Braces

What are braces?

Braces are a dental device used to correct misaligned teeth and jaw problems by applying gentle, constant pressure to move teeth into their proper positions. Crowding, crooked teeth, and misaligned teeth can all be fixed using braces, which are dental instruments sometimes referred to as appliances. Adults can also get braces, although many people get them when they are teenagers.

In order to correct your bite, braces gradually straighten and align your teeth while you wear them. More than just a therapy, dental braces open the door to a confident, healthy smile. Braces, which are advised by orthodontic specialists, (dentists trained to diagnose, prevent, and treat teeth and jaw irregularities) can address a number of difficulties, including bite and jaw alignment concerns, as well as crowded and misaligned teeth. Beyond appearance, the benefits include better speaking, better dental hygiene, and more comfortable eating.

Braces are now more comfortable, more aesthetically pleasing, and need less time to treat because of modern technology. But fundamentally, braces still have the same qualities that make them such a successful orthodontic treatment. Pressure, patience and teamwork are necessary for successful braces treatment. All of these elements can be combined by skilled orthodontists to produce a customized treatment plan for each patient.

Components of Braces

Bracket: Bonding cement is used to affix orthodontic brackets to teeth. The movement and angle of teeth can be controlled by the built-in characteristics of these brackets. One of these characteristics is a slot that the dentist can insert the arch wire into, in order to enable controlled tooth movement. The bracket’s tie wings extend past its base and are situated at its corners. The elastomeric or stainless-steel ligatures that secure the wire to the bracket will be attached here by the dentist.

Bands: For teeth that are challenging to treat with brackets, molar bands are utilized. The arch wire is inserted into a slot in the molar bands to join them to the remaining brackets on the teeth. Additionally, some might feature a somewhat bigger tube for helmet placement. The band is fixed into place when the right size is chosen.

Arch wires: The wire that connects to your braces is called an orthodontic arch wire. Because your top teeth make up your top arch and your bottom teeth make up your bottom arch, it is known as an “arch wire”. Your teeth are guided and moved by an arch wire, which functions similarly to an engine. 

Ligatures: After inserting the arch wire into the groove of the orthodontic bracket, it needs to be fastened in place using a stainless steel or elastomeric ligature. Ligatures are not necessary for certain brackets, referred to as self-ligating brackets. 

Types of braces

Metal Braces: The most conventional and dependable kind of braces available are metallic ones. When compared to conventional orthodontic braces, they are reasonably priced and quickly fix misaligned teeth. Numerous orthodontic issues, both simple and difficult, can be resolved using metal braces. 

Clear Braces: Ceramic brackets that are tooth-coloured and blend in with natural teeth make up clear braces. For people who don’t want the typical “Metalhead mouth” that we see with metallic braces, they provide a discreet option. 

Lingual Braces: Lingual braces are alternatives to traditional iron braces. Here, the metal brackets and wires are almost invisible to the unaided eye because they are placed on the back surfaces or the insides of the teeth as opposed to the front surfaces. Each component is the same as those found in metal braces.

Invisalign: In this type of brace, 20-30 transparent trays are used to move the teeth gradually to their correct positions. They are a favourable substitute for metal braces. They are more costly than metallic braces and take a longer time to achieve the desired outcome. Each tray can be worn for approximately 3-4 weeks. 

Who needs braces?

Braces for teeth are generally associated with teenagers, but people of all age groups can use braces depending on the benefits. While it is natural to associate braces with middle schoolers, individuals from all ages may benefit from orthodontics. Dental braces may help if your jaw is troublesome, your teeth are crowded or your bite is not aligned. There are now more options for dental braces than ever before, ranging from clear tray aligners to more conventional metal braces.
