Traditional Braces (Metal or Gold)

For decades, people have used traditional braces—the most well-known orthodontic treatment—to straighten teeth successfully and address bite problems. The brackets and the archwire are the two primary parts of these braces. The archwire is a thin, flexible wire that joins all brackets, which are tiny metal or gold pieces firmly affixed to each tooth.

With the expert care of our Two Board Certified Orthodontists, traditional braces treatment will be personalized to your unique needs. As your treatment progresses, we will adjust the archwire, ensuring that constant pressure gradually shifts your teeth into their correct positions. This personalized approach, combined with traditional braces’ reputation for dependability and efficiency, makes them a suitable choice for individuals of all ages.

Clear Braces

Clear braces are a covert substitute for typical metal braces for people who choose a more understated orthodontic treatment. With tooth-colored brackets, these braces are less evident while yet being just as successful in straightening teeth and fixing bite problems.

Clear braces are gaining popularity among adults who wish to maintain a nicer image while undergoing orthodontic treatment. Their exceptional outcomes and attractive appearance make them a preferred choice for our Plano Top Dental Orthodontics patients.

Braces for Kids

The Value of Getting Orthodontic Care Early

Children should get their first orthodontic assessment by age seven. An early examination is essential because it enables our team at Plano Top Dental Orthodontics to recognize any orthodontic difficulties before they become more problematic. This is the best age for early intervention since the child’s jaw and face bones are still growing, and their permanent teeth are beginning to grow.

During their first appointment, Dr. Alkhoury and Dr. Aswad will thoroughly examine your child’s dental and facial characteristics, including the jaw, bite, and emerging permanent teeth. By doing so, we can identify alignment issues early and create a smooth, healthy smile with a meticulously personalized treatment plan.

Advantages of Braces for Children

Braces are a tried-and-true method of treating children’s misaligned teeth and bite problems. Applying braces is a straightforward procedure that includes gluing brackets to teeth, putting an archwire through them, and making modifications regularly to guarantee ideal alignment.

Several significant advantages can be gained from braces for children:

• Sturdiness Conventional braces are strong and capable of treating various orthodontic problems.
• Cost-Effectiveness Compared to alternative orthodontic solutions like Clear aligners, braces are frequently cheaper.
• No Adjustments Are Necessary Braces stay in place, so unlike detachable aligners, there’s no chance of losing or forgetting to wear them.
• Better Oral Health Early misalignment correction provided by braces helps prevent later, more significant tooth problems.

Teenage Braces: Orthodontic Treatment Personalized for Their Lifestyles

Signs Your Teen May Need Braces

• Misaligned or overlaid teeth
• Large spaces between the teeth
• Teeth that are crowded or missing
• Pronounced under- or overbite
• Trouble speaking, biting, or chewing
• Speaking problems brought on by crooked teeth

If your adolescent shows any of these symptoms, it’s crucial to have them evaluated for orthodontics at Plano Top Dental Orthodontics as soon as possible.

Adult Braces

You Can Always Get the Perfect Smile You Want!
It is not only kids and teenagers who can benefit from orthodontic treatment. Adults make up around 20% of orthodontic patients. Braces can be very beneficial if you’ve always wanted a straighter smile or if you need to treat conditions like bite misalignment or TMJ problems.
At Plano Top Dental, we offer complete orthodontic treatment plans customized to meet each adult patient’s requirements. To ensure that you can comfortably and effectively reach your smiling objectives, we provide a range of alternatives, including transparent and conventional braces.

Benefits of Braces for Adults

Braces can improve your overall dental health and the appearance of your smile. By addressing alignment and bite problems, braces help maintain good oral hygiene and lower the risk of tooth decay and gum disease. Additionally, treating orthodontic concerns early helps stop the development of more serious difficulties later in life.

Braces for Seniors

Crafting Smiles That Shine Bright

Orthodontic treatment has the power to transform lives at any age. Braces help with problems including overcrowding, bite alignment, and tooth spacing, so they benefit seniors who want to enhance their dental health and smile. If left untreated, these problems may worsen and cause jaw discomfort or TMJ disorders that make it impossible to breathe, speak, or even chew. These enhancements improve your smile and make it easier to chew, talk, and practice good oral hygiene, which benefits your general health.

If you’ve always been self-conscious about your smile, orthodontic treatment might be the answer you’ve been looking for. Braces often close gaps between teeth, making a more attractive smile appear.
