Braces are the most traditional orthodontics method to align and straighten teeth, correcting a person’s bite and fix gaps. Braces treatment are customized individually to improve appearance, oral health and bite function.

Self-ligating braces uses self-ligating metal brackets that resemble little metal door, it holds the wire instead of coloured elastic ligatures.
Ceramic braces uses ceramic brackets that are tooth-coloured or clear that blend in to teeth.
Put simply, braces straighten your teeth and align your bite. This can be accomplished in a few
different ways.
Here at Parkway Dental Practice, we offer traditional metal braces, clear braces, and invisible
braces (Invisalign). Each case is different and we take pride in developing treatment plans tailored
to each patient’s unique needs.
Traditional braces work by simply applying the right amount of pressure to realign teeth. They
consist of several different components that are designed to move your teeth into the ideal
location.
The time required for braces varies from person to person, depending on the severity of the problem. On average, however, once the braces are put on, they usually remain in place for one to two years. After braces are removed, most people will need to wear a retainer all the time for the first 1 year, then only during sleep for many years.
Braces treatment are suitable for almost everyone from as young as 10 years old.
