Traditional Metal Braces

Traditional metal braces are known for their efficacy and affordability. Metal brackets are affixed to the teeth, and wires thread through them to guide teeth into their correct positions. The wire is usually made of metal alloys optimized for comfort while providing sufficient force to align the teeth.

Traditional braces straighten teeth using a combination of brackets and wires affixed to your teeth. Dr. Zack may add elastic bands for additional force to assist in moving the teeth and correcting your bite. Tooth-colored ceramic brackets and advanced self-ligating brackets provide alternative options with unique benefits.
