Are there rules to follow while having the braces on?

Yes, there are several important rules to follow while wearing braces. It's essential to maintain good oral hygiene by brushing and flossing regularly to prevent plaque buildup and cavities.

Regular check-ups with the orthodontist are also crucial to ensure the treatment progresses as planned.
