Fixed
Braces
What are
Fixed braces
Fixed braces, also known as brackets, cannot be removed by the person wearing them. Fixed braces consist of little brackets that are glued to the teeth. Locked around the teeth are metal rings (bands). Attached to it are small metal tubes. The brackets and tubes are connected with a resilient wire. There are other types of braces that are fixed, such as the hyrax. Usually these braces are attached to the molars with metal rings.
For whom?
For everyone
Fixed braces are a match for everyone who has lost their baby teeth. In special situations, preparatory work with different brace types and/ or surgery can be required. This is dependent on the wishes, development and adaptability of the person.

Getting started

Checkups
Every 4 weeks we expect you to come in for a checkup. During this appointment, we can make the necessary adjustments, answer any questions you may have, and make sure the treatment is going according to plan.
Nearing the end
When the treatment is coming to its end, we sit together to discuss your results. If the original goals are reached, we can go ahead and order your night retainers or splints. It may also be possible that more braces are required.
