REGULAR METAL BRACES

Conventional Metal braces are basic type which is most widely and commonly used braces for kids and young adults. In this treatment, small metal passive pre-programmed brackets are attached to the teeth and connected with a thin wire which generates force for teeth to move. They are held in place using elastic bands and are monthly adjusted to align your teeth. This is a cost-effective and reliable treatment.

 

 

SELF- LIGATING METAL BRACES

Self-ligating metal braces are one of the advanced braces which much look like regular metal braces. The differences—instead of elastic bands, special clips are used to hold wire, which deliver low continuous force, and  highly efficient. Self-ligating braces require fewer orthodontal visits and lesser chair side-time. They are easy to clean and pain less braces while

 during activation. Some of the Standard brands we use are  Damon system by ormco, Empower by American Orthodontics.

 

 

CERAMIC SELF LIGATING BRACES

The ceramic braces are clear or tooth-coloured and don’t stand out as much as the metal braces. Treatment results are same as self ligation braces. The standard brand we use is Clarity SL.

 

 

LINGUAL BRACES

Unlike the regular braces, lingual braces are attached to the backside/ inside surfaces of your teeth. They are custom (CAD CAM DESIGNED) made to the lingual contours of the teeth and may take a while to get used to because of its location. They are just as effective as regular braces with lingual biomechanics. Highly recommended for age group above 30 + years for social appearance. Truly invisible to anyone other than you and orthodontist.
