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.

I was extremely satisfied with the whole experience and my 'saved' tooth is now perfectly fineDean, UK, 21 08 22

I would just like to say that Dan is one of the most professional, kind and reassuring dentists I have ever had the pleasure to meet. I popped into this practice on the spur of the moment knowing nothing about it with pain in a wisdom tooth. Dan was naturally able to put me at ease and explained everything he was doing and why. The replacement of my amalgam was completely pain-free and a special sheet was put around the tooth to make sure that there was no leakage of mercury into my mouth. The receptionists and dental assistants were equally as friendly and good at their jobs. I was extremely satisfied with the whole experience and my 'saved' tooth is now perfectly fine. Thank you, Dan, for being able to squeeze me in at such short notice and for your all-around expert treatment. In my opinion, your technical and social skills are second to none.
