Metal Braces

The most common type of dental braces is still traditional metal braces; they are composed of high-grade stainless steel. They are more comfortable and lighter-weight than in the past and straighten your teeth by using metal brackets and arch wires.

Ceramic Braces

Ceramic braces are made of clear materials and are therefore less visible on your teeth than metal braces. While they are visually less prominent, they do require more attention to oral hygiene as ceramic braces are larger and are more brittle than their metal counterparts.

Not only are the aligners invisible, they are removable, so you can eat and drink what you want while in treatment. We offer super affordable ClearCorrect Clear Aligners to our patients who choose this type of orthodontic treatment.

How long do I have to wear braces?

The length of time you wear braces depends on various factors, including age, the degree of misalignment and the type of braces selected. Generally, patients wear braces for one to two years, but some may only need a few months, while others may take up to three years or more. A comprehensive assessment by your dentist will determine the severity of your teeth and the estimated time needed to wear braces. Keep in mind that the length of treatment may vary based on how well your teeth respond to the braces.

How to take care of your teeth while wearing braces?

Maintaining good oral hygiene is essential when wearing braces or a retainer to prevent tooth decay and infections. Brush your teeth after every meal and pack a toothbrush and toothpaste if necessary. Floss at least once a day and use small brushes provided by your dentist to clean in between each brace. Clean your retainers regularly, such as washing them every morning if you wear night retainers. Failure to properly clean retainers can quickly build up bacteria.
