Dear Patient
With braces it takes quite an effort to keep the mouth clean. You are not able to keep meticulous hygiene. Visit a chemist/medical store and have ortho brushes, special brushes to clean the mouth with oral braces. At night after food and before sleep you have to brush and use hexidine or oral anti plaques mouth rinses. If they don't work then contact your Orthodontist.
