Orthodontic Braces
What are Orthodontic Braces?
Orthodontic braces are used to correct crooked teeth, crowded smiles, misaligned bites, and jaw alignment issues. They not only improve appearance but also make daily functions like eating, speaking, and cleaning your teeth easier. Today’s braces are more advanced—sleeker, thinner, and much more comfortable than before, thanks to improvements in dental technology.
Traditional braces consist of metal brackets bonded to your teeth and connected by a wire. This wire is adjusted every 5–6 weeks to gradually move your teeth into their ideal position. While these metal braces are still the most widely used treatment, modern alternatives offer more aesthetic and lifestyle-friendly choices.
Who Needs Orthodontic Braces?
Anyone with misaligned teeth, bite issues, or jaw discomfort can benefit from orthodontic treatment. Children and teenagers often receive braces to guide proper dental development, but many adults also seek orthodontic care for functional and cosmetic reasons. If you’re experiencing crowding, gaps, or bite problems—or simply want a straighter smile—braces might be the right solution for you.

Types of Orthodontic Braces We Offer
Ceramic Braces
Made from clear composite materials, ceramic braces blend in with the natural color of your teeth, making them less noticeable than traditional metal braces. They offer an aesthetic option without compromising effectiveness.
Lingual Braces
These are traditional metal braces placed on the back side of your teeth, making them virtually invisible from the front. Note: Not all clinics offer lingual braces. Please contact us to check availability before scheduling.
Clear Aligners
Clear aligners are custom-made, removable trays worn 20–22 hours a day. As your teeth shift, you’ll move through a series of trays. Aligners are a discreet, comfortable, and wire-free alternative to metal braces—especially popular among adults.
Your orthodontist will evaluate your case and help decide which treatment—traditional braces or clear aligners—is best suited for your dental goals and lifestyle. While aligners are more aesthetic, they may require longer treatment durations due to their gentler pressure.
