Braces

Dental braces are orthodontic devices designed to correct misalignments and irregularities in the positioning of teeth and jaws. Comprising metal brackets, wires, and sometimes additional components like bands, dental braces work by applying continuous pressure to gradually move teeth into a more desired alignment. This process allows for the correction of issues such as crowded teeth, gaps, overbites, underbites, and crossbites. Braces are not only effective in enhancing the aesthetic appearance of a smile but also contribute to improved bite function and overall oral health. Modern braces come in various materials and styles, including traditional metal braces, ceramic braces, and clear aligners, providing patients with options that suit their preferences and lifestyle. The duration of wearing braces varies depending on the complexity of the orthodontic issues but typically ranges from several months to a few years.
