No. Braces are glued to the surface of the teeth and can be removed with no damage to the tooth. Poor brushing and oral hygiene can cause surface staining and decay around the braces that is obvious when they are removed but this is entirely avoidable.
We will give you comprehensive advice on how to clean with braces and provide you with a care pack including a braces toothbrush and super floss at your banding appointment. We will check your cleaning at every appointment and give you any advice necessary to clean well during your treatment.
