Fixed Braces
Fixed appliances are the most commonly used braces today, because they allow accurate positioning of the teeth.
The braces are securely fixed onto the teeth and cannot be removed by the patient. We offer various systems ranging from the standard metal brackets to clear or aesthetic brackets, which are placed on the outside surfaces of the teeth.
Fixed braces are available with clear brackets, dramatically reducing the visibility of fixed braces. These are placed on the outside surfaces of the teeth in conjunction with aesthetic wires. This brace is particularly popular with adults, where aesthetics are of the utmost importance.

Removable Braces
Simple treatment may be carried out with a removable appliance (a plate that can be taken out to be cleaned).
Removable braces have delicate wires and springs attached, which move the teeth using gentle pressure. In growing children removable braces are sometimes used to modify the growth of the jaws into a more favourable position.
