For everything from mild crowding to complex bite correction, fixed braces do the heavy lifting.

Their constant, controlled force is why they remain first choice for significant bite problems. Treatment length varies with the case, but 12–24 months is the usual range.

Types of Braces Available in Kings Trading Village

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 swap the metal bracket for a clear or ivory ceramic one, cutting visibility sharply while keeping the same mechanics. Popular with adults and older teens who want discretion without going lingual.

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 use a clip mechanism rather than elastic bands to hold the wire. They are often suggested for crowded cases where reduced friction helps early tooth movement, and are offered by several Kings Trading Village orthodontists.
