Ever since I got my braces...??
Question: Ever since I got my braces a little over a year ago, it seems like I've been getting a lot more sore throats where my lymph nodes are totally swollen. These sore thorats have been so bad sometimes that I have been perscribed antibiotics...what do you think causes this?
Answers: You need to make sure that you clean your braces and entire mouth thoroughly. It sounds like bacterial problems.
In rare cases people are known to be allergic to the metals in their braces. Maybe you should talk to your orthodontist about it. Good luck
you might speak with a dentist that practices Craniopathy. There are some issues with braces and they way your Cranium moves that could be effecting your lymph system which could case the issues you are experiencing.
Strep infections are fairly common. It is likely that this is just a coincidence, since not everyone who gets braces get sore throats. If the sore throat gets better after taking antibiotics, that would pretty much rule out an allergy to the braces, since the antibiotic treats an infection.
This question should be asked to your physician, since some patients can have recurrent strep infections and may require further medical evaluation.
I have braces too.Some people are bad and dont brush their teeth!!
