Traditional Braces
Metal braces are the traditional type of braces used to correct teeth alignment. They consist of metal brackets bonded to the teeth and a metal wire threaded through the brackets. Over time, the wire is tightened to move the teeth into the desired position.
A Step-By-Step Process Of How Braces Work
Initial Consultation Appointment
The initial consultation with the orthodontist is essential in the braces process. During this appointment, the orthodontist will look at your teeth and discuss your treatment options.
Attaching the Braces
The metal brackets are bonded to the tooth surfaces with a special dental adhesive, and then the metal wire is attached to the brackets with small rubber bands or ligatures.
Adjustments
It is necessary to have periodic adjustments to keep the braces in place and continue the orthodontic treatment.
Receive your Retainers
You must understand the importance of wearing a retainer after your braces have done their job. A retainer will keep your teeth in their new position and help to prevent them from becoming crooked again.
Benefits of Getting Traditional Braces for Your Teeth
