What are Metal Braces?
Metal braces represent a well-established orthodontic solution employed to align and enhance the bite of teeth. Durable stainless-steel brackets are affixed to the teeth and connected by flexible metal alloy wires. These wires exert gentle pressure on the teeth, gradually shifting them into the desired alignment. The braces are secured in place using small rubber bands, known as “ligatures,” or transparent plastic “modules.”
Metal braces, being the most traditional type, have a proven track record spanning decades in effectively straightening teeth. They present a cost-effective option and are particularly suitable for those seeking a more dependable treatment compared to removable braces.
