Fixed braces

Serving patients throughout Portsmouth and Farlington

Fixed braces have been a popular straightening teeth solution for decades because of their effective and predictable results. Whilst they are suitable for treating simple cases, for some complex orthodontic problems there’s still no competition for traditional fixed braces.

What’s involved?

With a fixed solution, brackets are carefully bonded to your teeth, before joining them together with a wire which gradually aligns your teeth into a straighter position. The wire will need to be changed every 6 to 8 weeks and progress checked.

Treatment times vary depending on your individual alignment needs. For simple cases this could be just a few months, but for more complex movements, it usually takes between 12 months and two years to achieve your beautiful new smile.

Bold or discreet… your fixed braces options:

Metal braces and wires

The classic, most recognisable brace. Following recent advances in technology, fixed metal braces now use low profile brackets and wires for added comfort.

Clear braces

Often referred to as ceramic braces, tooth coloured braces or invisible braces, clear braces use clear brackets and tooth coloured wires for added discretion. They get the same great results as conventional metal braces – but they’re much harder to spot.

Everyone is very kind and they take the time to explain everything to you and to check all the details with you at your appointment. Feel very at ease with everyone and it makes a dentist check up and hygienist appointment very easy.

The hygienist is reassuring and takes time to explain what is being done and what can be done.
