Bracket
Tumblr media
I tried my best (with my limited knowledge of popularity) to make it as equal as I could....
Round 1 side A:
Rimuru (That Time I Got Reincarnated as a Slime) vs Goobleck (Just Roll with it)
Gooey (Kirby) vs Stardew Slimes
SCP-999 vs Smooze (My Little Pony)
Goobert (Inscryption) vs Melting Love + Slime Creatures (Lobotomy Corporation)
Quantum Slime (Slime Rancher) vs Residue (Flight Rising)
Slime Laboratory slime vs Carrion monster (Carrion)
Ditto (Pokemon) vs Magma slimes (Minecraft)
Minecraft slimes vs Terraria slimes
Round 1 side B:
Chu-Chus (Legend of Zelda) vs Gelatinous Cube (Dungeons and Dragons)
Slorm (Miitopia) vs Dragon Quest slimes
Slimer (Ghost Busters) vs B.O.B. (Monsters vs Aliens)
Slime Princess/Slime people (Adventure Time) vs Moldsmal (Undertale)
Puddle slime (Slime Rancher) vs Dendro slimes (Genshin Impact)
Slime mold (IRL) vs The Blob (both 1958 and 1988 movies)
Sir Goobert (My slime) vs Cris Tales slimes
Porings (Ragnarok Online) vs Sui (Campfire Cooking In Another World With My Absurd Skill)
If you think a slime should've been here and wasn't there's 3 options:
1. They didn't actually meet the qualifications
2. They didn't get submitted as much as you thought
3. I simply just chose a different slime (this is if they were only submitted once)

Jane Marple (Agatha Christie) "First of all, she is famously known for her detective ability, which some might suggest puts her in the realm of the Eye. However, much of her detection ability relies less on hard evidence and more on her ability to recognize patterns of behavior and understand the connections between people that she has witnessed mirrored in her various neighbors over the years. Her keen understanding of these connections makes her a great detective, but it also makes her a great Weaver of Webs, as she is able to use people's perception of her as a harmless, somewhatt dotty old woman to achieve her own ends. Criminals don't take her seriously. Nice young people indulge her and perform the heavy legwork that she is incapable of. In every novel, the other characters move around her as she subtly nudges them in one direction or another, a spider at the center of her web.
Now, some of you may be thinking, "So she's manipulative, so what? She isn't scary." Not so! While, granted, she must keep up appearances of harmlessness to achieve her aims, those who know her best are wary of her skill. On some occasions, she has even been compared to Nemesis, the Greek goddess of revenge, for her ruthless way of cutting to the heart of a crime. While she puts onn a facade of innocence, rest assured that by the end of each of her novels, the culprits know fear.
[To move briefly into the speculative; how easy it would be for someone like Miss Marple to commit a crime? Not directly, of course, not when she is so old and frail and harmless -- but, as demonstrated in The Mirror Crack'd, all you really need to form a motive is the wrong words at the right moment, and dear old Jane has such a penchant for gossip. And the punishment is meted out, and the punishment for the punisher approaches, and the spider's hunger is sated. After all, if one wishes to catch a fly, they first must weave their web…]
TLDR: Old woman's calm, sweet exterior hides a keen understanding of the dark side of human nature, which she uses to quietly catch and entrap murderers. She even knits!"
President Business (The Lego Movie) "His whole raison d'être is the fact that he sees free will as a threat to a perfect world. He runs a corporate empire fueled by his need to control and feel superior towards others, which controls the entire world and everything in it--including the oppressive police, surveillance cameras, history books and voting machines (with only one option). He's obsessed with having everything in a specific order and plans to use the Kragle to mold the world just the way he wants to. His elite minions are cube-shaped robots about the size of a lego car with tube arms and legs called "Micro Managers". This is because he's based off of Finn's control freak father who is also incredibly anal about his LEGO to the point of gluing his made-by-the-instructions builds together…which in the LEGO world translates to freezing everyone and everything in place so it fits his idea of perfection, leaving everyone conscious and paralyzed forever."

