Know your Braces:



Traditional or Conventional Metal Braces:

These types of braces have been used for decades for the correction of teeth. Metal braces are made up of stainless steel alloy are the most commonly used type of braces. Brackets are small metallic fixtures that are placed on each tooth and a wire runs through the centre of each bracket that is secured using elastics. The orthodontist changes the wire at regular appointments allowing the teeth to gradually move into perfect alignment.


Self- Ligating braces:

Self-Ligating braces are a new generation Bracket System in which the brackets have a self- locking mechanism to help secure the wire in place instead of the elastic ties used in traditional braces.


Key Highlights of Self-Ligating system:

  • Smaller bracket size ensures less friction between your teeth and wire providing you greater comfort
  • Self-locking
  • Wire is passive as no elastics are used to secure the wire and bracket.
  • Forces used to move the tooth mimic more natural forces – better patient comfort
  • Reduced treatment time for a speedy smile makeover.
Transparent Braces:

Generally, children are often seen with braces and it is common misconception that adults can’t get orthodontic treatment. However, this is quickly changing due to the introduction of transparent or clear braces. In this case, the brackets are made up of ceramic which closely replicate the color of the teeth, giving a much more natural appearance during treatment. Therefore, there is minimal effect in the cosmetic appearance of the patient during treatment. Ceramic braces are available in both straight wire and self-ligating brackets systems.
