Introduction to Metal Braces
Metal braces are one of the most common orthodontic treatments.
They use high-quality stainless steel brackets and wires to straighten teeth over time.
Best suited for children, teens, and adults looking for a reliable solution to crooked teeth.
How Metal Braces Work
Brackets: Small, durable squares attached to each tooth.
Archwire: Thin metal wire that connects the brackets.
Elastic Bands: Helps in adjusting the tension of the wire, gradually moving teeth into the desired position.
Regular checkups are required for wire tightening and adjustments.
