The treatment
What it is.
Metal braces are the most precise, predictable, and time-tested orthodontic treatment ever developed. For complex bites and significant misalignments, they remain the gold standard. Today's brackets are smaller, smoother, and gentler than the ones you might remember from school.
Best fit
Who this is for.
- Complex cases and significant misalignments
- Children and teenagers (often the best fit)
- Anyone wanting the most predictable outcome at the lowest price
What it gives you
- Most precise control over tooth movement
- Lowest cost orthodontic option
- Coloured elastics — a small expression for kids
- No compliance required
The honest note
More visible than ceramic or aligners. The first three to five days after placement and a day or two after each adjustment are mildly uncomfortable. Some foods (hard, sticky, chewy) need to be avoided — we'll go through the list with you.
The journey
Month by month, no surprises.
The pacing is general — your exact timeline depends on your case. We'll personalise the plan at your consultation.
Month 0
Free consultation. Scans, plan, options.
Month 1
Treatment begins. We bond brackets or fit your first trays.
Month 3
First major movements visible. Adjustment visit.
Month 6
Halfway-feeling moment. Most patients smile more by now.
Final
Removal day. Retainer fitted. We talk about the next year.
Honest answers
The questions patients
actually ask.
If your worry isn't here, ask us in the free consultation — or send a quick WhatsApp.
Will I look weird?
Modern brackets are about half the size of those from a decade ago. Most patients tell us they stopped noticing within a week — and so did everyone else.
Will they hurt?
Mild pressure for the first three to five days. Over-the-counter painkillers help. After that, only the day or two after each monthly adjustment is slightly tender.
Can I eat normally?
Yes, with a list of foods to avoid. We'll walk through it with you — including how to handle restaurants and family events.
Compare

other treatments?
Two adjacent paths worth considering. The right answer often depends on your case — we'll help you decide.
