aesthetics and daily inconvenience. In most cases, the first 3 months after getting braces are considered The Worst Stage of Braces.<\/p><p>At this stage, the teeth have not yet moved into their proper positions, and the brackets still feel unfamiliar inside the mouth. As a result, the teeth may look uneven, accompanied by discomfort and difficulty while eating or communicating.<\/p><p>In addition, during the early stage of braces treatment, facial muscles may also change slightly due to reduced chewing habits or because the lips and cheek muscles have not fully adapted. In some cases, the cheeks may appear temporarily sunken, making the face look less full than before.<\/p><p>For orthodontic cases that require tooth extraction, the gaps in the dental arch may become more noticeable during the initial stage, causing many people to feel less confident about their appearance. However, this is only a temporary phase while the teeth are moving into their correct positions.<\/p><p>From the third month onward, as the teeth begin shifting in the right direction, these aesthetic concerns will gradually improve, and patients will notice visible changes in both their smile and overall facial appearance.<\/p><p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-28672 size-full\" title=\"Giai \u0111o\u1ea1n x\u1ea5u nh\u1ea5t khi ni\u1ec1ng r\u0103ng th\u01b0\u1eddng l\u00e0 3 - 6 th\u00e1ng \u0111\u1ea7u ti\u00ean\" src=\"https:\/\/smilux.vn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/Giai-doan-xau-nhat-khi-nieng-rang.jpg\" alt=\"Giai \u0111o\u1ea1n x\u1ea5u nh\u1ea5t khi ni\u1ec1ng r\u0103ng th\u01b0\u1eddng l\u00e0 3 - 6 th\u00e1ng \u0111\u1ea7u ti\u00ean\" width=\"900\" height=\"600\" srcset=\"https:\/\/smilux.vn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/Giai-doan-xau-nhat-khi-nieng-rang.jpg 900w, https:\/\/smilux.vn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/Giai-doan-xau-nhat-khi-nieng-rang-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/smilux.vn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/Giai-doan-xau-nhat-khi-nieng-rang-768x512.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 900px) 100vw, 900px\" \/><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-1f1c8cca elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"1f1c8cca\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-settings=\"{&quot;ekit_we_effect_on&quot;:&quot;none&quot;}\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">How to Overcome Facial Changes During The Worst Stage of Braces<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-6715258f elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"6715258f\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-settings=\"{&quot;ekit_we_effect_on&quot;:&quot;none&quot;}\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>Although sunken cheeks, uneven teeth, or facial changes during the early stage are normal reactions throughout orthodontic treatment, not every patient can easily adapt to them.

With proper care and a positive mindset, you can get through this uncomfortable stage more easily. Below are useful tips and recommendations from the team of dentists at Smilux to help you feel more confident throughout your braces journey.<\/p><ul><li>Prepare yourself mentally before getting braces to avoid feelings of disappointment or stress during the first days of wearing brackets.<\/li><li>During the first few days after tightening your braces, prioritize soft and liquid foods such as porridge, soup, milk, or smoothies to reduce pressure on the teeth and minimize discomfort while chewing. (You can refer to the article \u201c<span style=\"color: #003366;\"><b><a href=\"https:\/\/smilux.vn\/en\/do-braces-hurt\/\">Do Braces Hurt<\/a>? Which Stage of Braces Is the Most Painful?<\/b><\/span>\u201d for more detailed information.)<\/li><li>Maintain a balanced diet and increase your intake of essential vitamins and minerals to help prevent weight loss, reduce sunken cheeks, and support your body\u2019s adaptation during orthodontic treatment.<\/li><li>Practice chewing evenly on both sides of the jaw to help facial muscles develop symmetrically and reduce the risk of one cheek appearing more sunken than the other.<\/li><li>Use orthodontic wax as instructed by your dentist to cover areas where the brackets cause irritation, helping reduce injury to the lips, cheeks, and gums during the early stage of braces treatment.<\/li><li>Maintain proper oral hygiene using orthodontic toothbrushes, dental floss, and water flossers to reduce plaque buildup, prevent tooth decay and gingivitis, and minimize the risk of loose brackets during braces treatment.