The Tried-and-True Orthodontic Treatment
Orthodontic treatment usually brings to mind images of metal or ceramic brackets applied to the teeth, and thin wires with wonderfully colored elastics to make a smile stand out! Over the years, traditional appliances have been proven to be incredibly effective in straightening teeth and addressing bite problems. Braces remain a very popular option among patients of all ages, for a variety of reasons.

How Do Classic Orthodontic Braces Work?
When you choose traditional braces, the first step that Dr. Fran will take is the process of adhering brackets to each tooth. These brackets will be responsible for holding a metal archwire in place so that a mild and strategically calculated amount of pressure can be applied to your teeth. This pressure gradually shifts the poorly positioned teeth into their ideal locations. Approximately every four to eight weeks, you’ll return to our orthodontic office so we can adjust the force of the archwire and allow tooth movement to progress. We’ll also be happy to answer any questions that you may have as you see the changes occurring in your mouth.
