used to straighten crowded, crooked, or widely spaced teeth and improve the way the upper and lower jaws fit together. Modern braces use smaller brackets and carefully controlled pressure to guide teeth into healthier, more balanced positions over time.<\/p><p>During treatment, metal brackets are attached to the teeth and connected with a thin orthodontic wire. Regular adjustment appointments allow the orthodontist to monitor progress and make gradual changes to the wire as the teeth move. The DentalCare team also provides guidance on brushing, flossing, and protecting the braces throughout treatment.<\/p><p>Treatment length varies depending on the complexity of the alignment and bite concerns being corrected. Once the braces are removed, a retainer is usually recommended to help maintain the new tooth positions. With consistent appointments and good home care, traditional braces can create a straighter smile and support healthier long-term function.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-2e566d1c elementor-widget elementor-widget-stronghold-heading\" data-id=\"2e566d1c\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"stronghold-heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"stronghold-heading-wrapper-modern\"><div class=\"stronghold-heading\"><div class=\"heading-title \" style=\"\"><h3 class=\"heading-title-element\">Frequently Asked Question<\/h3><\/div><\/div><\/div>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-15b4c295 elementor-widget elementor-widget-stronghold-accordion\" data-id=\"15b4c295\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"stronghold-accordion.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"stronghold-accordion-wrapper-modern\"><div class=\"accordion-main-title\"><h4 class=\"accordion-main-title-element\"><\/h4><\/div><div class=\"accordion-item\"><a class=\"accordion-item-title-area\" href=\"#item909860035\" data-ll=\"collapsed\"><h6 class=\"accordion-item-title\">How do I know which dental treatment I need?<\/h6><\/a><div id=\"item909860035\" class=\"accordion-item-content\">Your dentist will examine your teeth and gums, discuss any symptoms or concerns, and recommend suitable options based on your oral health.
