Dental Braces

Your Path to a Healthier, Straighter Smile

Dental braces are a proven and trusted orthodontic solution for individuals seeking to achieve a beautifully aligned smile and improved oral health. These precision-crafted devices consist of brackets, wires, and bands that work together to gradually shift and reposition your teeth over time. The brackets are bonded to the teeth and connected by wires that are adjusted periodically to gradually move teeth into proper alignment.

 

Why Well-Aligned Teeth Are Much More Than Just A Beautiful Smile

  • Improved Oral Health: Straight teeth are easier to clean, reducing the risk of cavities and gum disease.
  • Enhanced Function: Proper alignment improves chewing efficiency and can alleviate issues with bite and jaw alignment.
  • Aesthetic Benefits: Well-aligned teeth can boost confidence and improve overall appearance.
  • Reduced Wear and Tear: Proper alignment minimizes uneven wear on teeth and stress on the jaw joints.

 

What Is The Correct Age to Start Orthodontic Treatment?

  • Early Evaluation: The first evaluation is recommended by age 7 when the first permanent tooth starts to erupt. Early assessment helps identify potential issues and plan appropriate timing for treatment. Some teeth can be guided into correct position while they are still erupting, eliminating the need  for braces at a later stage. 
  • Typical Age for Braces: Most orthodontic treatments start between ages 10 to 14, when the child’s adult teeth are coming in but the jaw is still growing. However, adults can also successfully undergo orthodontic treatment.

 

Types of Fixed Braces

  • Metal Braces: Traditional braces with stainless steel brackets and wires. They are durable and effective for a wide range of issues.
  • Ceramic Braces: Similar to metal braces but with clear or tooth-colored brackets, making them less noticeable.
  • Lingual Braces: Placed on the inner surfaces of the teeth, making them invisible from the outside.
  • Self-Ligating Braces: Use a slide mechanism to hold the wire, which can reduce friction and the need for frequent adjustments. Available in both Metal and Ceramic options.

Treatment typically can last between 6 months to 2 years, though this can vary based on the severity of the misalignment and the type of braces used.

 

Dos and Don’ts While Wearing Braces:

  • Dos:

    • Maintain Oral Hygiene: Brush and floss regularly to avoid plaque buildup and gum disease.
    • Follow Dietary Restrictions: Avoid sticky, hard, and chewy foods that can damage the braces.
    • Attend Regular Appointments: Keep up with scheduled visits for adjustments and progress checks.
  • Don’ts:

    • Do Not Skip Brushing: Neglecting oral care can lead to complications and treatment delays.
    • Avoid Using Teeth as Tools: Don’t bite into hard objects or open packages with your teeth.
    • Don’t Ignore Discomfort: Report any issues like broken brackets or wires to your orthodontist promptly.
