Your smile is one of the first things people notice — and it says a lot about you! Whether you're wearing braces, clear aligners, or simply maintaining your results after treatment, giving your teeth a few minutes of care each day makes a big difference.
Here's how to keep your smile shining:
Brush after meals: Food loves to hide around brackets and wires. A quick brush keeps things clean.
Floss daily: Even with braces, special floss threaders or water flossers make it easy.
Watch what you eat: Crunchy, sticky, and chewy foods can bend wires or pop brackets — and slow down your progress.
Smile often: Confidence is part of every great smile!
At Dr. Azizi's office, we love seeing our patients' confidence grow from start to finish. Every small step adds up to a smile you'll love for life!

When you smile, you're showing off one of nature's most fascinating feats of engineering. Teeth don't just move because we want them to—they move because physics says they can.
Tiny Forces, Big Changes
Braces and aligners apply gentle, continuous pressure—just a few ounces of force. That's about the weight of a couple of paperclips! Yet over time, that steady pressure coaxes teeth into new positions.
The Science of Bone Remodeling
Here's the magic: pressure on one side of a tooth causes bone cells to dissolve, while new bone builds up on the other side. It's like construction and demolition happening at once, guided by Newton's laws of motion.
Torque, Angles, and Leverage
Orthodontists aren't just doctors—they're engineers. Each bracket placement and wire bend uses torque and leverage to tilt, rotate, or nudge a tooth exactly where it needs to go.
Energy Stored in a Wire
Archwires are made from special alloys that "remember" their original shape. When they're bent and placed on your teeth, they try to return to their shape—releasing energy slowly, which moves your teeth over weeks.
Smiles as Structures
A balanced bite is like a well-built bridge: stress is distributed evenly, making the whole structure stable. Without orthodontics, that balance can collapse—causing wear, shifting, or even jaw pain.
So the next time you flash your grin, remember: you're showing off not just teeth, but the triumph of physics in action. ⚡?
