What you need to know about braces
Despite the rise of plastic aligners, conventional braces remain a popular choice for straightening teeth.
Advances in technology have produced braces that are:
- More affordable.
- More effective, especially in complex orthodontic cases.
- More discreet.
- More comfortable.
Types of braces
There are two main types of braces – metal and ceramic.
Metal braces
Metal braces are the standard orthodontic treatment and the best method to rectify severe cases of teeth crowding. They’re the most affordable type of braces but also the most conspicuous, although modern braces are less noticeable.
Ceramic braces
Ceramic braces have tooth-coloured or clear ceramic brackets that blend in with your teeth, but they can be prone to staining if you’re not careful. Ceramic braces cost more than metal braces but work faster than plastic aligners.

Braces can address a wide range of dental issues, including:
• Crooked teeth
• Crowded teeth
• Gapped teeth
• Misaligned jaw due to an uneven bite
Braces can also rectify bite problems such as:
• Underbite – when the lower teeth project beyond the upper teeth
• Overbite – upper front teeth overlap lower teeth
• Crossbite – upper teeth bite on the inside of lower teeth
• Open bite – upper and lower teeth fail to make proper contact
Benefits of braces
Benefits of braces
Braces can resolve more complex orthodontic problems – such as severe tooth crowding and significant overbite issues – than newer orthodontic treatments.
Other benefits of braces include:
• Affordability: Braces remain a less expensive option than Invisalign plastic aligners. Metal braces tend to be the most affordable. Invisalign costs more than both metal braces and ceramic braces
• Colour customisation: Bracket bands come in a wide variety of colours. This can make braces a fun form of self-expression, particularly for younger patients
Signs you may need braces
Braces have a high success rate among people of all ages, and they boost self-esteem by eliminating embarrassment about revealing crooked teeth when you smile, laugh or eat.
Signs you may need braces include:
- Teeth that are visibly crooked, gapped or crowded.
- Your upper and lower teeth don’t come together properly.
- Difficulty speaking or eating.
