Metal Braces

What is it?
Metal braces are traditional orthodontic devices consisting of metal brackets and wires used to correct misaligned teeth and bite issues.

About Metal Braces

Metal braces are one of the most common and effective orthodontic treatments. They consist of metal brackets that are attached to the teeth and connected by a metal wire. The braces apply constant pressure to gradually shift the teeth into their correct positions. Metal braces are known for their durability and effectiveness in treating a wide range of orthodontic issues, from simple to complex.

How it Works

Brackets are bonded to the teeth using a special adhesive, and a metal wire is threaded through the brackets.
Regular visits to the orthodontist are required to adjust the wire and apply additional pressure to guide the teeth into proper alignment.
The orthodontist monitors the progress and makes adjustments as needed to ensure optimal results.
Once the teeth are properly aligned, the braces are removed, and a retainer may be provided to maintain the new alignment.

Who are ideal candidates for treatment:

  • Individuals with misaligned teeth, overcrowded teeth, or gaps between teeth.
  • Those with bite issues such as overbite, underbite, or crossbite.
  • People seeking a proven and reliable solution for comprehensive orthodontic correction.
  • Adults and children who are committed to following orthodontic instructions and maintaining oral hygiene.
  • Patients who do not mind the visible appearance of metal braces.
