What are braces?

Braces are dental devices used to align teeth correctly so that patients get beautiful smiles, comfortable bites and clear speech. The dental speciality that covers braces is called orthodontics.

What types of braces are available?

Braces are structural or cosmetic. Structural braces are fitted for children while cosmetic braces are placed for adults and adolescents. Braces may be fixed or removable. Structural or traditional braces are made of stainless steel. Cosmetic braces are made of clear ceramic material or clear plastic. Some braces are self-ligating, that is, they use a slide mechanism rather than elastic bands to connect to the dental archwire. Lingual braces are metal braces placed on the inner surface of teeth. This type of brace is not visible and are preferred by patients requiring cosmetic braces.

How long do you have to wear braces for?

The length of orthodontic treatment depends on the needs and orthodontic problems of each individual patient. Treatments for adults may take a longer time. On average, patients need to wear braces for about 2 years and then they need to wear a retainer to maintain the corrected position of teeth. For some adults treatment may take about 3 years.

How are braces installed on teeth?

For fixed braces, the orthodontist dries the teeth and places glue or bonding cement on the braces. The braces are placed on teeth and a UV light is shone on them to cure the glue or cement. For removable braces, an impression of the teeth is taken and a technician makes the removable brace consisting of a plastic plate and wires. The brace is then fitted on teeth.

How do braces work on teeth?

Braces exert a steady pressure on teeth. The pressure is periodically adjusted as needed by the orthodontist. Eventually the pressure exerted by braces corrects the alignment of teeth.

Do braces hurt?

Braces are uncomfortable when first placed on teeth. Patients experience soreness and need to get used to the pressure exerted on the teeth by braces. Patients normally get used to braces within a month.

Would highly recommend this practiceJennifer, UK, 05 05 23

I have been a patient at the practice for 6 years now. I originally had orthodontic treatment with Dr Daryl, who exceeded my expectations. Completely pain free and was giving all the information at every step of the way. Would highly recommend this practice.

Braces  
Dentistry On The Square are one of only a few cosmetic dentists in Glasgow that can provide you with an exciting technology, making it easier and faster to straighten your teeth, “High Speed Braces ™”. There is a lot of misinformation out there about straightening teeth! Mark Skimming has been straightening teeth for years. He is a certified dentist by the General Dentistry Council and a Member of the British Dental Association. To put it simply, Mark understands the downsides of braces and made it his mission in life to find a better way – and now he did! Not only for children, but for adults too! Before you decide on any treatment we ask you to come down to the practice for a Complimentary Consultation. This helps us to assess your needs and help you find the best straight teeth solution at the right price for you. In addition we will… Assess your needs and budget Decide which type of teeth straightening is right for you- e.g. Clear Aligner, 6 Month Smiles Discuss how long invisible braces take to straighten your teeth Talk about how much treatments cost Did you know you can have your teeth whitened and straightened at the same time? Explain why Invisible braces aren’t for everyone. Now we can kill 2 birds with one stone! You can whiten, brighten, and straighten your teeth all at once! Then after your teeth are straightened, you can touch up your smile if it´s not as bright as you want it to be! Isn’t that a deal! Usually whitening trays can cost as much as £200! Now we have the technology that can straighten and whiten all at the same time!
