Traditional braces, also known as fixed braces, are a method used to correct teeth alignment by utilizing brackets and wires to gradually move the teeth to their desired positions. The treatment process of traditional braces can be divided into two types: "external braces" and "internal braces."
After examining your teeth, the orthodontist will proceed to place the dental braces.
Regular follow-up appointments will be scheduled with the orthodontist to monitor progress and make necessary adjustments to the treatment
