For everything from mild crowding to complex bite correction, fixed braces do the heavy lifting. Residents of Coppa View 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.
Fixed Brace Options in Coppa View
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 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 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 Coppa View offer them in both metal and ceramic finishes.
