Traditional fixed braces are an effective and affordable method to straighten your teeth and achieve your dream smile. This tried-and-tested treatment is now more efficient than ever before thanks to modern technology, offered here at Scunthorpe Orthodontics.
With fixed braces, a metal bracket is attached to the front of each tooth with an orthodontic adhesive glue. Then, thin metal archwires are threaded between the brackets and held in place by small elastic bands. This system applies gentle pressure to shape your smile.
During your treatment at Scunthorpe Orthodontics, you will come in for regularly scheduled adjustment appointments. Dr Jackson, Our Specialist Orthodontist will make small bends in your archwires to increase pressure and gradually guide your teeth into their optimum position.
Fixed braces are an effective orthodontic treatment option for all ages. They are especially popular with younger children and teenagers alike, who love to choose coloured elastics to customise their braces and show off their personality and style!
It is paramount to keep on top of your oral hygiene during braces treatment, because the brackets give plaque extra places to hide. Our friendly team in Scunthorpe will show you how to clean around your braces effectively and efficiently, so you can enjoy a straighter, healthier smile after treatment.
