Traditional Orthodontics

Today’s braces are more comfortable and easy to wear than they ever have been before. Thanks to new tools and technologies, they are lightweight and easy to clean. Made of high-quality stainless steel and other strong materials, braces are a durable option for straightening the teeth and correcting bad bites.

Braces for Kids & Adults

Braces can be a great orthodontic option for children, teens, and adults. It’s never too late to straighten your teeth and improve your dental health. If you or a family member wants to learn more about braces, including how long your treatment would take and what your orthodontic options are, talk to the experienced team at Creekside Dental Clinic.

How Braces Correct Your Bite

When you’re fitted with braces, your dentist will first attach brackets to the front or back of your teeth (depending on the type of braces you need). Then, wires will be attached to the brackets. The brackets and wires slowly put pressure on the teeth, moving them into new positions over time. You’ll need to visit your dentist every few months to have your braces checked and adjusted.
