In the first 48 to 72 hours after Hyrex device installation, the sensitivity of the teeth and pressure in the jaw area reaches its peak. During this period, the chewing system should have the least activity so that the tissues of the jaw adapt to the new changes.

Because of the distance between the body of the device and the roof of the mouth, food particles are easily trapped behind the Hyrex screw and its metal arms. Lack of thorough cleaning leads to severe gum inflammation, bad breath and tooth decay.

Cleaning steps (step-by-step list):

  • Washing with water pressure: Immediately after eating, rinse the mouth with high-pressure water to remove coarse particles.
  • Using an interdental toothbrush: the best tool for cleaning under the body And around the central screw, there are delicate interdental toothbrushes.
  • Brushing at a 45-degree angle: hold the regular toothbrush at an angle towards the gum and the attachment point of the device to the tooth (orthodontic bands). On the roof of the mouth, use an alcohol-free mouthwash daily.
  • Check in the mirror with enough light: after finishing the work, with the help of the light of the phone or the mirror, make sure that there is no food residue in the screw gap.

Notes Golden for Hyrex feeding

Success in Hyrex feeding is based on swallowing and crushing technique rather than chewing power. Following these tips will prevent the orthodontic bands from loosening and causing bad breath.

List of key tips:

  • Small bites: Cut all foods (even bread and soft fruit) into pieces smaller than 1 cm so that you don't need to chew for a long time.
  • Using the back teeth: Instead of biting with the front teeth, bite the bite. Place directly on the molars (to which the device is attached). This helps the food to move more smoothly in the roof of the mouth and prevent it from getting stuck.
  • Avoid sucking on the appliance: Avoid strong suction on the roof of the mouth to remove food, because it causes inflammation of the gums under the appliance (use an interdental toothbrush instead).
  • Balanced food temperature: Use lukewarm or cold foods in the first days. High heat may increase the sensitivity of pressured teeth.
  • Bilateral chewing: To balance the pressure on the Hyrex screw, try to use both sides of the jaw equally for chewing.
  • Patience in swallowing: Due to the space occupied by the device, the tongue has less room to move; So swallow patiently and in a small volume. Hyrex and changing eating habits usually last between 3 and 7 days. Remember that following a soft diet and careful cleaning under the screw of the device not only prevents pain and inflammation, but also increases the speed of treatment progress and widening of the jaw. If you feel the straps loosen or break in the appliance arms while eating, without changing its position, contact your orthodontist immediately.
