Fixed Metal Braces
Fixed metal braces have been used for years to precisely straighten teeth in both adults and children. They feature precision-engineered metal brackets, which are much smaller than they once were, helping to improve comfort and appearance. These braces can also be customised with different coloured elastics – a popular option with younger patients.
The braces can be worn on the upper teeth and lower teeth, or just the upper teeth or front teeth, and treatment normally lasts between 6-18 months.
Benefits
- Precise – brackets are carefully positioned to accurately move teeth.
- Predictable – as these braces are fixed in place, you won’t forget to put them in, ensuring realignment takes place as expected.
- Cost-effective – less expensive than more discreet options.
