Metal braces will make your smile perfect!

People who are unhappy with their teeth or have any problems with biting are often advised to put metal braces on their teeth. In this case, you yourself can choose the material from which they will be made (for example, sapphire, ceramics, metal). The most popular braces are those that have a base of metal. They are inexpensive and faster to cope with the task.

Metal braces (photo below) consist of various metals, which are combined into a single, robust construction. This is necessary for greater reliability and improved therapeutic effect. By the way, metal in braces should not be oxidized. This is the most important characteristic.

Metal braces for each patient are selected individually. This is necessary to achieve the maximum positive effect, because the structure of the jaw bone and teeth has its own. To properly choose braces from metal, the doctor should make a panoramic shot, profile photo and facet, x-ray of the skull and plaster model (for this it is necessary to remove the impression of the teeth with a special material).

Before you go to put metal braces, you need to cure all the teeth and perform their special cleaning in the dental clinic.

After the metal braces are made, they are fixed on the teeth. The installation of braces on one jaw takes about one hour. First, a metal plate is glued onto each tooth, then an arc with metal memory is attached to them. At first it twists slightly, taking the form of teeth. And then it will gradually begin to straighten and straighten the teeth. Arcs are gently tied with litters, and on the sixth or seventh tooth put orthodontic rings or cheek lock.

After the braces are installed, the patient feels discomfort for some time or even pain. Therefore, their wearing should be under the constant supervision of the dentist, since only he can correctly correct the bite.

On average, metal braces form a correct bite in four months. It is worth noting that braces from other materials cope with the problem for a longer time, and they are more expensive.

Pros of brackets made of metal:

• Correction of bite in a shorter time;
• Lower price.

The most expensive braces are lingual. The price will depend on the material (stainless steel, metal systems, titanium alloys, silver, gold).

Metal braces can be worn by both teenagers and children. If you insert beautiful color ligatures in them, then it will be not only an effective remedy, but also a stylish accessory. In this case, braces do not affect the tooth enamel, so they will suit children.
