Braces Monroe, NY

Braces are an effective treatment option to correct some of the most severe issues with your teeth. Dr. Michael Skrobola, Dr. Jonathan Schlosser and the team at Bracesetters Orthodontics can let you know if braces in Monroe, NY is the right option for you. Since they come in many forms there are many treatment options to choose from.

What are braces?

They are made up of metal brackets that connect through arch-wires and held into place with rubber-bands that are set in the position that you want your teeth to go in. The metal brackets are placed on the front surface of your teeth. Bracesetters Orthodontics offers color brackets where you can change the color of the metal brackets on the surface of your teeth to match your style in a unique fashion. The metal brackets are the anchors for the arch-wires which is the main source of pressure that moves your teeth into the desired position. They can be worn from 6 months to over 3 years depending on the severity of your teeth.

What do they correct?

Braces can help the most severe cases of malocclusion. They can work to turn your teeth and move them upwards or downwards from your upper jaw.

Some cases of malocclusion that can be corrected include:

• Overjet
• Overbite
• Under-bite
• Cross-bite
• Crowded teeth
• Gap teeth/ spacing problems

What option of braces can I choose from?

They come in many forms. There’s more than just the traditional metal that are offered at Bracesetters Orthodontics.

Some braces options include:

• Clear/ ceramic that are made from a ceramic material to match the color of your teeth. The parts are usually larger and more brittle which requires more attention to oral hygiene.
• Self-Ligating that are made from the same material as traditional metal, but they use a specialized clip to hold your teeth in place rather than arch-wires and rubber-bands.
• Invisalign which is a set of clear plastic trays that are invisible, comfortable and removable.

There is no age limit when it comes to wearing braces. It’s recommended that by the age of 7 your child should visit an orthodontist to determine whether or not they’ll need them. About 20 percent of patients with braces are adults. With the many options offered it’s no problem finding the right orthodontic treatment that fits into your lifestyle. Bracesetters Orthodontics have experience treating patients with many kinds of braces in Monroe, NY. They pride themselves with their patient’s satisfaction and work very hard to help their patients achieve their goal of a confident smile while also making their treatment process as comfortable as possible with braces.
