Yes, braces can increase the risk of cavities if proper oral hygiene isn’t maintained. Food and plaque can easily get trapped around brackets and wires, leading to tooth decay. Regular brushing, flossing, and professional cleanings are essential during orthodontic treatment.

Braces do not cause cavities. Poor oral hygiene and acidity could cause cavities. If you have poor oral hygiene while having braces you may become more cavity prone than without braces as it creates extra surfaces around the teeth that could collect plaque and bacteria and initiate cavities
braces make hygiene hard, and they can Couse cavity or decalcification under the bracket, clear aligner would be better, Dr Etemad