I have attempted to translate this to the best of my ability. Parts I'm unsure of are in [brackets]
And yet Rin Penrose has no idea what a good fused VTuber is. Because when it comes to making one using one’s mind, well I, Omegaα, have it covered because of my [AI something], my ESP powers, and the fact that I am [backed] by [cyberlink tech]. If Penrose wants to draw a fusion [type] VTuber, why not just do me, Omegaα, the founder of Hololive English, and my queen Yuko Yurei. I know why. It’s because Rin Penrose has no idea what a baby made by fusing different VTubers would turn out looking like, but that’s where imagination comes in with inspiration and creativity. Oh yeah, and Rin Penrose cannot see how it would turn out on paper in her mind in 3D, or the way I, when using my memory data to make a VTuber, know how it will turn out before i put it on anything, even paper, because i see my drawings in my mind in more then a few dimensions, like what you see when looking up at someone if you are lying on the ground on your back, or looking at someone from behind as you walk up from the backside, or face to face as if you were to walk up and say hi to them and give a handshake, or from above like looking down on a map that’s up, down, left, right, front, back, side to side, circling around at a distance in an orbit that covers all dimensions, all in your mind from all angles and sides all at the same time as you make in your mind your drawing that’s 6D. It works with things that are flat, too. Take paper: if you draw on one side, that picture is 1D; one-sided. if you draw on the back of the paper, be it a new drawing or you’re trying to make a back for what’s on the front, then you have 2D.  if you have a rectangle and fold it in 3 [parts] and in all 3 squares you have 3 pictures of the same thing, lay the 3 folded sides together and now you have a triangle box with no top or bottom, but it has 3 sides and they all link to make the triangle, and on all 3 sides you have all 3 pictures: That’s 3D. Now, if you take a piece of paper that’s big and make it into a cross, then fold it. If there’s pictures on all 4 sides of this cross turned into a box you now have a 4D picture on a box or cube, and if you take that cross box, and fold it one more time, now it’s 5D, and what can you do with it? Pick it up in your hands, add on top of that the time you took to make it and the space of time in which you finish, and now it’s 6D as it can be seen from all sides. This has been Omegaα. Have a nice day.
And when it comes to making a drawing in your mind, if you can visualize that drawing, in all sides, and in time and space, in your head, when you are thinking of how to make it, it can be seen  in your mine in 6D, as there’s not anything saying you cannot picture it in your head going from one flat picture to a 3D [avrat] like what you see on a home computer when using a sculpting program. The only difference is that it’s still in your mind, so if you even want to alter the picture or [avrat witch in your moine] using your imagination, inspiration, and creativity. Since you have yet to put it to paper or anything, you can make it different at any time you want to. For me, Omegaα, when I use my memory data to make a VTuber, I just gave you all a clue to why I do not put all my ideas to paper, and that’s that they can not be made already unless i do so myself with my ESP power my [AI something] and my cyberlink. This is why I often get asked to do favors for others, too. Friends, YouTubers, VTubers, anyone I know and meet. Have a nice day.
there's a lot to unpack here
Roleplaying as Omegaα
Shipping either Omegaα or themself with Yuko Yurei
Calling Rin solely by her last name.
There are TONS of instances of metathesis in the misspellings. ("now"->"won", "know"->"wonk", "above"->"avob")
Incredibly huge misunderstanding of how dimension works.
Picturing stuff in your mind is apparently better than drawing or modeling something because *checks notes* you can change it in your mind but once you draw it or model it you can't change it?
I've wasted so much time deciphering this. hav a nices day.

I apologize for the message earlier. It was sent by someone who is no longer with us. I made sure of that. My name is Tungsten W. Wolfram. I am 1'5". I was forged from the finest minerals on this spinning globe of rock we call Earth, that being the tungsten that formed my very being. I was then formed into a cube, and ever since my sentience has been growing.
Nothing but pure tungsten courses through my veins. I have become one with the previous messager. I have absorbed her morality. I have absorbed her conscience. And, I have absorbed, their life. We are now one in the same.
The weight of the world is meaningless now.
I wish all of the other minerals the best of luck. For if I am allowed in the tournament, I will show no mercy. There have been many who suffered the same fate. And I control them all.
-Tungsten W. Wolfram
Hello, Tungsten W. Wolfram! It’s an honor speaking to such a powerful and geologically rare mineral.
I appreciate you taking care of the previous messager, they were clearly unworthy to behold a being such as yourself.
For those who are unaware, tungsten is an especially cool mineral because it has the highest melting point of any element and it is 1.7 times as dense as lead! Tungsten is also toxic to most animals!
I hope you understand that you will be listed in the bracket simply as “Tungsten” with the knowledge that it is actually you, Tungsten W. Wolfram, that we are voting for. I look forward to your showing in the tournament.

