They consist of metal brackets that are glued onto the front of the teeth and metallic wires that pass through these brackets to apply pressure on the teeth. The pressure on the teeth helps them gradually move into their proper positions in the mouth, which is the basis of orthodontic treatment. Sometimes, metallic braces may have coloured rubber bands or metal ties to help apply guided pressure.&#8221; font_size=&#8221;lg:18&#8243;][\/vc_column][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/2&#8243;][tm_spacer size=&#8221;lg:50&#8243;][tm_image border_color=&#8221;primary&#8221; image=&#8221;2643&#8243; lg_spacing=&#8221;border_top:4;border_right:4;border_bottom:4;border_left:4&#8243;][vc_row_inner][vc_column_inner width=&#8221;1\/2&#8243;][tm_image image_size=&#8221;custom&#8221; align=&#8221;center&#8221; image=&#8221;2967&#8243; image_size_height=&#8221;128&#8243; image_size_width=&#8221;160&#8243;][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=&#8221;1\/2&#8243;][tm_image image_size=&#8221;custom&#8221; align=&#8221;center&#8221; image=&#8221;2838&#8243; image_size_width=&#8221;150&#8243;][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row full_width=&#8221;stretch_row_content_no_spaces&#8221;][vc_column offset=&#8221;vc_col-lg-4&#8243;][tm_box_icon style=&#8221;4&#8243; icon_type=&#8221;fontawesome5&#8243; icon_fontawesome5=&#8221;fa fa-award&#8221; overlay_background=&#8221;primary&#8221; overlay_opacity=&#8221;100&#8243; heading=&#8221;Award Winning Clinic&#8221; text=&#8221;Susan Crean Dental &amp; Facial Aesthetics is proud to have won and to have been nominated for various awards&#8221; box_shadow=&#8221;0 20px 30px #ccc&#8221; lg_spacing=&#8221;margin_bottom:0&#8243;][\/vc_column][vc_column offset=&#8221;vc_col-lg-4&#8243;][tm_box_icon style=&#8221;4&#8243; icon_type=&#8221;fontawesome5&#8243; icon_fontawesome5=&#8221;far fa-handshake&#8221; overlay_background=&#8221;primary&#8221; overlay_opacity=&#8221;100&#8243; heading=&#8221;Safe, Relaxing Atmosphere&#8221; text=&#8221;We are experts dealing with nervous patients, there is no need to fear the dentist anymore&#8221; box_shadow=&#8221;0 20px 30px #ccc&#8221; lg_spacing=&#8221;margin_bottom:0&#8243;][\/vc_column][vc_column offset=&#8221;vc_col-lg-4&#8243;][tm_box_icon style=&#8221;4&#8243; icon_type=&#8221;fontawesome5&#8243; icon_fontawesome5=&#8221;fal fa-smile-beam&#8221; overlay_background=&#8221;primary&#8221; overlay_opacity=&#8221;100&#8243; heading=&#8221;Aesthetic Experts&#8221; text=&#8221;We can help you achieve the smile that you always dreamed of, contact us today&#8221; box_shadow=&#8221;0 20px 30px #ccc&#8221; lg_spacing=&#8221;margin_bottom:0&#8243;][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row full_width=&#8221;stretch_row&#8221; background_color=&#8221;primary&#8221; lg_spacing=&#8221;padding_top:100;padding_bottom:100&#8243;][vc_column][vc_row_inner gutter=&#8221;xs:30;sm:50;md:80;lg:100&#8243; xs_spacing=&#8221;padding_top:30;padding_bottom:30&#8243;][vc_column_inner width=&#8221;1\/2&#8243;][tm_heading custom_google_font=&#8221;&#8221; text_color=&#8221;secondary&#8221; text=&#8221;What is orthodontic treatment?