Can you put on braces with fixodent?
2 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
No. Fixodent is for dentures. You'll need to see your orthodontist to rebond any brackets.

No! Braces are chemically bonded to your teeth. Fixodent is used to stabilize dentures that rest on soft tissues. If a brace has come loose, it means the the carefully arranged clock-work is missing a cog. This can result in untoward movement that prolongs our time in braces. Please call your specialist Orthodontist or treating General Dentist.
