What are braces?

Braces are dental devices used to align teeth correctly so that patients get beautiful smiles, comfortable bites and clear speech. The dental speciality that covers braces is called orthodontics.

What types of braces are available?

Braces are structural or cosmetic. Structural braces are fitted for children while cosmetic braces are placed for adults and adolescents. Braces may be fixed or removable. Structural or traditional braces are made of stainless steel. Cosmetic braces are made of clear ceramic material or clear plastic. Some braces are self-ligating, that is, they use a slide mechanism rather than elastic bands to connect to the dental archwire. Lingual braces are metal braces placed on the inner surface of teeth. This type of brace is not visible and are preferred by patients requiring cosmetic braces.

How long do you have to wear braces for?

The length of orthodontic treatment depends on the needs and orthodontic problems of each individual patient. Treatments for adults may take a longer time. On average, patients need to wear braces for about 2 years and then they need to wear a retainer to maintain the corrected position of teeth. For some adults treatment may take about 3 years.

How are braces installed on teeth?

For fixed braces, the orthodontist dries the teeth and places glue or bonding cement on the braces. The braces are placed on teeth and a UV light is shone on them to cure the glue or cement. For removable braces, an impression of the teeth is taken and a technician makes the removable brace consisting of a plastic plate and wires. The brace is then fitted on teeth.

How do braces work on teeth?

Braces exert a steady pressure on teeth. The pressure is periodically adjusted as needed by the orthodontist. Eventually the pressure exerted by braces corrects the alignment of teeth.

Do braces hurt?

Braces are uncomfortable when first placed on teeth. Patients experience soreness and need to get used to the pressure exerted on the teeth by braces. Patients normally get used to braces within a month.

I were very pleased with our choiceJeannette, UK, 19 12 22

Very surprised how at ease the dentist & nurse made me feel. We both had to leave our usual dentist as it had shut down. After being with a dentist for many years it’s a bit worrying finding a new one. Both my husband & I were very pleased with our choice. We especially like the dentist for explaining going forward he will do a dental plan & explain our procedures. My husband has trouble with lower dentures he can’t wear them. With the Blue Raven Dentist he has given my husband an idea how he can make them fit in future. Treatment is yet to start it will be after Christmas. Blue Raven is a very clean well organised Dental Practice.

My treatment was well explained and pain-freeRoy, UK, 22 07 21

Felt compelled to review! What a practice! If you are fortunate enough to register, the experience is second to none. I have the normal phobia's visiting the dentist. The treatment I have received when in either the dentist's or the hygienist chair is faultless. In the dentist's chair, I found myself staring at the tasteful digital photos scrolling, as well as watching a turtle dove feeding off a bird table in the tranquil gardens, all this, while Ian (Ian Small) was probably busy hacking into a live nerve. My treatment was well explained and pain-free! as well as the post-treatment, which included visual evidence i.e. x-rays to provide for a well-informed process. Further treatment with the hygienist Sam (Sam Davidson), was calming and again, so informative. What a rewarding experience! as my teeth looked like they just stepped out of a salon (the Air polish treatment - wow!). The dental assistants for both my treatments were super-efficient and would put an F1 pit team to shame. I would also give a shouting out to the administrative team, who have always been courteous and welcoming with callbacks, bookings etc. maintaining the lofty standards of service delivery. BRAVO!!!

A very positive experienceMarion, UK, 09 09 22

On my first visit to the clinic I was greeted by Billy who took me through the booking in experience and was very helpful as was Sarah who made the appointment. Sam and Barbara were my nurses who set me at ease as I was having a tooth extraction and when all was ready I met Dr Shaffie who was so kind and understood my concerns as I take blood thinners. My treatment was quick and I hardly had time to wonder what would happen when the tooth was out! It was pain free and the nurses let me rest while they explained what to do at home they put a compress on my gums so that the bleeding was reduced. A very positive experience.
