dw, they polish your teeth and while they do this, ur teeth won%26#039;t shift in a few minutes so relax. they no what there doing
Reply:yes, it sure is.
Reply:The Orhtodontist or his Assistant that removes your braces will remove all of the cement that he or she sees. I do not think they will give you a good professional prophylaxis.


I would return to your regular Dentist for a good cleaning. Removing the retainer for a few minutes wiil not harm a thing.
Reply:Yes, you should have a dental cleaning after your braces are removed.


This will remove any staining or bonding that is left on your teeth.


No, you don %26#039;t need to wear your retainer while they clean your teeth.


It%26#039;s OK to leave your retainer off for a little while. You won%26#039;t eat with your retainer in either.


Just remember to put your retainer in a safe place while eating or getting your teeth cleaned.


Your orthodontist will give you info. once they are removed.


As long as you wear your retainer most of the time you%26#039;ll be OK. :)
Reply:um... i don%26#039;t see why not. ask your ortho
Reply:It%26#039;s the best time...it will also help to get the remainder of your cement off...and no, you don%26#039;t have to keep your retainer in for the cleaning...your teeth won%26#039;t shift that fast
Reply:first of all, a cleaning should take no more than 45 minutes tops. ur teeth are not going to shift in this amount of time. it is important that you get ur teeth cleaned after ur braces are off to get the glue, etc. off, but you should wait a week or two since your teeth might be sensitive. your teeth won%26#039;t shift if you take out the retainer periodically - just not for days at a time.
