How do braces work?

Traditional braces are wires, brackets, and elastics tightened throughout treatment to shift and straighten your teeth.

With braces, Dr. John Vondrak adjusts pressure to specific teeth precisely to encourage your teeth to move into the desired position. You will likely feel pressure or slight discomfort after your braces are fitted or adjusted. This minor discomfort is normal and means your braces are doing their job.

Every 8-10 weeks, you’ll get closer to seeing a brand new smile!

Are braces the right choice?

Braces are an excellent option for anyone looking to enhance their smile and self-confidence. While anyone can benefit from treatment with traditional braces, adults may have longer treatment times than children under 18.

There have been advancements in braces technology in recent years, meaning that they aren’t as large as they used to be. Braces don’t have to be uncomfortable or ugly–you can own your style and be bold with fun colors. Choosing braces puts your confidence at the top of your priorities.

After treatment, the smile you dreamed of becomes a reality.

Benefits of traditional braces

While traditional braces are not clear and discreet like Invisalign, their benefits may outweigh the drawbacks, especially for teens.

• Treat more severe or complicated cases.
• Relatively quick treatment times
• Generally more cost-effective than Invisalign
• Stay in place, so you don’t have to worry about leaving them in long enough.

Sticking to a treatment plan can be tedious because of the demands of treatment with removable aligners. However, with braces, you must maintain good oral hygiene habits, and your orthodontist will do all the work for you. You can have a beautiful smile relatively quickly with some basic upkeep required.
