If you are seeking a powerful, comprehensive treatment option that can address complex dental and jaw alignment needs, traditional braces offer unmatched results.

The Power of Fixed Braces

Traditional braces use small brackets bonded to the teeth and connected by a wire (archwire). These components apply precise, consistent pressure over time, guiding the teeth into their optimal positions.

Our Fixed Appliance Options:

  • Metal Braces: The original, highly durable, and cost-effective option. They are now smaller and more streamlined than ever before, using strong stainless steel brackets.
  • Ceramic Braces: Functionally identical to metal braces, but the brackets are made of translucent or tooth-coloured ceramic, offering a more discreet aesthetic solution.
  • Duration: Braces treatment can take anywhere from one to three years depending upon the complexity of your case and your cooperation.

Traditional Braces are Ideal for

Correcting severe overbites, underbites, and crossbites. Closing large gaps between teeth. Addressing significantly crowded or misaligned teeth. Treating cases where fixed appliances offer greater control over tooth movement than removable aligners.

Frequently Asked Questions

The duration varies significantly based on the complexity of your case, but typical treatment times range from 18 to 36 months. We will provide a detailed estimate during your initial consultation.
You may experience mild soreness or discomfort for a few days after the braces are first placed, and again after each adjustment appointment, as the teeth begin to move. This discomfort is temporary and easily managed with over-the-counter pain relief.
To protect the brackets and wires, you must avoid hard, crunchy, or sticky foods, such as popcorn, hard lollies, gum, nuts, and chewing on ice.
Both options are clinically identical in terms of effectiveness. Ceramic braces are more aesthetic and discreet, while metal braces are generally more durable and slightly more cost-effective. The best choice depends on your preference and budget.
Yes, retainer wear is essential to maintain your new alignment. Teeth naturally want to shift back to their original position. We will prescribe a custom retainer (fixed or removable) that must be worn as instructed to secure your long-term results.
