Fixed metal braces have been used for many years to straighten teeth and it is testament to their effectiveness that they are still used to this day – albeit with some technological advancements to help. Our specialist orthodontists have the skills to make very precise changes to ensure you achieve incredible and long-lasting results.
Fixed metal braces are still one of the most used and trusted teeth straightening methods. They can be used to treat a wide range of orthodontic cases from simple to complex, and as one of the most commonly used methods for teeth straightening – fixed metal braces are a more affordable option compared to other teeth straightening solutions.
Fixed metal braces straighten teeth using a combination of metal brackets and wires. Our expert team will attach a small square bracket to the front of each tooth and connect them using a thin archwire. The wire that connects the brackets creates tension, which gradually shifts your teeth to the final position. Your braces will be adjusted every six to 10 weeks.
Your treatment time will depend on your individual requirements, but your front teeth could be straightened in just a matter of months. As your smile is unique, the cost of fixed metal braces will depend entirely on your individual needs. We will be able to assess this at your initial consultation with one of our dentists or orthodontists.
