How Orthodontic Treatment Works

Orthodontic braces are usually made of metal, ceramic, or plastic. They may be removable or they may be brackets bonded to your teeth. By placing mild force in a carefully controlled direction, braces gradually move the misaligned teeth to its proper position.

With Orthodontics, you no longer have to wear metal band with a bracket around each tooth. You can now choose from many different brackets that are clear or metallic, and in some cases, the color of your appliance. With Orthodontics, wires are far less noticeable, and it is designed in such a way to move teeth faster with more comfort.

Duration of Orthodontic Treatment

Depending on various factors, including age, treatment method, and your dental health, Orthodontic treatment time varies. It can last between 1 to 3 years. Its success depends on you, the patient! The more involved and diligent you are, the quicker and more efficient the Orthodontic treatment will be. For children, receiving early Orthodontic treatment can help provide a quicker treatment time later on in life.
