Fixed Braces and Orthodontic Treatment in London

Fixed Braces: The Gold Standard

Fixed braces are the most proven and effective orthodontic treatment available, consisting of brackets bonded to your teeth connected by archwires that apply gentle, continuous pressure to move teeth into their ideal positions. This time-tested technology has evolved significantly, offering various options to suit different needs and preferences.

Unlike removable aligners, fixed braces work continuously 24/7, making them highly effective for treating complex orthodontic cases. Whether you have severe crowding, significant bite issues, or need precise tooth movement, fixed braces deliver predictable, reliable results that last a lifetime.

Common Questions About Fixed Braces

You may experience some discomfort for a few days after braces are placed or adjusted. This is normal and can be managed with over-the-counter pain relievers. The discomfort typically subsides as your mouth adjusts.

How often do I need adjustments?

Regular adjustment appointments are typically scheduled every 4-8 weeks. These appointments are essential for progressing your treatment and ensuring optimal results.

Will I need to wear retainers after treatment?

Yes, retainers are crucial for maintaining your results after braces are removed. Initially, you'll wear them full-time, then transition to nighttime wear as directed by your orthodontist.
