Take Your Child’s Smile To The Next Level With Band-and-Bracket Braces

At Bird Pediatric Dentistry in Charlotte, we understand that a healthy and beautiful smile can make all the difference in your child's confidence. We offer band-and-bracket braces to straighten teeth and correct bite and crowding issues.

How does this orthodontic system work?

Band-and-bracket braces are made of high-quality stainless steel or ceramic brackets attached to a patient’s teeth. A thin archwire is connected to each bracket, applying gentle pressure to the teeth, slowly moving them into their ideal position. This system works with regular adjustments until the desired results are achieved.

What are the benefits of band-and-bracket braces?

This orthodontic system can treat a wide range of misalignment, bite, and crowding issues, and while they take some time for patients to adjust to, they can completely transform smiles while improving oral health in the long run.

Is everyone a candidate for this system?

In most cases, yes! Band-and-bracket braces can be used to treat patients of all ages, though they are most commonly used for children, as their teeth and jawbones are still growing and thus can be more easily adjusted. However, band-and-bracket braces can also be suitable for teenagers and even adults.