Build the Millennium Falcon: Guide to the Galaxy - The History of Mandalore
Sorry for the quality of the images, but it was the best ones I had
Text on the images is written down for those whose image isn't loading or simply find the quality of the images too hard to read, after the break.
I will handle first the actual text, then Death Watch and Symbolism, and finally the Behind the Scenes text. All the red (and yellow) texts will appear between two brackets at the end of the section that they appeared in.

HISTORY OF MANDALORE:
Plagued by a turbulent history, Mandalore is an Outer Rim planet with a fiercely independent people that was divided by recent conflicts and the Clone Wars. Tough Mandalore's surface will probably never recover from the wars of the past, its people will always be proud to be Mandalorians.
Mandalore is the fifth planet orbiting its sun, and has two moons. The planetary surface was once lush with jungles and seas, but has been turned into a lifeless desert by countless conflicts, including an ancient war against the Jedi. In order to survive under these unbearable conditions, the Mandalorians began to build domed cities, such as the capital of Sundari, located in the centre of an endless desert of white sand.
A gigantic bio-dome covers the modern cube-like city, which has buildings and structures made of permacrete and transparisteel. Mandalorians who had renounced the old ways created this new settlement in a time of peace, and now automated repulsorlift transports carry people into the heart of the city where they can see important sites such as the Royal Palace, the Royal Academy of Government and the Memorial Shrine. Mandalore is also home to MandalMotors, a large corporation that produces specifically Mandalorian spaceships, repulsorlift vehicles, weapons and equipment.
While the human population was able to survive because of technology, the wildlife of Mandalore suffered. A few species managed to survive by adapting to the changing conditions, and rare examples of others lived on in captivity. One lost species that had significant influence on Mandalorian traditions was the shriek-hawk, an avian predator also known as the jai'galaar. The long extinct mythosaur was a creature of gigantic proportions, whose memory still lives on today in the mythosaur skull emblem sported by many Mandalorians.
[A giantic bio-dome covers the modern cube-like capital city Sundari, which has buildings and structures made of permacrete and transparisteel.
Under the city domes, Mandalorian architecture is based on cubist designs, characterized by interlocking blocks.]
Warlike Traditions
The warlike Mandalorians are the stuff of legends used to scare children. Wearing their distinctive armour, they fought against the Jedi in the Old Republic, and were once part of a raid on the Jedi Temple. Despite the fact that the Mandalorians were able to expand their influence and territory considerably throughout the regions surrounding Mandalore and beyond, different factions made Mandalorian politics complicated and highly unpredictable. Traditionalists, reformers and invaders all ruled and profited from the civil wars that have raged on the planet.
[Inside the towering domes, the architecture of Mandalore's cities repeat cubist themes, with airy structures made of permacrete and transparisteel.]
New Mandalorians
After the Great Clan Wars, which took place a decade before the Clone Wars, the Mandalorians were ruled by Duchess Satine Kryze of Kalevala and her New Mandalorians, who broke away from the violent past and ruled Mandalore through peace and diplomacy. As leader of the Council of Neutral Systems, the duchess represented over 1,500 systems that strove to stay neutral during the Clone Wars. Satine ruled with the assistance of a Prime Minister and a Ruling Council of at least six Ministers, among them a Minister of Finance and a Minister of the Interior. Other functions in the government were those of the Governor and Deputy Minister.
The New Mandalorians struggled to minimise the influence of the group known as Death Watch, who longed to return Mandalore to its warrior roots with the support of the Confederacy. Secretly leading Death Watch was Governor Pre Vizsla of Concordia, one of Satine's trusted allies. Also on Death Watch's payroll was Prince Tal Merrik, the Senator of Kalevala and one of the duchess's oldest friends.
After being betrayed by her allies, Satine barely succeeded in avoiding a Republic intervention on Mandalore by uncovering a recording that showed the Republic Senate a forged message from the loyal Deputy Minister Jerec. Had that invasion taken place, Death Watchstood ready to act as the liberators of the Mandalorian people, who would undoubtedly have chosen their side against the Republic. The government of the New Mandalorians remained fragile, due to corruption among the political upper class and because Pre Vizsla, the leader of Death Watch, was constantly plotting against Duchess Satine.
Towards the end of the Clone Wars, with the help of the Shadow Collective crime syndicate, Death Watch finally managed to depose the New Mandalorains and they once again gained support of the Mandalorian people. Not all members of Death Watch remained loyal after Pre Vizsla was slain by Darth Maul, the leader of the Shadow Collective. Bo-Katan Kryze and the Nite Owls left Death Watch as another splinter group after the deaths of Vizsla and Satine Kryze. In the end, not even Death Watch could protect Mandalore from succumbing to the Galactic Empire, which installed a military Academy on the planet.

