What are braces?

Braces are dental devices used to align teeth correctly so that patients get beautiful smiles, comfortable bites and clear speech. The dental speciality that covers braces is called orthodontics.

What types of braces are available?

Braces are structural or cosmetic. Structural braces are fitted for children while cosmetic braces are placed for adults and adolescents. Braces may be fixed or removable. Structural or traditional braces are made of stainless steel. Cosmetic braces are made of clear ceramic material or clear plastic. Some braces are self-ligating, that is, they use a slide mechanism rather than elastic bands to connect to the dental archwire. Lingual braces are metal braces placed on the inner surface of teeth. This type of brace is not visible and are preferred by patients requiring cosmetic braces.

How long do you have to wear braces for?

The length of orthodontic treatment depends on the needs and orthodontic problems of each individual patient. Treatments for adults may take a longer time. On average, patients need to wear braces for about 2 years and then they need to wear a retainer to maintain the corrected position of teeth. For some adults treatment may take about 3 years.

How are braces installed on teeth?

For fixed braces, the orthodontist dries the teeth and places glue or bonding cement on the braces. The braces are placed on teeth and a UV light is shone on them to cure the glue or cement. For removable braces, an impression of the teeth is taken and a technician makes the removable brace consisting of a plastic plate and wires. The brace is then fitted on teeth.

How do braces work on teeth?

Braces exert a steady pressure on teeth. The pressure is periodically adjusted as needed by the orthodontist. Eventually the pressure exerted by braces corrects the alignment of teeth.

Do braces hurt?

Braces are uncomfortable when first placed on teeth. Patients experience soreness and need to get used to the pressure exerted on the teeth by braces. Patients normally get used to braces within a month.

A relaxed happy team and I never felt rushedRuth, Ireland, 20 10 22

Had a very straightforward check-up and cleaning here today. Such a lovely experience, a relaxed happy team and I never felt rushed which is so unusual now when seeing a doctor or dentist. I asked lots of questions about how they work and Caoimhín answered everything so frankly and honestly. Hoping I don't need to go back too often, but I won't be concerned if I do need to!

Dublin Orthodontics Swords

29-31 North Street, Swords
5.0 from 1 verified review
Dublin Orthodontics is a group of four orthodontic practices in Dublin.  We specialise in providing orthodontic treatment to adults and children. All our orthodontists are on the specialist orthodontic register, which means they have completed 2-3 years of postgraduate training in orthodontics, in addition to five years at dental school.  This advanced knowledge, together with the state-of-the-art technology we use at our practices, assures you of the highest quality care. Our mission is to provide excellent orthodontic treatment in a friendly, caring environment, prioritising your needs.  We use the most advanced techniques to provide the most effective and efficient means to identify and address you and your family's orthodontic needs.
Braces  
Most orthodontic treatment is carried out using fixed braces, sometimes known as ‘train track’ braces. This system uses a combination of metal brackets and flexible wires to gently move your teeth. Most orthodontists believe this is the most effective and precise way to move your teeth. The metal brackets we use are very small – smaller than the ones that many people remember from 10 or 20 years ago. Colours can be placed on the brackets for younger patients.
Adult Braces  
Ceramic Braces  
These are very similar to the traditional metal fixed braces, but the brackets are made of tooth-coloured ceramic instead of metal, making them less visible. These are popular with adults. (Please note that food colourings can sometimes stain these appliances).

It was painless and fastPamela, US, 09 06 22

I was in Ireland recently visiting family and had a dental emergency when one of my caps cracked and fell out. Dr. Tom fit me in that evening and in 20 minutes had put two pins in my mouth and restored the cap. It was painless and fast. I would highly recommend this dental office and Dr. Tom. BTW I am home in the United States and the cap is still holding!
