SPACER INSTRUCTIONS
 |
1. DO NOT REMOVE THESE SPACERS. Spacers are designed to "make
space" for the back molar bands. This will make your next appointment
easier and faster.
2. Spacers feel like something is caught between your teeth... that's
because something is caught between your teeth. If you ever had
popcorn or meat caught, you know the feeling.
3. Brush normally - you cannot brush the spacers away.
4. Floss normally - but DO NOT floss the spacers.
5. If a spacer is lost, it does not need to be replaced.
6. If necessary, take aspirin or Tylenol (or your regular pain medication as
directed). Rinse with warm salt water (1 tablespoon of salt in 8 oz. of
warm water) 3 - 4 times per day.
7. The spacers will be removed on the day your braces are placed.
