Why Choose Braces?
Braces are a time-tested solution for a wide range of alignment issues. They use a system of brackets, wires, and elastic bands to gradually reposition teeth over time. Today’s braces are smaller, more comfortable, and more efficient than ever before—making them a practical and effective option for many patients.
Braces Can Treat:
- Overbites and underbites
- Crossbites and open bites
- Crowded or crooked teeth
- Large gaps or spacing issues
- Jaw misalignment and bite irregularities
The Braces Treatment Process
- Initial Consultation
We begin with a full evaluation and imaging to assess your bite and create a detailed treatment plan. - Bracket Placement
Brackets are bonded to the teeth and connected with a flexible archwire that applies gentle pressure to guide teeth into alignment. - Routine Adjustments
You’ll return every few weeks for check-ups and adjustments to ensure steady progress. - Retention Phase
Once your braces are removed, a custom retainer is provided to preserve your new smile and prevent relapse.
Modern Braces Options
At South Palm Dental, we understand that every patient’s needs are different. We offer a range of braces and components designed to make treatment as efficient and comfortable as possible:
- Metal Braces: Durable, cost-effective, and highly customizable
- Clear or Ceramic Brackets: A more discreet option for teens and adults
- Custom Archwires: Designed for precision and shorter treatment times
Our team will explain each option during your consultation and help you select the best path for your smile goals.
A Straight Smile Is a Healthy Smile
Properly aligned teeth are about more than just appearance. Braces improve the way your teeth function, making it easier to bite, chew, speak, and clean your teeth. They also reduce the risk of tooth decay, gum disease, and uneven wear on enamel over time.
Expertise You Can Trust
Orthodontic care at South Palm Dental is led by a compassionate, knowledgeable team that includes Dr. Luis Franceschi and Dr. Mary-Helen Habib. Their commitment to detail, patient comfort, and evidence-based practices ensures each step of your treatment is tailored to your needs and lifestyle.
