Fixed Braces
Snö offers a wide range of fixed orthodontic braces for children, teens, and adults to suit different lifestyles and budgets. Braces are wire-based attachments used to correct crowded or misaligned teeth and jaws, helping to create a straighter smile and an even bite. They consist of brackets, bands, spacers, archwires, and ties and can be placed on the outer (buccal) or inner (lingual) side of the teeth. While they require more effort than invisible aligners, fixed braces provide greater control and precision for effective treatment.
What Are Fixed Braces?
Fixed braces are wire-based attachments used to straighten teeth and correct jaw alignment, improving both function and appearance. They provide greater control and precision compared to removable aligners.
Braces typically include:
- Brackets, wires, and bands to gradually move teeth
- Placement on the buccal (outer) or lingual (inner) side of teeth
Who Needs Braces?
No matter your age, braces or dental appliances can help correct crooked or misaligned teeth.
You may be a good candidate for braces if you have any of the following bite issues:
Open Bite: Can cause difficulty chewing, speech issues, and jaw problems.
Overbite: Upper teeth extend too far over lower teeth, leading to gum irritation, tooth wear, and jaw pain.
Crowding: Lack of space can cause crooked teeth, plaque buildup, and a higher risk of decay and gum disease.
Crossbite: At least one upper tooth overlaps the lower teeth, leading to tooth wear, gum disease, and bone loss.
Underbite: Lower teeth extend beyond upper teeth, causing tooth wear and jaw pain.
Spacing: Gaps between teeth make cleaning harder, increasing the risk of gum disease.
