Teeth Braces

Medical Statistics say that in nearly 50 per cent of people, teeth are irregular, crooked or not aligned. With advances in the field of dentistry, particularly in the branch of orthodontics which deals with correction of irregularities in the teeth and jaws, the treatment of such teeth is not difficult. Type of teeth braces are further divided into:

1. Ceramic braces

2. Invasalign braces

3. Lingual braces

4. Metal braces

Ceramic Braces: Ceramic braces are made of tooth colored composite materials. Adults like to choose ceramic because they ‘blend in and match’ with the natural teeth and are less noticeable to outsiders than metal braces. These are the type of braces Tom Curise had. The advantages are that they are virtually invisible, more comfortable and irritate gums less than the metal braces, but are more expensive and may require some extra sittings.

Invasalign Braces: Great for people who do not have severe problems. The braces consist of strong plastic trays that are fabricated especially on individual basis. They are indeed invisible. One can get the teeth straightened without anyone seeing that one is wearing braces. Trays for treatment are computer fabricated by align technologies. They are absolutely invisible to the outsiders.

Lingual Braces: These are placed behind the teeth rather than the usual front portion of the teeth and are virtually invisible to others. Only few specially trained professional orthodontists carry out treatment with lingual braces.

Metal Braces: Used for traditional orthodontics treatment. These are very strong and can withstand most types of treatment.
