Types of braces for your perfect smile

Your smile is your identity, its what lightens the mood of those around you, it lifts the spirit of those whom you are with, that smile tells people a lot about you. There are however some of us, who aren't gifted with that radiant smile. Those of us who don't have it can achieve it y the help of a trained dentist and braces. Your teeth just need a bit of mending to make them reach the stage of perfection. There are several different types of braces out there, so here's a list of the most popular types of braces.

Lingual (Invisible) Braces – (Behind the teeth)

Imagine if you could have braces and no one else knows about, that's possible with Lingual Braces. Here, the braces are placed behind the teeth and so become invisible to everyone else. Each brace is uniquely made to ensure that they provide just enough force to push your teeth straight.

Self-ligating braces/ the smart braces

These braces make use of a high-tech wire system that is more comfortable than conventional braces and these are specially designed to require fewer adjustments. This reduces the number of visits you need to make to your dentist.The self-ligating braces technology entirely removes the need for rubber bands. Instead, a special clip system does the work of the rubber band. If you have these braces on, it means fewer visits to the dentist and lesser discomfort.

Ceramic Clear braces/Tooth coloured braces

As the name suggests these braces are the same colour as our teeth, they act as the perfect disguise. They blend in with your teeth and give you the confidence to smile more often even as you wear those braces.

Metal braces

These words may wring scary to many of you, a lot of adults may still have nightmares about the metal braces they wore as kids. However, this is no longer true, metal braces are no longer what they used to be, they are much more comfortable and come with a smooth finish that makes them far superior to their ancestors.
