What are Dental Braces?
Dental braces are tools designed to help correct certain problems with your teeth such as crowding, crooked teeth, gapped teeth, overbite, etc. Many people get teeth braces when they’re young, but also adults get them too. The type of braces you need depends on the severity and type of your problem. Braces slowly straighten and align your teeth helping to restore function to your teeth and make eating more comfortable.
At Arrow Dental Centre, our orthodontist team offers our patients outstanding options for affordable teeth braces.

Who is a Good Candidate For Alignment Braces?
Though teeth misalignment is the most popular reason for braces, numerous conditions are treatable with this orthodontic treatment. Some of the conditions include:
- Overcrowding makes cleaning teeth difficult
- Swallowing, chewing, or biting problems
- Gapped or missing teeth
- Crossbite, overbite, or underbite, crossbite, making chewing difficult
For children, we recommend that they complete their orthodontic treatment between ages 8 and 14.
Few people have perfect teeth, but orthodontic care can make a huge difference for you or your children. Our orthodontist might recommend any of the following dental braces to help correct your problem.
Clear Braces: Also, known as ceramic braces, they are similar to metal braces but are made from a glass-like transparent composite material. They are attached to the teeth with the help of rubber bands or transparent wires to realign and straighten the teeth. Ceramic braces are a popular alternative as they are less noticeable but are prone to breaking.
Gold Braces: They are similar to traditional metal braces and are made out of stainless steel overlaid with gold. They provide patients with a customization option in their braces treatment to incorporate a stylish color.
Lingual Braces: They are similar to traditional metal braces but are placed behind the teeth with wires so are noticeable. They are also known as incognito or hidden braces. While they offer discretion during orthodontic treatment, they are not a popular choice.
Mini Braces: These braces are about 30 percent smaller than traditional metal braces but are just as comfortable and strong. They are made of high-grade stainless steel and do not go around the teeth.
Clear and Removable Braces: Clear aligners also known as removable braces or Invisalign are mouthguard-like devices created from clear plastic. They are effective for moving teeth and can be easily removed by the patient without visiting the dentist.
Teeth alignment braces compress one side of the ligaments on the teeth while stretching ligaments on the other side of the teeth at the same time. Due to the compression, the bone on that side loses blood flow and dies. This results in an inflammation that involves bone-eating cells removing the bone, clearing the path, and allowing the tooth to move in that direction.
Due to the inflammation, you might feel discomfort in the teeth. This is intense during the first few days but subsides once the teeth start moving. On the side where ligaments are being stretched, bone-creating cells add new bone around the tooth in a process called deposition. This cements the tooth in the new position. It takes much longer to complete, which is why dentists recommend patients wear a retainer at all times during the process to ensure the teeth do not shift.
