💎Metal or traditional braces are the most common type of braces world-wide and have been around for over 100 years now. 💎Metal braces are most popular among children and adolescent patients. They work by applying the braces to the teeth and connecting them with a wire. The wire is tied to the braces using elastic ties, which come in an array colors to choose from. 💎To move the teeth, the orthodontist makes adjustments to the wire at your appointments every 4-8 weeks. 💎In the past, braces were very bulky and noticeable. Luckily, braces today are nothing like as the advances in innovation and technology have made it happen.
