What are Metal Braces?

Metal Braces are orthodontic appliances made of stainless steel or titanium. They are suitable for patients of all ages. They are the cheapest among braces and are considered the most effective. Once fitted, metal braces exert pressure on the tooth to move it to the correct position.  Orthodontists adjust the wires of metal braces at every appointment to make sure that the tooth moves correctly. It takes about one to three hours to fit metal braces.   

For how long should I wear Metal Braces?

Patients need to wear metal braces for two to four years. The time taken to correct tooth alignment depends on the age of the patient and the needs of each individual patient.   

Is having Metal Braces fitted painful?

Fitting metal braces is not a painful procedure. Patients will feel pain and discomfort after the braces are fitted, as pressure is exerted on the teeth to move them to their new position. The pain and discomfort diminishes as patients get used to their braces.

How are Metal Braces fitted?

The orthodontist will polish the teeth and paint the front surfaces with glue. The metal brackets will be pasted onto the teeth. A curing light is focused to fix the brackets. The orthodontist will thread a wire through the brackets and then place wires around the brackets to hold them in place.  

What care is required after fitting Metal Braces?

Patients should practice proper dental hygiene and brush and floss their teeth correctly. Patients should use fluoride toothpaste. They should not eat hard or chewy food items that will damage their braces. Patients should attend their orthodontist appointments to ensure the correct fianl position of the teeth is achieved.

I am delighted with the resultsDebby, UK, 12 08 22

I have just finished treatment with Dr Kolahi for cosmetic dentistry and extensive work that was necessary before the cosmetic could be done. Dr Kolahi and her team have been amazing with me throughout, being so mindful of my fear of dentistry at all times. I am delighted with the results. I have a healthy mouth and a much improved natural smile! Highly recommend this Dental practise. Thank you Dr Kolahi, Debby.

Metal Braces from from £2500
Traditional metal braces are the most common type of braces used to straighten and align your teeth. Today’s metal braces are made of high-grade stainless steel, which are smaller, more comfortable and more attractive than in the past. Metal wires are attached to the front surfaces of your teeth through brackets. These wires are tightened over time, applying gentle pressure to the teeth which encourages them to move into a straighter position.
Clear Braces
Invisalign (Removable Clear Braces) from from £1800
Invisalign is a clear orthodontic system for closing gaps and straightening crooked teeth. It is a removable, clear and cosmetic alternative to traditional fixed braces, similar to Smile TRU. Invisalign uses three-dimensional modelling to generate a series of clear aligners or “clear braces”. They are often referred to by many patients as “invisible braces”. The clear removable aligners are custom made and replaced every 2 weeks. Over time, they move your teeth into a position that gives you straight teeth, worthy of a big smile.

The surgery was very helpfulAnthony, UK, 18 11 24

My wife had an x-ray for dental implant purposes, the surgery was very helpful. It would be nice if they would offer me and and wife a twice-yearly checkup once our dentures are fitted.

Metal Braces  
Fixed metal braces are our dental practice's most often-used orthodontic system. They are sometimes referred to as traditional braces. They are inexpensive and capable of addressing the majority of orthodontic issues. They may provide a less aesthetically pleasing appearance throughout treatment. However, they are the most efficient and cost-effective solution to align your teeth with fixed braces, even if they are not the most aesthetically pleasing option on the market today. It is currently the most extensively used appliance, with excellent results: elastic bands and brackets in various colors to display your individuality. While aligners cannot solve certain cases and removable devices are time-consuming, a fixed metal brace can handle all orthodontic problems since it applies consistent pressure to your teeth 24 hours a day, seven days a week. Your orthodontist will have complete control over the movement of your teeth with metal braces.
Braces  
Dental Artistry is well-known for our exceptional orthodontic treatments. We offer patients the latest selection of high-quality braces such as Lingual Braces (Win systems), Labial Braces, Ceramic Braces, Damon Advanced Bracket Systems. Fixed braces is a convenient solution for patients as it allows a continuous tooth straightening process. Your doctor is able to adjust your braces as regular as necessary. The fixed braces do not require patients to take them off, clean them and thus potentially wear their braces less than necessary. Having a variety of techniques and excellent know-how we are able to offer our patients the most suitable method to achieve their desired goal.
Clear Braces  
Clear aligners are orthodontic teeth guards that help correct minor malocclusions. They are used when the orthodontic issue that has to be fixed is not severe enough to require traditional orthodontic braces.  Clear aligners are removable orthodontic braces that are gaining popularity in the ever-expanding field of adult orthodontics. They can be removed anytime, which many professionals consider essential daily. They are also a highly aesthetically pleasing solution because they are clear, transparent, and only visible under close inspection. Invisalign is the first thing that comes to mind when thinking about clear aligners. It is the same as not wearing anything. However, other clear aligner treatments, such as the Spark Aligner system, provide excellent results. Let us have a look at these teeth-straightening
