Braces are devices used in orthodontics that align and straighten teeth and help position them for an improved bite and more attractive smile, while also aiming to improve dental health.
Most people are familiar with traditional braces, and many had them as a child or teenager, but you may not know how they actually work. Just as a physician uses medication to treat a patient, an orthodontist uses carefully designed, gentle forces of braces to position teeth. Braces are fixtures cemented to the teeth that allow the orthodontist to guide teeth into better alignment.

Braces can be put on teeth at all ages, and usually stay on for 12 to 24 months, depending on the situation. Wearing braces shouldn’t change the way you live. You will be able to play an instrument, participate in sports, dine on any foods you want (except for sticky/chewy candies and gum), and enjoy your usual activities.
In an appointment with us, you should feel fine during a braces adjustment. If there’s any discomfort, it should only last few days, and over-the-counter medication is usually sufficient for relief. Eating foods on the soft side will add to comfort, as well immediately following an adjustment.
Braces can be used to address orthodontic issues at any age. Benefits will help you at any point in your life. Most children get braces between 12 to 15 years old.
There’s no set time for how long you may be required to wear braces. Each patient is unique and the treatment you receive will be tailored to your needs. The average patient can expect to wear braces anywhere from 1 to 3 years, depending on the type of treatment necessary.
Different types of braces can be recommended, depending on different treatments that are needed.