&#8221; font_size=&#8221;lg:36&#8243; line_height=&#8221;46px&#8221;][tm_spacer size=&#8221;lg:30&#8243;][tm_heading tag=&#8221;div&#8221; custom_google_font=&#8221;&#8221; text_color=&#8221;secondary&#8221; text=&#8221;Orthodontic treatment is one of the eight specialized branches of Dentistry. Quite simply,, Orthodontic treatment is the correction of misaligned teeth (i.e. crooked, rotated, protruded or crowded teeth), an improper bite or jaw bone abnormalities. The treatment moves teeth gradually into their proper positions and adjusts the jaw bones to achieve good aesthetics. The result is a beautiful and pleasing smile.<br \/>\nOrthodontic treatment uses either fixed or removable devices to bring about the corrections. The fixed type of treatment comprises braces, which can be metallic braces, ceramic braces or invisible braces (Invisalign).&#8221; font_size=&#8221;lg:18&#8243;][tm_spacer size=&#8221;lg:30&#8243;][tm_image image_size=&#8221;custom&#8221; align=&#8221;center&#8221; custom_border_color=&#8221;#4a0e78&#8243; image=&#8221;3178&#8243; lg_spacing=&#8221;border_top:0;border_right:0;border_bottom:0;border_left:0&#8243; image_size_width=&#8221;400&#8243; image_size_height=&#8221;200&#8243;][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=&#8221;1\/2&#8243;][tm_heading tag=&#8221;h2&#8243; custom_google_font=&#8221;&#8221; text_color=&#8221;secondary&#8221; text=&#8221;What oral health issues can braces treat?&#8221; font_size=&#8221;lg:36&#8243; line_height=&#8221;46px&#8221;][tm_spacer size=&#8221;lg:30&#8243;][tm_heading tag=&#8221;div&#8221; custom_google_font=&#8221;&#8221; text_color=&#8221;secondary&#8221; text=&#8221;Braces can treat a wide range of problems related to tooth positions and the facial bone structure.

There is no age limit to getting braces. However, young bone is more flexible, and it\u2019s easier to move the tooth early on, so it\u2019s better if orthodontic treatment is initiated as early as possible. With age, the bone becomes denser and may be accompanied by issues like gum disease or decay, so it\u2019s a more complicated process.<br \/>\nThat being said, if you want to get braces, you need to meet certain criteria. Your teeth should be structurally sound and clear of any periodontal or gum disease. Patients with poor oral health are not considered suitable for braces.&#8221; font_size=&#8221;lg:18&#8243;][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row full_width=&#8221;stretch_row&#8221; background_color=&#8221;secondary&#8221; lg_spacing=&#8221;padding_top:80;padding_bottom:80&#8243;][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/2&#8243; offset=&#8221;vc_col-lg-6&#8243;][tm_heading custom_google_font=&#8221;&#8221; text_color=&#8221;custom&#8221; custom_text_color=&#8221;#ffffff&#8221; icon_type=&#8221;icomoon&#8221; icon_icomoon=&#8221;icomoon-chat-1&#8243; icon_color=&#8221;primary&#8221; text=&#8221;What is the treatment process of <mark>Braces?<\/mark>&#8221; font_size=&#8221;lg:36&#8243; icon_font_size=&#8221;lg:54&#8243;][tm_spacer size=&#8221;lg:20&#8243;][tm_heading tag=&#8221;div&#8221; custom_google_font=&#8221;&#8221; text_color=&#8221;primary&#8221; text=&#8221;Once you book a consultation with our team of Orthodontists, we will examine your teeth, mouth and jaws thoroughly to check what issues need to be corrected.

