What are braces?

What are braces?

Braces are the conventional form of treating misaligned teeth using brackets and wires to move your teeth into their desired location. Crooked teeth are a major aesthetic concern and a significant risk to oral health. The misaligned teeth are difficult to clean, can cause functional problems in bite, airway, joint and can be an aesthetic challenge impacting a person's confidence.

Types of braces

Metal Braces

The brackets and wire are metallic. Each bracket gets a small rubber band (elastic) around it. It holds the wire in the bracket slot. This wire causes the teeth to straighten.

Brackets are the constant feature that will remain until the end of treatment. Wires and rubber bands change every month.

Self-ligating Braces

Self-ligating braces don’t need rubber bands (elastics). They have clips on the metallic brackets.

Advantages:

  • Faster results - Treatment time is reduced by 4-6 months compared to traditional metal/ceramic braces. This is because self-ligating mechanism reduces friction, which allows teeth to move more freely, quickly.

  • More comfortable for the patient because of less pressure.

  • Better oral health as they are easier to clean.

Dr. Monica Mulchandani can suggest whether metal or self-ligating braces will work best for your case. Visit Bitehaus Dental Clinic to know more.

Ceramic Braces

Tooth-coloured braces or Ceramic braces are also called white or clear braces. They consist of ceramic braces (brackets) and metal wire.

They are as effective as metal braces.

Ceramic braces are a fabulous option for people who don’t want the metallic show. They are less noticeable and hence a good choice for adults.

LINGUAL Braces

Lingual braces for teeth are braces bonded on the inner surface of teeth. Thus, they are not visible when you speak and smile.

It allows you to smile with confidence!

They are also known as hidden braces.

What is the right age to get my child checked for braces?

7 years or older is the right age to get your child for an orthodontic check-up. Reasons:

  • To check if permanent teeth are erupting in place. Sometimes milk teeth hinder the eruption of permanent teeth.

  • To check if there are growth problems in the jaws. These need treatment at a younger age. Many times parents keep waiting till the permanent teeth erupt and miss out on this golden age. A simple appliance can help the teeth in a big way.
