Beverages That Are Bad For Braces

When being treated at Bailey Orthodontics, patients are encouraged to make necessary to make diet modifications to protect the braces and to ensure the health of the tissues in the mouth. It is advised by Dr. Bailey to avoid or completely eliminate a list of beverages during treatment for this reason.

Drinks suggestive of causing dental decay by your dentist should be restricted while having braces on. This includes drinks high in sugar and acid. If high sugary food is to be consumed, it is limited to meal times or once in a day. The mouth produces more saliva during meals which, in turn help to neutralize the acids and rinse food from mouth. In between snacks should be confined to those without refined sugar and avoided if possible.

• Fizzy/ soft drinks – sodas especially cola 
• Sports drinks – isotonic and energy drinks 
• Fruit juices – lemon juice has citric acid 
• Sweetened liquids – syrup and honey 

What drinks are safe?
Water from the tap is proven to be the best. It is a natural source and is rich in fluoride. 6-8 glasses of water per day will keep you away from sugary drinks and fatty foods high in sugar. It helps to wash away food coloring and chemicals and sugars consumed from soda. This feature is absent with mineral water. Milk is another alternative, low in sugar and acids, with an added benefit high in calcium, keeping your teeth and bone strong and healthy. Drinks like 7up do not have these acids.

Learn About Early Orthodontic Treatment

As a father himself, Dr. Bailey understands children can be intimidated by dental environments and believes it's important to make them feel comfortable and safe. Many children end up loving their visits to Bailey Orthodontics!

To help your child achieve a healthy beautiful straight smile for life, it is advised that they visit our practice at around age seven for an orthodontic assessment. By this age, many problems can be identified and dealt with.

Areas of orthodontic treatment for children include:

• Cross bites (reversed bites)
• Missing teeth
• Extra teeth
• Thumb and finger sucking habits
• Crowding
• Spacing
• Ectopic teeth
• More

Is your child a candidate for early orthodontic treatment? If you think so or aren't sure, contact us to schedule an examination at Bailey Orthodontics. We're located in Surprise, Arizona, we treat patients from the Surprise, Waddell, Phoenix, Peoria, Glendale, El Mirage, Buckeye, Verrado, Wickenburg, Goodyear, Litchfield Park, Wittman and Avondale areas. We strive to help patients of all ages achieve beautiful, healthy, confident smiles! Call 623-977-0707.

Back To School

Now that many of the schools in Surprise, AZ are back in session, Dr. Bailey would like to remind all of our patients about the importance of scheduling appointments in advance. With school, clubs, sports, and family duties to consider, we know that it can be challenging to find time to visit Bailey Orthodontics this fall. In order to accommodate all of our patients’ busy schedules, it is important that you plan ahead for your appointments so that we are able to provide you with a convenient appointment time.

As always, please remember to give us advanced notice if you’re unable to make your regularly scheduled appointment with Dr. Bailey and our team. Feel free to give us a call if you have any questions, or if you would like to schedule your fall appointment.

We’ll see you soon and hope summer is winding down nicely for you and your family!
