If you are already undergoing orthodontic treatment, the best approach will be to consult your orthodontist for these queries. Rational opinion is not possible without a look at the clinical condition of the teeth.
Going by the description that you have mentioned, your gums will require cleaning so that the inflammation can subside, and meticulous maintenance by proper tooth brushing is equally important after that.
