Let’s talk traditional braces

Traditional metal braces have been around for decades and have become the go-to orthodontic solution for countless people who want to straighten their teeth and improve their smiles. While many other appliances and treatments have been developed since, metal braces remain one of the most dependable and reliable ways to achieve a beautiful and confident smile.

Traditional metal braces are effective

As metal braces apply constant pressure to the teeth, they can contribute to a very precise dental alignment. Additionally, the brackets and wires used for traditional metal braces can be adjusted as needed, allowing for further customization of the treatment.

They are durable and resilient 

The metal brackets used are resistant to wear and tear, and can be adjusted over time to ensure that the teeth remain in the desired alignment. Metal braces take the advantage over clear ceramic braces when it comes to resiliency.

They are affordable

While there are some more expensive treatments available, traditional metal braces remain one of the most affordable and cost-effective ways to realign teeth. 

They are convenient

Metal braces do not require the patient to spend much time in the office. The entire treatment process is typically accompanied by monthly visits to your orthodontist. After a quick visit, the patient is able to go home with their adjusted braces. Additionally, traditional braces have minimal discomfort and little interruption to the patient’s day to day life.

They offer long-term results 

Because metal braces are able to apply a precise and consistent pressure to the teeth to realign them, the results are reliable and long-lasting. Thanks to the precision of traditional metal braces, you can get the smile of your dreams.

Treat more severe conditions

Traditional braces can treat more severe malocclusions, such as bite problems and gapped teeth, which clear aligners cannot.