<\/li><\/ul><p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-28673 size-full\" style=\"text-align: center;\" title=\"C\u00e1ch v\u01b0\u1ee3t qua giai \u0111o\u1ea1n g\u01b0\u01a1ng m\u1eb7t x\u1ea5u khi \u0111eo ni\u1ec1ng r\u0103ng\" src=\"https:\/\/smilux.vn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/Cach-vuot-qua-giai-doan-guong-mat-xau-khi-deo-nieng-rang.jpg\" alt=\"C\u00e1ch v\u01b0\u1ee3t qua giai \u0111o\u1ea1n g\u01b0\u01a1ng m\u1eb7t x\u1ea5u khi \u0111eo ni\u1ec1ng r\u0103ng\" width=\"900\" height=\"600\" srcset=\"https:\/\/smilux.vn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/Cach-vuot-qua-giai-doan-guong-mat-xau-khi-deo-nieng-rang.jpg 900w, https:\/\/smilux.vn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/Cach-vuot-qua-giai-doan-guong-mat-xau-khi-deo-nieng-rang-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/smilux.vn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/Cach-vuot-qua-giai-doan-guong-mat-xau-khi-deo-nieng-rang-768x512.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 900px) 100vw, 900px\" \/><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-6f65d930 at-heading-animation at-animation-heading-none elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"6f65d930\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-settings=\"{&quot;ekit_we_effect_on&quot;:&quot;none&quot;}\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Solutions to Improve Aesthetics During Braces<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-7b370391 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"7b370391\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-settings=\"{&quot;ekit_we_effect_on&quot;:&quot;none&quot;}\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>If aesthetics during orthodontic treatment is your top priority, you may consider more aesthetic braces options that are less noticeable than traditional metal braces, such as:<\/p><ul><li>Ceramic Braces: This method uses tooth colored brackets that blend more naturally with the teeth, helping reduce the visibility of braces during communication. Compared to traditional metal braces, ceramic braces provide better aesthetics and are suitable for people who frequently meet clients or work in environments that require a polished appearance.<\/li><li>Invisalign Clear Aligners: This modern orthodontic method uses custom made clear aligners designed for each stage of tooth movement.

Sunken cheeks, uneven teeth, difficulty speaking, or feeling less confident during communication can make many people feel stressed throughout the first few months of orthodontic treatment.<\/p><p>Understanding these concerns, Smilux International Dental Clinic applies <a href=\"https:\/\/smilux.vn\/en\/biolight-technology\/\"><span style=\"color: #003366;\"><strong>BioLight braces technology<\/strong><\/span><\/a> to make the orthodontic process more comfortable, gentle, and aesthetic for patients.<\/p><p>Instead of relying solely on mechanical force like traditional orthodontics, BioLight uses biologically controlled light technology to stimulate the natural remodeling process of the alveolar bone.<\/p><p>As a result, teeth move more evenly and follow the planned treatment direction more accurately, meaning the stage where the teeth still appear crowded or misaligned can be significantly shortened. Therefore, the overall aesthetics during braces treatment are noticeably improved compared to conventional methods.<\/p><p>In particular, at Smilux Dental, patients are directly consulted and examined by a team of orthodontists with more than 15 years of experience. The dentists are extensively trained in modern orthodontic techniques and have experience handling various bite misalignment cases, from simple to complex conditions.<\/p><p>The clinic\u2019s equipment system is also comprehensively invested in, including digital X ray machines, 3D scanning technology, and other modern devices, ensuring that every treatment plan is developed based on accurate and personalized data.<\/p><p>Each biological light application schedule is individually calculated to match the response rate of the bone and gum tissues, delivering effective orthodontic results while maintaining long term safety for patients.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-64b93cda elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"64b93cda\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-settings=\"{&quot;ekit_we_effect_on&quot;:&quot;none&quot;}\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p><em>If you are worried about The Worst Stage of Braces and want a more comfortable orthodontic experience, let the team of dentists at Smilux Dental recommend a treatment plan that suits your actual condition.
