Braces work by putting constant pressure on teeth in order to make them straight and aligned. The metal wires help to move your teeth and the rubber bands help to fix the alignment. Since braces put pressure on teeth, they may take a while to get used to. There are lots of reasons why braces may be recommended. For example, if your upper or lower bite is not even, this is called a malocclusion, which simply means bad bite Other reasons for needing braces may include crooked or uneven teeth. Braces are very common, with approximately 70 percent of teenagers who either wear or have worn them. You can get traditional metal braces, clear aligners Invisalign ceramic clear braces, or invisible braces worn on the backs of teeth.
Thanks to modern advances, metal braces today are made with materials designed to create less discomfort. Titanium implants and magnets are among the things we use to make braces more comfortable than ever before. At A Dental Art, every effort is made to make braces as pain free as possible.
