Types of braces we offer
Absolute Dental offers various types of braces so you can find the best braces for you at a price you can afford:
Metal Braces
Metal braces are traditional braces made with metal brackets, elastics, and wires. They’re attached to your teeth and are noticeable. Patients also need to see their orthodontist regularly to have the wires tightened.
Clear Braces
The ceramics used to make these braces are either clear or match the color of your teeth. Either way, they blend in with your teeth, so they aren’t noticeable and don’t make you self-conscious about your smile.
Invisible Braces
Invisible braces aren’t braces that are fixed to your teeth. They’re plastic braces you can remove when eating or brushing your teeth.
Invisalign creates plastic aligners that work like braces without drawing attention to the appliance you’re wearing. You’ll see your orthodontist for new aligners until your treatments are complete.
You may be focused on how your teeth will look before and after you get braces, but it helps to understand how braces work so you know what you can expect. Braces nudge your teeth into the ideal place. They do this by putting some pressure on your teeth daily until your North Las Vegas orthodontist removes your braces. Putting too much pressure on your teeth can damage your teeth and gums, so braces take up to two years to fix your smile.
How much do braces cost?
Several factors affect the cost of braces, including the severity of your issues and the length of time needed to correct your alignment. The type of braces you choose will also affect the price. Braces can cost over $12,000, although some people can fix their smile for a fraction of that amount.
Absolute Dental understands it’s crucial to offer affordable orthodontic services. We have special offers on braces and affordable monthly payment plans so you can afford the orthodontic treatment you need.
How to brush teeth with braces
Attached braces make it more challenging to brush your teeth. It’s easy for food to get stuck between the braces and your teeth, and the braces make it harder to reach all the places you need to brush. You need to adjust the angle of your toothbrush while brushing to get under the braces from below and above the braces, ensuring you remove debris.
Suppose you opted for Invisalign aligners or invisible braces. In that case, you can remove them and brush your teeth like normal.
How to whiten teeth with braces
If you have traditional or ceramic braces, keeping your teeth clean and white may be challenging. Fortunately, some products can help. Use a whitening toothpaste when you’re brushing to keep your teeth white. You can also use whitening mouthwash to prevent and remove stains.
Can you get braces with missing teeth?
You may have missing and misaligned teeth and wonder whether you need implants before you can get braces. You can get braces first. It’s best to discuss your needs with your orthodontist. They can help you understand which treatment you should prioritize, but waiting until your teeth are aligned can be helpful to ensure you get an implant that fits your new space.
