Fixed Braces
Fixed braces are appliances that sit on the outside of your teeth. They stay on your teeth throughout treatment and can not be removed. As they can not be removed, modifications have to be made to your diet to avoid breakages and damage to your teeth and gums. As they sit on the front of your teeth they are noticeable when you smile. The fixed braces can be made from different materials with differing properties. The main fixed braces I recommend are metal or ceramic. Metal braces are more noticeable than ceramic. The ceramic braces blend in better with your tooth colour. Fixed braces also use wires to move teeth.