Ceramic braces have tooth coloured brackets and a thin metal or plastic coated wire, which does not give the \u2018metalhead\u2019 mouth we often see with metallic braces.<\/li>\n<li>Lingual Braces<br \/>\nInstead of placing brackets on the front of teeth, lingual braces place brackets on the insides of the teeth and hence are well hidden from observers. The brackets and wires used are the same as those used in metal braces. Lingual braces, however, require more effort to keep clean and may feel uncomfortable in the beginning. They also require more frequent adjustments and are priced higher than conventional metal braces.<\/li>\n<li>Invisalign<br \/>\nInvisalign technology uses a 3-D imaging system to scan your entire oral cavity and create a series of clear plastic aligners or trays that are worn on top of your teeth. The trays are changed every 2-3 weeks as and when tooth movement occurs to bring your teeth to their most aesthetic positions.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n                    <\/div>\r\n                <\/div>\r\n

text=&#8221;Metal Braces (also referred to as train track braces) are the most commonly used type of braces in conventional orthodontics. They consist of metal brackets that are glued onto the front of the teeth and metallic wires that pass through these brackets to apply pressure on the teeth. The pressure on the teeth helps them gradually move into their proper positions in the mouth, which is the basis of orthodontic treatment. Sometimes, metallic braces may have coloured rubber bands or metal ties to help apply guided pressure.&#8221; font_size=&#8221;lg:18&#8243;][\/vc_column][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/2&#8243;][tm_spacer size=&#8221;lg:50&#8243;][tm_image border_color=&#8221;primary&#8221; image=&#8221;2643&#8243; lg_spacing=&#8221;border_top:4;border_right:4;border_bottom:4;border_left:4&#8243;][vc_row_inner][vc_column_inner width=&#8221;1\/2&#8243;][tm_image image_size=&#8221;custom&#8221; align=&#8221;center&#8221; image=&#8221;2967&#8243; image_size_height=&#8221;128&#8243; image_size_width=&#8221;160&#8243;][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=&#8221;1\/2&#8243;][tm_image image_size=&#8221;custom&#8221; align=&#8221;center&#8221; image=&#8221;2838&#8243; image_size_width=&#8221;150&#8243;][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row full_width=&#8221;stretch_row_content_no_spaces&#8221;][vc_column offset=&#8221;vc_col-lg-4&#8243;][tm_box_icon style=&#8221;4&#8243; icon_type=&#8221;fontawesome5&#8243; icon_fontawesome5=&#8221;fa fa-award&#8221; overlay_background=&#8221;primary&#8221; overlay_opacity=&#8221;100&#8243; heading=&#8221;Award Winning Clinic&#8221; text=&#8221;Susan Crean Dental &amp; Facial Aesthetics is proud to have won and to have been nominated for various awards&#8221; box_shadow=&#8221;0 20px 30px #ccc&#8221; lg_spacing=&#8221;margin_bottom:0&#8243;][\/vc_column][vc_column offset=&#8221;vc_col-lg-4&#8243;][tm_box_icon style=&#8221;4&#8243; icon_type=&#8221;fontawesome5&#8243; icon_fontawesome5=&#8221;far fa-handshake&#8221; overlay_background=&#8221;primary&#8221; overlay_opacity=&#8221;100&#8243; heading=&#8221;Safe, Relaxing Atmosphere&#8221; text=&#8221;We are experts dealing with nervous patients, there is no need to fear the dentist anymore&#8221; box_shadow=&#8221;0 20px 30px #ccc&#8221; lg_spacing=&#8221;margin_bottom:0&#8243;][\/vc_column][vc_column offset=&#8221;vc_col-lg-4&#8243;][tm_box_icon style=&#8221;4&#8243; icon_type=&#8221;fontawesome5&#8243; icon_fontawesome5=&#8221;fal fa-smile-beam&#8221; overlay_background=&#8221;primary&#8221; overlay_opacity=&#8221;100&#8243; heading=&#8221;Aesthetic Experts&#8221; text=&#8221;We can help you achieve the smile that you always dreamed of, contact us today&#8221; box_shadow=&#8221;0 20px 30px #ccc&#8221; lg_spacing=&#8221;margin_bottom:0&#8243;][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row full_width=&#8221;stretch_row&#8221; background_color=&#8221;primary&#8221; lg_spacing=&#8221;padding_top:100;padding_bottom:100&#8243;][vc_column][vc_row_inner gutter=&#8221;xs:30;sm:50;md:80;lg:100&#8243; xs_spacing=&#8221;padding_top:30;padding_bottom:30&#8243;][vc_column_inner width=&#8221;1\/2&#8243;][tm_heading custom_google_font=&#8221;&#8221; text_color=&#8221;secondary&#8221; text=&#8221;What is orthodontic treatment?