Braces in Coed Eva

Fixed braces are still the benchmark for predictable, reliable tooth movement. Residents of Coed Eva 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. Treatment length varies with the case, but 12–24 months is the usual range.

Types of Braces Available in Coed Eva

Metal braces use stainless-steel brackets bonded to each tooth and connected by an archwire. They are the most affordable fixed option and handle every level of complexity, and modern brackets are smaller and rounder than older designs.

Ceramic braces work identically to metal but use tooth-coloured or clear brackets, making them far less visible. They cost a little more and need careful cleaning to avoid staining.

Lingual braces are bonded to the tongue-facing surface of the teeth, so they are invisible from the front. They are the most discreet fixed option, cost the most, and need a short speech-adaptation period.

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