Metal dental braces

Metal dental braces are a standard orthodontic treatment for correcting crooked teeth, overcrowding, bite problems, jaw misalignment, and gaps between teeth. Metal brackets and wires pressure the teeth, slowly moving them into their correct positions. This non-surgical outpatient treatment takes around five days. The dentist asks about your dental history, including previous treatments, current symptoms, and medical conditions. Then they examine the teeth, gums, and jaw to determine the best treatment plan. First, the dentist discusses the treatment options with you, including the benefits and risks of metal dental braces. Next, panoramic X-rays and CT scans provide a detailed view of the teeth and jaw bones. Finally, 3D computer planning is used to plan the position of the braces and the teeth' movements. The dentist cleans your teeth during pre-procedure preparation and provides any necessary instructions. Then they attach the metal brackets to the teeth and connect them with wires, which apply gentle pressure to move the teeth. The patient gets care instructions, including proper food and hygiene. The dentist may recommend pain relievers or prescribe medication. Metal dental braces improve dental aesthetics and function, chewing and speaking, reduce the chance of tooth decay and gum disease risk, and improve oral health and hygiene.
