Braces for Straighter Teeth
Once a cosmetic luxury, straight teeth have
become the norm for Americans, which leaves
those with misaligned teeth seeming as outcasts.
Braces can be used for both children and
adults and can not only affect a person's
dental hygiene but also their overall outlook
on life.
Orthodontic work takes time as the forces
are applied to reposition teeth act slowly.
Generally, the work can be completed in one
to three years. However, unless the work
was poorly done, most patients are very pleased
with the outcome.
The "metal mouth" braces
of old
are not the only choices today.
- Translucent braces are much more difficult
to see.
- Braces mounted to the tongue side of the
teeth are virtually invisible and do not
risk harming the visible surface of your
teeth.
