Do some peoples gums naturally swell when they have braces even though they floss brush and use an interdental brush 3 times a day?

Yes, I'm crazy about brushing my teeth and flossing all the time and I have really swollen gums on my bottom teeth that are the height of each tooth. There are different things to try to get them less swollen, but I haven't found anything that helps yet :(

∙ 10y agoyes it is normal when you are having braves it is all part of the braces since the braces squeeze the gums it causes swollen in the gums but it is normal you should probably brush 2-3 days floss at least 1 a day better at bedtime.Get a check up if you need it,Use mouth wash to clean any bacteria and take care of your teeth.

It depends on how the teeth are positioned and what your orthoodontist's plans are for how he/she is going to straighten your teeth. I have braces and I didn't need to have teeth pulled.
