What are Metal Braces?
Metal braces represent a tried-and-tested orthodontic treatment used to align teeth and enhance bite alignment. Teeth are affixed with high-quality stainless-steel brackets, and flexible metal alloy wires are threaded through them. This imparts a gentle pressure on your teeth, gradually guiding them into the desired position. The braces are secured in place either with small rubber bands, referred to as “ligatures,” or clear plastic “modules.”
Metal braces are the most conventional type, having been employed for many years as an effective method for aligning teeth. They provide a cost-effective option and are well-suited for individuals seeking a more reliable treatment compared to removable braces.
If you have any inquiries about metal braces or are interested in exploring treatment options for your children, feel free to contact us today!