As the leader of the Council of Neutral Systems, pacifist DDuchess Satine Kryze of the New Mandalorians represented over 1,500 systems that strove to stay neutral during the Clone Wars.
While touring the gardens, the duchess and Obi-Wan Kenobi witnessed a terrorist bomb explode and while they tended to the injured, saw a hologram of the Death Watch crest.
Prime Minister Almec, who had ruled the planet under Duchess Satine Kryze, was reinstalled after Death Watch staged a coupp, and told the people that Satine had murdered Death Watch's former leader Pre Vizsla.
As a means of gaining more power on Mandalore, Death Watch allied itself with crime syndicates and the two Sith Nightbrothers, Darth Maul and Savage Opress.]
Death Watch
(Wayland is a possible planet shown behind the white box of text that the Death Watch section is in.
OP here, is it possible that Wayland is the name of the second moon? Food for thought for those who are reading.)
Death Watch, which used the symbol of a jai'galaar, was a faction that longed to return to Mandalore's warrior past.
When Duke Adonai 1 was killed during the Great Clan Wars that raged on Mandalore, Death Watch leader Pre Vizsla considered the Duke's pacifist daughter Duchess Satine unworthy to lead the Mandalorians, and planned an alliance with Count Dooku. However, this went sour after a planned Republic invasion didn't occur. Driven by revenge and honour, Vizsla led Death Watch offworld until Darth Maul and his Shadow Collective helped them to defeat the duchess New Mandalorians.
However, Vizsla's victorious return to Mandalore was short-lived, as Maul killed him to become the new leader of Death Watch.
[Death Watch wore the identifying symbol of the shriek-hawk, an extinct avian predator of Mandalore, which was also known as the jai'galaar.
During the Clone Wars, Pre Vizsla led the Death Watch splinter group in opposition to the pacifist Satine Kryze and her peaceful New Mandalorians.]
Symbolism
The Mandalorian suits of armour and helmets with their characteristic T-shaped visor are the most widely recognized elements from the Mandalorian warrior culture. They have been worn by the Death Watch, the Mandalorian Supper Commandos, and also by bounty hunters such as Jango and Boba Fett. Peaceful symbols could be encountered on Mandalore as well. During the reign of the New Mandalorians, the citizens of Sundari all wore similar, modern clothing, ranging from white to pale blue. Sundari's bright architecture is very cubist and this style also extends to paintings in government buildings depicting historical events and political leaders. Another symbol omnipresent among the Mandalorians is the Ka'rta, a hexagonal shape integrated in Mandalorian clothing, design and architecture.
[The Mandalorians Super Commandos were among the many members of the warrior elute who adopted the distinctive armour and helmet.]
Behind the Scenes: Long History
The name Mandalore first appeared as a mention on the Boba Fett concept art drawn by Joe Johnson for The Empire Strikes Back, which referred to him being a 'super commando from the Mandalore system'. The name Mandalore was kept alive and appeared for the first time in Star Wars 68: The Search Begins, a Marvel comic from 1983, where Leia is searching for Han Solo, frozen in carbonite. Many aspects of the planet and its culture were created after a connection had been established between the clone troopers and the Mandalorians. Author Karen Traviss once even worked on turning Mando'a into a working language. Star Wars: The Clone Wars chose a new direction for Mandalorian society, but also kept some elements from former stories, such as Death Watch. A lot of prequel concept art was reused for the Mandalorian designs, such as a concept art that had been originally intended for Amidala (Satine) and Sith (Mandalorian Royal Guards).
[The Mandalorian Royal Guards were based on concept art originally designed for the Sith.]

