) braces?

The time required for the patient to get used to the new braces varies from individual to individual. It comprises approx. 1 to 2 weeks.

If necessary, you can use a painkiller after consulting the doctor. (Otherwise, please follow the manufacturer's dosage instructions).

As a first aid in case of pain or problems with the (fixed or invisible) braces, you will find the first answers to your questions on this page.
