What Are Traditional Braces?
Traditional braces are a tried and true method of tooth alignment. They use metal brackets that adhere to your teeth and connect with a metal archwire secured in place with elastic bands. By using pressure, your teeth gradually move into ideal alignment.
Traditional metal braces are smaller and more comfortable than ever before, thanks to recent orthodontic technology developments. Modern braces are made of titanium and surgical stainless steel that can handle the demands of anyone’s lifestyle.
Tooth and jaw alignment issues can contribute to plaque buildup, potentially leading to tooth decay or periodontal disease later in life. Overbites and underbites make dental injuries more likely and cause long-term damage to the teeth and gums.
If you’re looking to upgrade your smile, traditional metal braces are a proven method for correcting crooked teeth, jaw issues, and misaligned bites. Braces improve your dental health and can even help prevent future dental problems.

Benefits of Traditional Metal Braces
Traditional metal braces are the gold standard for fixing a wide array of minor and severe misalignment problems. Plus, with technological advances over the years, braces are more comfortable to wear than ever.

While metal braces often get a bad rap for being clunky and noticeable, modern metal braces are more inconspicuous than ever. They can also be a stylish accessory to your look! The elastics that secure the wire in place come in many different colors to customize your appearance.
