Braces

We offer a variety of orthodontic treatments,  including different types of braces. If you’re looking to straighten your teeth for that perfect smile then you’re in the right place. While regular metal braces are still widely used, clear braces and lingual braces are becoming increasingly popular, that can be used for mild cases of misaligned and crooked teeth.

You might need braces if:

• Your teeth are crooked
• Your jaws are in a position that makes chewing troublesome
• Your teeth are misaligned, which can cause irritations such as biting your cheeks or tongue
• Your adult teeth haven’t developed properly as you lost your baby teeth too early
• State of the art Bio-Ceramics.
• You have a protruding or retruded jaw

Subsequently the teeth might require removal. Since most of wisdom teeth, mainly the lower, are impacted, removal means a minor oral surgical procedure. It can be carried out under a local anesthesia, or if you prefer general anesthesia at a private hospital setting.

The first step:

Upon your first visit you will get an initial consultation by our expert orthodontist to determine the kinds of braces we have available and what they do for you.To determine if braces are suitable for the patient. The orthodontist consults with the patient and inspects the teeth visually. If braces are appropriate, a record appointment is setup where X-rays, molds, and impressions are made. These records are analyzed to determine the problems and proper course of action. Typical treatment times vary from six months to six years depending on the complexity.

Three Orthodontic Braces Includes:

1. Metal Braces

Dental fillings are used to fill tooth cavities, restoring the tooth structure. Chewing requires strong teeth and so teeth damaged by cavities or fractures are vulnerable to tooth decay, infection, breakage, and loss. If left untreated the tooth will damage further. Then root canal treatment may be required, or even extractions. Made from white composite resin, cement, or porcelain, dental fillings include inlays placed within tooth structure to restore its strength.. Modern dental fillings are tooth-coloured to preserve the natural colour and shape of teeth.

2. Ceramic or Clear Braces

Ceramic cosmetic braces are a less noticeable orthodontic appliance compared to metal braces as they consist of clear, translucent brackets. They are popular due to their cosmetic appeal. They work just in the same way as metal braces.

3. Self-ligating Braces

Self-ligating braces are an advanced form of metal braces that do not require O-rings or elastics. Conventional braces are tied in with elastics, which cause friction and pressure, making treatment slower and less comfortable.

Self-ligating braces hold the wire in and lock it in place themselves like a gate. They use a slide mechanism to hold the wire, which allows teeth to move more freely, quicker. Without the O-rings or elastics, which attract and collect plaque,  self-ligating braces enable you to maintain optimal dental health and hygiene throughout your treatment. There are both ceramic and metal self  ligating brackets on the market.
