1. INTRODUCTION

3. INRODUCTION
Several different types of dental braces
may be recommended to improve teeth'
alignment, including traditional metal
braces, ceramic braces, lingual braces, and
Invisalign. Each type is associated with a
unique set of advantages and
disadvantages that must be considered to
decide the best treatment option for
individual patients.

4. 1.TRADITIONAL METAL
BRACES
Traditional braces involve
brackets and wires, usually made
out of metal attached to the
teeth and allow their positioning
to be altered as required. This
type of braces is typically the
least expensive option while
being very effective, and is one of
the most common types of
braces in use today.

5. 2. Ceramic
Braces
Ceramic braces are very similar to
the traditional metal braces in size
and shape, but they are constructed
of a ceramic material that blends
into the natural color of the teeth so
that the braces are less
noticeable.However, they are typically
more expensive than traditional
braces and may become stained if
they are not properly cared for.

6. 3. Lingual Braces
Lingual braces similar to traditional
braces as they are made out of
metal, but they are attached to the
inside of the teeth so that they
cannot be easily seen from the
outside.However, they are less
effective than traditional braces
and take longer to align the tooth.
They are mostly uncomfortable as
they come into direct contact with
the tongue and also tend to be
more difficult to clean.

7. 4. Invisalign
Invisalign is the most distinct type of
removable clear aligner braces. This
orthodontic system involves a range of clear
plastic aligners that resemble mouth guards,
and are custom-made for each patient. This
type of braces is preferable for many
patients because they are almost invisible
and allow greater freedom to eat and drink
anything. However, they are considerably
more expensive and can only be used to
correct minor to moderate dental problems
in teenagers and adults.

8. 5. Self-
Ligating
braces
Self-ligating braces are very similar in
appearance to traditional metal
braces, but utilize clips rather than
elastic bands to hold the wire of the
brace in place. As a result, there is
less friction on the braces and it is
usually easier for the individual to
keep the braces and teeth clean.

9. CONCLUSION
All the above methods will be able to give
you the perfect smile you always wanted.
However, the choice of orthodontic
braces in Guelph will depend upon the
severity of malalignment as well as your
own preference and budget
constraints.Therefore, your dentist is the
best person to help you decide which
option is best for you and make a better
decision to acquire that perfect smile
that you deserve!
