Braces Orthodontics

Are you considering orthodontic braces? Braces will help you get
straighter teeth and improve other areas of your life.

Signs that you may need braces:

You have teeth that are visibly crooked or crowded.

You have challenges in flossing and brushing.

You have gaps between teeth.

You frequently bite your tongue or cheeks.

You have gaps in your teeth with your mouth closed.

You have difficulties speaking.

You have jaw pain.

You have trouble chewing.

Your adult teeth are delayed in emerging.

You have an under- or overbite.

You are missing some teeth.

You have extra teeth.

The types of braces include:

Metal Braces

Metal braces, also known as traditional braces, help you straighten
your teeth using braces, wires, and elastic ties. Your orthodontist
adjusts the wires through the elastic ties to shift your teeth during
each appointment.

Ceramic Braces

Ceramic braces are similar to metal braces in that they use wires but
they are generally less visible. They are made of a clear, tooth-colored
material that follows the precision of natural teeth.

Lingual Braces

Lingual braces are the least common type of braces. The braces are
placed behind teeth and this is convenient for people who want discreet
metal braces. Only a few orthodontists can perform the procedure.

Clear Aligners

Clear aligners are not your typical braces but they serve the same
purpose. A common brand name for clear aligners is Invisalign.
Invisalign aligners are increasingly becoming popular because they offer
a discreet way of correcting mild to moderate teeth misalignment.
