Dental Braces

What are Dental Braces?

Dental braces are orthodontic devices used to correct alignment issues with the teeth and jaw. They are commonly used to straighten teeth, correct bites, and address issues like overcrowding or spacing. Braces work by applying continuous pressure over a period of time, gradually moving the teeth into their desired positions. Braces can help improve dental health by making it easier to clean teeth, reducing the risk of tooth decay and gum disease, and enhancing overall facial aesthetics.

Braces can be applied at almost any age, but the ideal time is typically during adolescence when the mouth and jaw are still growing.
The duration varies based on individual needs but generally ranges from 1 to 3 years.

Certain foods, especially hard, sticky, or chewy ones, should be avoided to prevent damage to the braces.

Brush thoroughly after every meal, use special orthodontic brushes, and floss daily using floss threaders.
