Fixed braces are often not the most popular of treatments. However, today’s modern fixed braces not only achieve faster results, they also use wires and brackets that are a great deal more discreet than the truly old school systems.
Why are fixed braces so effective?
Fixed braces are able to correct a whole range of orthodontic problems, as the wire and brackets can be fitted to suit all face shapes. Arch wires can be bent to any shape and also maintain a great more effective level of force in comparison to other removable braces. The tension created by the wires and brackets can also be easily changed and adjusted and treatment can follow and evolve with the movement of the teeth.
Are all fixed braces highly visible?
Not all fixed braces are noticeable, with many systems offering tooth coloured wires and brackets, which come in a range of materials. Some brace systems, known as the lingual braces, are fixed to the back of the teeth, meaning they are completely invisible throughout treatment.
What can be treated with fixed braces?
Fixed braces can be used to correct many different orthodontic problems, including:
- Twisted teeth
- Gaps between the teeth
- Overbites
- Underbites
- Crooked teeth
- Crossed teeth
Fixed braces can be used for moderate to severe orthodontic problems, which makes it an ideal choice for patients suffering with difficult conditions.
What are the benefits of fixed braces and their results?
Fixed braces can be treated many, many different orthodontic conditions, for beautiful straight smiles. However, the aesthetic value is only one benefit of straight teeth, as straight teeth are less prone to tooth decay, as bacteria and food debris is easily removed from straight teeth, whilst crooked teeth can harbor damaging dental material.
