Teeth straightening with braces does not depend on your eating and brushing schedule. As fixed options, they continue to apply forces on the teeth throughout the day. There is no risk of losing them or forgetting to wear them.
Traditional Metal Braces: These orthodontic fixed braces offer solutions to a diverse range of teeth misalignment and bite issues. They consist of the following components:
Unlike regular braces that need elastic bands to hold the wire in place, Damon braces have unique gateways or channels to hold the archwire to the braces. This allows the wire to move freely, reducing pressure on your teeth and making the whole process less painful. With less friction and fewer tight spots, they work faster. They come in both metal and clear options, making them versatile.
No. You may feel some mild discomfort after fittings or adjustments as your teeth begin to move, but this usually subsides within a few days.
Treatment times vary depending on your individual needs, but most patients wear fixed braces for 12–24 months.
You’ll need to avoid certain hard or sticky foods to protect your braces, but most meals are perfectly fine with a few minor adjustments.
The idea of multiple metallic attachments and wires in the mouth is daunting. This is why we prioritise your comfort and peace of mind at every stage.
