Metal Braces Explained

Metal braces are a traditional orthodontic treatment that has been trusted worldwide for decades. The treatment has successfully transformed countless smiles across all demographics and facial profiles. 

Unlike clear aligners, metal braces use a system of brackets and wires that are fixed to the teeth to provide consistent pressure for optimal tooth movement.

Metal braces can effectively correct mild to severe orthodontic misalignment conditions and are proven successful across all facial profiles and ethnic backgrounds. Most patients who undergo treatment with metal braces fall under the moderate to severe orthodontic condition category and typically take about 18 to 24 months to complete treatment. 

The fixed nature of metal braces ensures continuous tooth movement and eliminates concerns about patient compliance, making them a reliable choice for comprehensive orthodontic correction.

Benefits of Metal Braces

While metal braces have fallen out of popularity in the last decade, there continue to be many benefits to taking up metal braces treatment.

Highly affordable

Braces are affordable in comparison to clear aligner systems, especially for complex orthodontic conditions.

Effective and efficient treatment

Braces provide consistent pressure for reliable tooth movement, ensuring steady progress toward desired results. 

The fixed system works 24/7 to correct alignment issues.

Suitable for complex orthodontic conditions

Metal braces excel at treating severe misalignments, rotations, and bite issues. 

They can handle the most challenging cases that other treatment options might not be suitable for.

Faster treatment time

Due to their continuous force application, metal braces often achieve results faster than removable alternatives for complex cases.

Least expensive orthodontic treatment option

Among all orthodontic treatments, traditional metal braces typically have the lowest starting cost, making them accessible to more patients.

Do not need any form of daily compliance

Once installed, metal braces work continuously without requiring patient participation beyond basic oral hygiene.

There is no need to track wearing time or manage removable appliances.
