Braces Treatment You Can Count On

Few people are lucky enough to be born with perfect teeth, but orthodontic treatment can make a huge difference to you or your child. The dentists may recommend a particular type of braces such as traditional, ceramic, damon, or clear aligners to help correct your particular problem.

Traditional braces have progressed since the early days and are now lighter in weight and structure than they used to be. They are made from a high-grade stainless steel and have metal brackets that are attached to each tooth using a type of cement. The brackets are linked to each other with a thin archwire, which puts pressure on the teeth to cause them to move slowly into the correct position. The archwires are connected to the brackets using tiny elastics known as ligatures or o-rings, which the dentists will change each time they tighten the braces. Some types of braces have brackets that don’t need o-rings, and these are called self-ligating braces.

Ceramic braces work in the same way as traditional braces, but the brackets are made from a clear, transparent ceramic material. The braces are less visible to others, which makes them a popular choice for adults who need orthodontic treatment.

Another popular option are Damon Braces that provide both gentler treatment and requires fewer dental visits. They’re self-ligating and use a slide mechanism instead of elastics to connect the archwires.

Damon braces produce faster results as the teeth can move on their own without needing to be adjusted. This causes less friction and pressure on the teeth, so movement is less painful. The braces are also easier to keep clean. Having to make fewer trips to your dental professional means that the process costs less time and money, too.

Invisalign or ClearCorrect basically involve a range of clear plastic aligners that resemble mouth guards and are custom-made for you. They are removable for eating and cleaning, and you change them out for a newly made aligner every two weeks. Each new aligner takes the adjustment of your teeth one step further. Clear aligners are also recommended for ongoing use after you complete your orthodontic treatment. These appliances help to maintain the results you want until your teeth have settled down and finished moving.

Do braces hurt?

After getting braces, it’s normal to experience some minor discomfort for the first couple of days. Because of the pressure and pulling that braces put on your teeth, your teeth are more sensitive than usual.

The braces may also hurt because of cuts and abrasions from the metal brackets and wire.

How long does treatment take?

How long the treatment takes can vary depending on the severity of the condition and the type of braces used. Traditional braces, for instance, are typically worn for up to 2 years. Some custom set of aligners, such as Invisalign, might take less depending on the treatment plan made for the patient.

Is wearing a mouthguard on braces necessary when playing sports?

If your child plays sports while wearing braces, it’s recommended that they wear a mouthguard to prevent damage to their lips and cheeks. You won’t need to buy new orthodontic mouthguards while your child is undergoing treatment because they can be adjusted as their teeth erupt.

How much do braces cost?

The price of braces can vary based on the kind of braces you select and how badly your teeth are out of alignment.

Traditional braces, for instance, are typically less expensive than invisible braces. But if your misalignment is more severe, you may need to opt for a more expensive solution, such as an invasive or surgical orthodontic procedure.

Before deciding on the type of braces to get, though, it’s important to remember that invasive procedures have risks, so you should consult with a licensed orthodontist.
