When you get your braces on do you get something from the Orthodontist?

Question

My cousin got a goodie bag from his Ortho. What does the orthodontist usually give you after you get your braces on?

Answer 1

Nothing interesting.  Just a toothbrush with a wire thingy at the end and some instructions.  Wax too if your braces are poking you.  Then you have to buy flouride rinse.  It IS free, just not the rinse!

Answer 2

I had braces. I don't recall getting anything, so if I did, then it wasn't anything special. Probably some toothpaste, floss, etc.  

Answer 3

you get a spiral tooth brush for cleaning under the wire and between the brackets, some brace wax to put on the parts of your brace that rub on your mouth, some special tooth paste you use once a night before you got to bed to keep your brace clean and some leaflets on proper brace care. that's what i got anyway. it cost £12 though, its not free.

Answer 4

Umm, Braces I think.

Answer 5

Answer 6

wax and a mini toothbrush, toothpaste, and a booklet that talks about what i am getting done, what to expect, care, etc
