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.

From the moment you enter the reception, you feel welcomeLauretha, South Africa, 15 08 22

I (like many other people out there) have a fear for a dentist. I visited another practice about a month ago and was told I needed to have a root canal procedure done, they did a quick fox in the meantime for me, whilst I was placed on a waiting list for root canal. The quick fix left me feeling that I was hit in my face, swollen and very tender. 3 Weeks later, and still nothing. (not a care in the world that I was in pain) I phoned Dr. Thomas's rooms yesterday, told them what happened and they immediately helped with an appointment. What an experience! Dr Thomas is so gentle, and makes you feel comfortable throughout the process. He (as well as all the staff I met today) is so energetic, vibey, friendly and just amazing. From the moment you enter the reception, you feel welcome. I highly recommend him and his practice, for any dental work. I actually walked out today, with no pain even after the beginning process of root canal. I am so happy with my new forever dentist. They are here to actually help their patients, and not just make money out of them. A dentist with a passion for what he does. Thank you Dr Thomas and team for changing my mind about dentists today. You are such an amazing bunch!
