What are braces?

Braces are metal or ceramic brackets that are glued to the enamel surfaces of teeth. Wires are inserted into the bracket slots to move the teeth into a more desirable position. This is one of the best treatment methods to straighten teeth and works very efficiently. Conventional braces are also very affordable.

Treatment times vary based on the complexity of each case; however, the average treatment time should fall between 12 and 30 months.

Caring for the braces

Once your child has their braces on, it is very important to care for them properly. Braces attract food particles which in turn can cause plaque to build upon the surfaces of teeth. Maintaining great oral hygiene with proper brushing, flossing, and mouth rinses are paramount to treatment success. It is also very important to maintain regularly scheduled cleaning visits with your dentist.
