At your first appointment, we will take digital x-rays, photographs of your smile and models of your teeth in preparation for your ceramic braces to be fitted.
At your second appointment we will fit the braces. Comfortably designed, they consist of white or clear ceramic brackets and ligatures (tiny rubber bands) which hold an arch wire in place.
At each orthodontic appointment, your ligatures are changed which adjust the forces needed to align your teeth. Our team will see you every 4-6 weeks for approximately 20 minutes to ensure that your treatment is progressing as planned.
Once your treatment is complete we will provide you with a retainer to ensure your teeth stay in position and you can enjoy your new smile for a lifetime.

Ceramic braces are fixed to the front surface of your teeth and therefore cannot be removed for cleaning. It is therefore important that you brush well. We provide you with a complimentary orthodontic care kit with special interdental brushes to keep your teeth and brace clean.
Some brands of ceramic braces may stain. It is best to avoid tea, coffee, red wine, smoking, curries, etc.