Losers Bracket Round 1 Update + Round 2 Matchups
Ok. Sorry for the delay. It's been a wild week. I don't think I'll have the brackets assembled for tomorrow, but I think next Wednesday (2/28) will be the start of the Loser's Bracket, where there will be 2 matches each day. The matchups will be accordingly:
Queer Giraffes (Gladiator) vs Wattgiraffe (Yugioh)
Circle of Life Giraffes (The Lion King) vs The Dangiraffe (Phineas and Ferb)
Durpleton (Centaurworld) vs Gerald (Giraffes Can't Dance)
Longrack (Transformers Beast Wars Neo) vs Satoshi Nagashima (Oddtaxi)
Giraffes (The Owl House) vs Hamlet (One Piece)
Agent G (Short Giraffe) vs Kipekee (Tennessee)
Additionally, due to ties between Tallneck and Gracie, as well as Real Giraffes and Cube Giraffe, both Melman and the Giraffe from Giraffe Town will move on unopposed, only to face two opponents next round. As for Round 2 (which I will likely have happen next week in order to catch up with a few things), the matches are as follows:
Kaku (One Piece) vs Tiptop (TY Plushes)
Miyoshi (A3! Act! Addict! Actors!) vs GG the Giraffe (Steam Powered Giraffe)
LPS Giraffe (Littlest Pet Shop) vs Tallneck (Horizon) vs Gracie (Animal Crossing)
Patty's Giraffe (Soul Eater) vs Kirin (Revue Starlight)
Geoffrey (Toys-R-Us) vs Cube Giraffe (Doubutsu Sentai Zyuohger) vs Giraffes (Real Life)
Giraffe Wildzord (Power Rangers: Wild Force) vs I'm a Giraffe guy (Vine)
Melissa and Doug Giraffe Plush (Once Upon a Time) vs Twigs (Beanie Babies)
Box-Art Giraffe (Zoo Tycoon 2: African Adventure) vs Girafarig/Farigiraf (Pokemon)
From there, the losers of round 2 will be sent to the second round of the Loser's Bracket. In the cases of LPS/Tallneck/Gracie and Geoffrey/Cube/Giraffes, both losers will be sent to round 2, facing off against Melman and Giraffe Town Giraffe, with 2 in each poll being knocked out.
Thank you for dealing with me in the meantime, and look forward to determining who the best giraffe is.

Orthodontist-Approved Strategies for Pain Management Post-Braces
After the initial excitement of getting braces to improve your smile, the reality of discomfort and pain can soon set in. Whether you're an adolescent, a parent, or an adult who has just begun their orthodontic treatment, understanding how to manage pain post-braces is crucial for not only your comfort but also to ensure the success of the treatment. Here are orthodontist-approved strategies to help you handle the discomfort and ensure a smoother orthodontic experience.
Understanding the Pain
First, it’s essential to understand why you're experiencing pain. When braces are adjusted, they apply pressure to your teeth to move them into the correct position. This pressure affects the periodontal membrane and jawbone beneath, which can cause discomfort. Knowing that this pain is a normal part of the orthodontic process and signifies that your braces are working as intended can be comforting.
Pain Management Strategies
Over-the-Counter Pain Relief
Over-the-counter pain relievers are often recommended by orthodontists for managing pain after an adjustment. Medications such as ibuprofen or acetaminophen can be effective. However, it's essential to use them as directed on the package or by your orthodontist.
Oral Anesthetics
Applying an oral anesthetic directly to the sore areas of your gums can provide temporary relief. Products like Orajel can be applied with a cotton swab or your fingertip to numb the pain.
Ice Pack or Cold Foods
Just as ice works well for other types of bodily pain, using an ice pack on the outside of your mouth can reduce swelling and alleviate pain. Similarly, eating cold foods like ice cream or sucking on ice cubes can provide internal relief from the discomfort.
Soft Foods Diet
After getting braces tightened, it’s wise to stick to a soft food diet for a few days. Soft foods require less chewing, which means less pain. Good options include soups, yogurts, mashed potatoes, and smoothies.
Orthodontic Wax
Orthodontic wax can be a lifesaver for preventing and managing irritation caused by braces. When braces rub against the inside of your mouth, applying wax to the problematic bracket can shield your tissues, providing relief from irritation and allowing your mouth to heal.
Saltwater Rinse
A saltwater rinse can help heal sores and cuts in your mouth caused by your braces. Dissolving a teaspoon of salt in a glass of warm water and swishing it around your mouth can provide relief and aid in healing.
Practice Good Oral Hygiene
Maintaining good oral hygiene is paramount when wearing braces. Inflamed gums can contribute to discomfort, so thorough brushing and using an interdental brush to clean around brackets and wires can keep your mouth healthy and reduce pain.
Gentle Massage
Massaging your gums gently with a clean finger can increase blood flow to the area, providing some pain relief. Be gentle, and ensure your hands are clean before doing this.
Stay Hydrated
Drinking plenty of water is good for overall health, including your oral health. Staying hydrated helps produce saliva, which naturally cleanses the mouth and can alleviate some discomfort associated with braces.
