Hey there, orthodontic peeps! Ever wondered why those pesky white spots like to crash the party on your pearly whites after getting braces? We got curious too, so we donned our detective hats ️‍♀️ and followed a group of brave souls on their brace-tastic journeys for 6 and 12 months.

The Results: Buckle up, because things are about to get interesting! At 6 months, almost half the crew (38%) had at least one white spot, and by 12 months, it climbed to a cool 46%. But hey, the good news is, the control group who hadn’t even gotten their braces on yet were practically spotless (only 11% with spots!).

The Plot Twist: Turns out, these white spots seem to prefer hanging out with the dudes! ‍ 76% of spotted teeth belonged to our male friends, while only 24% were on the ladies’ side. Who knew braces were so gender-biased?

The Takeaway: So, what’s the lesson in this orthodontic detective story? The first 6 months are like white spot central, but things kinda chill out after that. But don’t let your guard down! Clinicians gotta keep a close eye on those pearly whites, especially at the beginning, and make sure everyone’s brushing and flossing like champions to keep those spots at bay. 🪥
