[quote=Anonymous] Definitely call ahead at ortho office and have them lecture him. Pay ( if you have to) for frequent hygiene checks at orthodontist. A good orthodontist will remove braces if poor hygiene is causing too much gingivitis or decay. Google demineralization and braces and show him the photos- brown and white spots and holes. Tell him that bacteria are essentially crapping in his mouth- get disclosing tablets to show him where the plaque is. Tell him his breath stinks. I would personally brush his teeth and include a fluoride rinse after until he can prove he is capable. [/quote]
