As the most common orthodontic treatment available for teeth straightening, braces improve your smile over time by carefully readjusting your teeth. This option is usually used for children and often begins early to guide teeth into position as the child grows. Braces are also an excellent choice for patients of all ages, including adults who would like more uniform teeth.

Using a system of brackets, wires and bands attached to the front surfaces of your teeth, the wires are adjusted to move the teeth slowly into the best positions for your smile. Braces are typically offered in metal, but ceramic or “clear” braces are also available if you would like a more subtle orthodontic option that matches your natural tooth color.

Braces are most often used to correct imperfections such as:

• Crowding
• Gaps
• Misalignment
• Overbites
• Underbites

Our dentist will create a personalized treatment plan with you and schedule regular checkups to ensure your teeth are aligning properly during your treatment period.
