Metal Braces

With recent advances in braces technology, conventional braces are smaller and more discreet than ever before. Conventional metal braces are the “gold standard” for teeth straightening and work exceptionally well in mild to complex orthodontic cases. Metal braces are great at treating all cases from overcrowding to deep bites and crossbites, as well as overjet cases (top teeth coming forwards) and where teeth may need to be extracted.

Why choose metal braces?

  1. Effectiveness: Metal braces are incredibly efficient at treating a wide range of orthodontic problems, including:

    • Overcrowding: When there is not enough space in the jaw for all of your teeth to fit properly.
    • Deep bites: Where the upper front teeth excessively overlap the lower front teeth.
    • Crossbites: A condition where the upper and lower teeth don’t align properly when biting down.
    • Overjets: A situation where the top teeth protrude beyond the bottom teeth, sometimes referred to as “buck teeth.”

    Even in cases where teeth need to be extracted, metal braces can effectively align the remaining teeth to create a balanced, beautiful smile.

  2. Reliability: Metal braces are known for their durability and precision. They are often the go-to option for orthodontists because of their ability to handle even the most complex alignment cases.

  3. Advanced Design: Today’s metal braces are much smaller and more discreet than older versions. The brackets are less noticeable, and patients can even customize their braces with colored elastics to make the experience more fun and personal.

  4. Proven Results: Metal braces have been used for decades and consistently deliver excellent results. They are a time-tested solution for achieving a perfectly aligned smile.

Ceramic Braces

Ceramic braces work in a similar fashion to metal braces. However as they are clear or tooth-coloured they have a more discreet appearance and patients report increased comfort as they cause less irritation in the mouth from friction against the soft tissues.

What makes ceramic braces different?

  1. Aesthetic Appeal: The clear or tooth-colored brackets of ceramic braces are designed to blend in with your teeth, offering a more discreet option for orthodontic treatment. This makes ceramic braces a popular choice for adults or teens who want to straighten their teeth without drawing attention to their braces.

  2. Comfort: Many patients report that ceramic braces are more comfortable than metal braces, as they tend to cause less irritation in the mouth. The brackets are smoother and create less friction against the soft tissues of your cheeks and gums, leading to fewer sores and discomfort.

  3. Effectiveness: Like metal braces, ceramic braces are highly effective in treating a wide range of orthodontic issues, including overcrowding, spacing, bite problems, and misalignment. They work in the same way as metal braces, using brackets and wires to gradually move your teeth into the desired position.

  4. Discreetness Without Compromise: With ceramic braces, you don’t have to sacrifice effectiveness for aesthetics. You get the same reliable results as metal braces but with a more subtle appearance.
