Best Dental Braces for Teeth Straightening
Lack of properly aligned teeth is something that hampers your self-confidence and oral health. Teeth braces offer orthodontic treatments to straighten teeth, fix bite conditions, and correct the oral alignment in your mouth. To render the best orthodontic results, Dr. Gowd’s Dental Clinic provides high-tech braces according to your requirement.
What are the dental braces?
Dental braces are orthodontic appliances used to straighten the teeth and position the jaw. They are composed of brackets, teeth wire, and bands that gradually move your teeth into a proper position. We have bracket braces, clear braces, and self-ligating braces, all of which can be suited for any age group.
Why Choose Braces?
Misaligned teeth can lead to various dental issues, including:
- Difficulty in chewing and speaking
- Greater chance of tooth decay and gum disease
- Uneven wear of teeth
- Pain and discomfort in the jaw
Orthodontic treatment can result in a straightly aligned smile, improved oral hygiene, and greater confidence.
Who Needs Braces?
You might need to have your teeth aligned if you:
- Crooked or overcrowded teeth
- Spaces between the teeth
- Overbite, underbite, or crossbite
- Jaw pain because of misalignment
Before and After Dental Braces
Types of Braces
There are various types of braces for teeth. Each has different advantages:
- Metal Braces
Traditional metal braces use teeth wire and brackets for effective teeth straightening. They are durable and suitable for all types of misalignment. - Ceramic Braces
These are tooth-colored orthodontic braces that blend with your natural teeth, offering a more discreet option compared to metal braces. - Self-Ligating Braces
Available in metal braces and self-ligating ceramic braces, these use special clips instead of rubber bands, reducing friction and discomfort. - Lingual Braces
These are placed behind the teeth so they cannot be seen and work precisely like dental braces. - Clear Aligners
Aligners such as Invisalign offer an almost invisible, removable alternative to orthodontic braces treatment.
