How to clean Gum Shield?

Before each use, brush the gum shield with a soft bristle toothbrush and a small amount of toothpaste. The gum shield cleaning process should be set as 1 minute for each plate. When cleaning the gum shield, make sure that it is thoroughly rinsed after each cleaning. We recommend the use of the gum shield cleaning product when necessary and once a week. Do not perform gum shield maintenance with denture cleansers. Do not wash with mouthwash products. These products can damage the gum shield surface and cause your plate to lose its transparency. When you remove Gum shield from your mouth, wash it immediately with cold water or under warm aka water. If you see residual or plaque on it, you can rub it a little using your hands. If you feel that Gum shield is not clean enough, it will be helpful to soak it in water for at least 5 minutes. You should avoid frequent prosthetic cleaners, mouthwashes, toothpaste, boiling water or any abrasive or whitening cleanser. All of this will damage your records. You can leave your plaques in a brow drop of vinegar or a teaspoon of carbonate in a solution that you will prepare. Using a soft-tipped toothbrush, brush your plaques under warm water in a paste-free manner. This will also allow you to clean all food residues and bacteria that are not cleaned in stages 1 and 2. In fact, brushing is the most important stage of gum shield cleaning. If you feel inadequate cleaning you can use liquid soap but do not use toothpaste. Finally, before you put your plaque in your mouth, repeat the first step, i.e. wash your plaque again. Make sure there is no residue from the cleanser. This way you can use your records as clean and solid as possible for as long as possible.

Use of Gum shield in orthodontics treatment

They are actually transparent plaques, referred to as transparent braces in orthodontic treatment. There are no braces actually. In order to eliminate the bad appearance of the braces, gum shield system has been developed. The biggest advantage of transparent braces from classical orthodontic treatment is that they do not appear. It is an ideal solution for people who cannot get braces because of their social environment or business life. It is also an important convenience that it can be attached and removable. Gum shield usage is very comfortable for patients. For example, when a patient undergoing braces eats, the food remains between the braces, there are wounds on the cheeks of his lips, and there are rules that must be followed to prevent the braces from being damaged while feeding. People who receive gum shield treatment do not experience similar problems. While eating, they remove gum shields and eat their food. Of course, this situation sometimes creates a disadvantage. In other words, the teeth of patients undergoing braces will recover in any case. But the teeth of people who are treated with gum shields will recover when they use regular gum shields. While preparing gum shield, you need your teeth size, photos and x-ray. Your x-ray is used to examine the root angles, lengths and positions of your teeth, while in your photos it is used to predict the appearance after your teeth are straightened. Gum fields are prepared on the computer. The measurements taken from your teeth are transferred to the computer by reading with optical readers. On the measurements transferred to the computer, their teeth are slightly corrected and a new measurement is created. The first plate is applied on the new impression created. Then the teeth on the new impression are corrected a little more and second plates are applied. In this way, 15-20 gum shields are created by correcting the teeth a little. Gum shield should be used 20 hours a day or more unless your doctor tells you otherwise. When you start using gum shield for the first time, your teeth will have pain like braces. Pain may occur in your teeth that are not accustomed to orthodontic force. If you have pain in your teeth in the first days you start using gum shield, you can get it from the painkiller you always use. This pain in your teeth is not a cause for concern.
