Teeth Straightening with Braces in Boyn Hill

Fixed braces remain one of the most effective and versatile orthodontic treatments available. Residents of Boyn Hill have a genuine choice of brace type, and the best option is the one matched to your clinical needs. Because they act around the clock, they treat cases that removable appliances struggle with. Most cases complete within 12 to 24 months.

Fixed Brace Options in Boyn Hill

Metal braces are the benchmark treatment: small steel brackets, an archwire, and regular adjustments. They suit all case types and are the least expensive private option, as well as the NHS standard.

Ceramic braces are functionally the same as metal with clear or tooth-coloured brackets. Much less conspicuous in photos, slightly pricier, and a little more prone to staining from tea, coffee and coloured foods.

Lingual braces sit on the inner surfaces of the teeth and are completely hidden when you smile or speak. Custom-milled per tooth, they handle a wide range of cases but are the most technically demanding and expensive.

Self-ligating braces replace the elastic ligature with a built-in clip, which lowers friction and can mean fewer appointments. Many practices in Boyn Hill offer them in both metal and ceramic finishes.
