Exploring Orthodontic Options
Braces aren’t just braces anymore. There are options available for orthodontic treatment. Although traditional braces are still a stalwart appliance for orthodontists, they also understand that braces don’t fit within every lifestyle. The different types of braces available are:
Traditional metal: This type of braces has been in use for centuries, with improvements made over time. They consist of metal brackets with archwires between them. The wires provide tension to shift your teeth into new, straighter positions. The archwires are held in place by tiny elastic rubber bands. This is the most visible type of braces. With the brackets and wires, oral hygiene is more difficult during treatment. To avoid damaging the appliance, you will also need to avoid some types of food.
Clear: These work exactly like traditional metal braces with brackets and wires. The brackets are ceramic or composite material rather than stainless steel. Because the brackets are clear, they blend with the natural coloration of teeth. This creates a lower profile than metal brackets, making the braces less noticeable.
Lingual: The least noticeable braces are mounted on the back of the teeth (lingual). They are more difficult to place but work in the same manner as traditional and clear braces.
In addition to braces, Creekview & McKinney Orthodontics offers a full array of orthodontic treatments. These include Invisalign, Invisalign Teen, Propel Orthodontics, and much more.
