I have crooked teeth and I'm going to the dentist regularly for my gum disease. Will wearing braces affect my gum treatment?

Wearing braces should not affect your gum treatment but may add extra responsibility on you to clean your teeth better. You will require additional cleansing aids and more cleaning appointments with your dentist to up keep with your oral hygiene. In fact, many people elect to go for braces to straighten their crooked teeth so that they can clean and maintain the health of their teeth and gums easier.