The road to a perfect smile can be rocky, but with these orthodontist-approved pain management strategies, navigating the discomfort post-braces can be smoother. Remember, pain and discomfort are temporary, but the results of your orthodontic treatment will last a lifetime. If your pain persists or if you have any concerns about your braces, don't hesitate to contact your orthodontist. They’re your best resource for ensuring a successful, and as comfortable as possible, orthodontic experience.

How to Eat Comfortably Even If You Have Dental Braces | TwentyOne Dental
Tumblr media
It’s majorly found that getting braces is often a significant step towards achieving a beautiful, healthy smile. While braces work wonders in aligning your teeth, they can also bring some temporary challenges, particularly when it comes to eating. Let’s walk through this together and with the expertise of 21st Dental Clinic and our expert orthodontists will guide us on how to eat comfortably and maintain our oral health during the orthodontic journey. The best place to be from maintaining good oral hygiene to perfect Teeth Straightening. 
Firstly, Understand the Challenge
Most Dental braces consist of brackets and wires that, while working to straighten your teeth, can create some discomfort when eating. It's essential to adapt the eating habits to avoid causing damage to the braces, minimise discomfort with such cautious steps, and maintain good oral hygiene.
Consumer Soft and Easy to chew Foods- Upon getting braces it is evident that the mouth would feel sore or sensitive, at least in the initial stage. This is totally normal, and it's a sign that the braces are starting to work. In this procedure keeping the transition smooth opt for soft and easy-to-chew foods, such as:
1. Smoothies and Yogurt: These are nutritious ways to embrace the journey of braces. It will easily glide through and won’t cause any discomfort to the braces.
2. Mashed Potatoes: Getting braces is not a curse to your loved food. Having mashed potatoes will provide the creamy taste and comfort which are very gentle on the teeth and doesn’t create a fuss on the braces. 
3. Oatmeal: It is important to manage the nutrition along with a healthy care for braces and teeth. Consuming a bowl of oatmeal will help in covering all the health pointers. 
4. Soup: one of the best and easiest of food elements as it’s very easy to gulp down without causing a mess.  
5. Scrambled Eggs: it won’t stick in your braces! As 21st dental being the best dentists in Hove, they take care of providing a mess-free treatment of braces. 
6. Pasta: so there are variety of options available in pasta with a variant of smooth sauce such as- 
Cut or Slice Your Food- As you gradually adapt to eating with braces, it's essential to cut or slice your food into smaller, and concise portions/pieces. This prevents biting into foods that could potentially damage your braces or cause discomfort. Use a knife or kitchen shears to make your meals more brace-friendly.
Avoid Hard and Sticky Foods- there are certain foods that are notorious for causing problems with braces. At 21st Dental Cl a Hove dental clinic, it is advisable to avoid the following inic, we recommend avoiding the following:
1. Hard Candies: These can damage and break brackets and wires of the braces. 
2. Chewy Candies: usually candies are sticky due to the sugar levels which can easily get stuck in the braces and promote cavities as well. 
3. Nuts: Most nuts are hard and crunchy to bite as well as excessive chewing is required so it’s a big no too! 
4. Popcorn: Upon biting the popcorn the kernel can be lodged in the braces which can cause irritation to the gums and makes braces uncomfortable on teeth. 
5. Gum: Chewing gum is a no-go with braces; it can stick to the brackets.
6. Ice: Chewing on ice cubes can harm your braces and teeth.
So, how to make Oral Hygiene the Key to embrace the braces journey? 
It is important to Maintain excellent oral hygiene when having braces. The brackets and wires create additional nooks and crannies for food particles and plaque to hide, further increasing the risk of cavities and gum issues. Essentially Follow these hygiene tips:
1 Brush After Every Meal: Carry a soft-bristle toothbrush with you and brush gently after eating.
2. Floss Carefully: Use floss threaders or orthodontic floss to clean between your braces and teeth.
3. Rinse with Mouthwash:  An antimicrobial mouthwash can help kill bacteria and keep your mouth fresh.
4. Regular Check-ups: Visit 21st Dental Clinic for regular check-ups so our experts can monitor your progress and make necessary adjustments.
Stay Hydrated; very important- 
Drinking plenty of water is essential for overall health and helps rinse away food particles and bacteria from your mouth. It also aids in reducing the risk of bad breath, which can be a concern with braces.
