Metal Braces
Today's metal braces are smaller, smoother and more efficient than ever, a reliable choice for every age.
Low-profile stainless steel brackets bonded to your teeth, connected by a thin archwire that guides each tooth into place.
Dr. Sarit adjusts the wire at short, regular visits. Each adjustment applies gentle, continuous pressure that moves teeth predictably.
Metal braces handle the widest range of orthodontic problems and often finish complex cases faster than other options.
Metal braces suit almost everyone: kids, teens and adults with crowding, spacing or bite problems, including complex cases that aligners can't handle. If you want a dependable option that works around the clock without daily discipline, this is usually it.
FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions about metal braces.
Placement is painless. Teeth can feel tender for a few days after adjustments. Soft foods and over-the-counter pain relief are usually all you need.
Most comprehensive cases finish in 18–24 months. Dr. Sarit gives you a personal timeline at your consultation and keeps treatment efficient.
Absolutely. Healthy teeth can move at any age, and many of our braces patients are adults who want a dependable, all-inclusive option.
A relaxed consultation with photos and a digital scan, then an honest conversation about whether metal braces fit your case. You leave knowing your likely timeline and your all-inclusive fee before anything is ever bonded to a tooth.
Your consultation ends with one all-inclusive fee covering records, brackets, every adjustment visit and your retainers. In-house payment plans and CareCredit financing spread the cost into manageable monthly amounts; our Financing page has the details.
Skip hard, sticky and chewy foods: ice, whole nuts, caramel, gum and popcorn are the usual culprits. Almost everything else stays on the menu, and most cravings survive in a cut-up, cooked or bite-size version until the braces come off.
