What Are Traditional Metal Braces?
Traditional metal braces use stainless steel brackets, archwires, and colorful bands to gently guide your bite into place. We make regular, gentle adjustments to ensure your treatment stays comfortable and on track. Braces are a reliable, proven way to get the smile you’ve always wanted.

First, we securely bond brackets to your teeth and connect them with a thin wire. From there, you can choose from a variety of elastic colors. After that, we’ll have you come in occasionally for checkups, where we’ll make quick adjustments and keep your progress moving forward.
