How Do Braces Work?
Braces apply gentle, continuous pressure to gradually shift teeth into proper alignment. Treatment typically takes 12-24 months, depending on case complexity.
The Braces Process:
- Consultation – Digital scans & treatment planning
- Placement – Brackets bonded to teeth with archwires
- Adjustments – Monthly visits to tighten wires
- Retention – Wear retainers to maintain results
Invisalign: The Clear Alternative
Invisalign uses custom-made, removable aligners to straighten teeth without metal brackets.
Benefits of Invisalign
✅ Nearly invisible
✅ Removable for eating & brushing
✅ Fewer dental visits
✅ Comfortable with no wires
Best for: Adults & teens with mild to moderate crowding or spacing issues.