&#8221; font_size=&#8221;lg:36&#8243; line_height=&#8221;46px&#8221;][tm_spacer size=&#8221;lg:30&#8243;][tm_heading tag=&#8221;div&#8221; custom_google_font=&#8221;&#8221; text_color=&#8221;secondary&#8221; text=&#8221;Orthodontic treatment is one of the eight specialized branches of Dentistry. Quite simply,, Orthodontic treatment is the correction of misaligned teeth (i.e. crooked, rotated, protruded or crowded teeth), an improper bite or jaw bone abnormalities. The treatment moves teeth gradually into their proper positions and adjusts the jaw bones to achieve good aesthetics. The result is a beautiful and pleasing smile. Orthodontic treatment uses either fixed or removable devices to bring about the corrections. The fixed type of treatment comprises braces, which can be metallic braces, ceramic braces or invisible braces (Invisalign).&#8221; font_size=&#8221;lg:18&#8243;][tm_spacer size=&#8221;lg:30&#8243;][tm_image image_size=&#8221;custom&#8221; align=&#8221;center&#8221; custom_border_color=&#8221;#4a0e78&#8243; image=&#8221;3178&#8243; lg_spacing=&#8221;border_top:0;border_right:0;border_bottom:0;border_left:0&#8243; image_size_width=&#8221;400&#8243; image_size_height=&#8221;200&#8243;][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=&#8221;1\/2&#8243;][tm_heading tag=&#8221;h2&#8243; custom_google_font=&#8221;&#8221; text_color=&#8221;secondary&#8221; text=&#8221;What oral health issues can braces treat?&#8221; font_size=&#8221;lg:36&#8243; line_height=&#8221;46px&#8221;][tm_spacer size=&#8221;lg:30&#8243;][tm_heading tag=&#8221;div&#8221; custom_google_font=&#8221;&#8221; text_color=&#8221;secondary&#8221; text=&#8221;Braces can treat a wide range of problems related to tooth positions and the facial bone structure.

There is no age limit to getting braces. However, young bone is more flexible, and it\u2019s easier to move the tooth early on, so it\u2019s better if orthodontic treatment is initiated as early as possible. With age, the bone becomes denser and may be accompanied by issues like gum disease or decay, so it\u2019s a more complicated process. That being said, if you want to get braces, you need to meet certain criteria. Your teeth should be structurally sound and clear of any periodontal or gum disease. Patients with poor oral health are not considered suitable for braces.&#8221; font_size=&#8221;lg:18&#8243;][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row full_width=&#8221;stretch_row&#8221; background_color=&#8221;secondary&#8221; lg_spacing=&#8221;padding_top:80;padding_bottom:80&#8243;][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/2&#8243; offset=&#8221;vc_col-lg-6&#8243;][tm_heading custom_google_font=&#8221;&#8221; text_color=&#8221;custom&#8221; custom_text_color=&#8221;#ffffff&#8221; icon_type=&#8221;icomoon&#8221; icon_icomoon=&#8221;icomoon-chat-1&#8243; icon_color=&#8221;primary&#8221; text=&#8221;What is the treatment process of Braces?&#8221; font_size=&#8221;lg:36&#8243; icon_font_size=&#8221;lg:54&#8243;][tm_spacer size=&#8221;lg:20&#8243;][tm_heading tag=&#8221;div&#8221; custom_google_font=&#8221;&#8221; text_color=&#8221;primary&#8221; text=&#8221;Once you book a consultation with our team of Orthodontists, we will examine your teeth, mouth and jaws thoroughly to check what issues need to be corrected.
