Is it right for you

Who it suits.

Your first visit answers this properly, with an examination and, where needed, a scan, before you commit to anything.

Usually suits you if

  • Crowded, crooked or overlapping teeth
  • Gaps between teeth
  • Overbite, underbite, crossbite or open bite
  • Children whose jaw growth may need guiding

Tell us first if

  • Active gum disease or untreated decay, which needs care first
  • Allergy to nickel or other metals
  • A sport or musical instrument that may need a mouthguard or extra planning
  • Jaw joint pain or clicking

  4. Regular adjustments

    The wires are changed or tightened step by step to keep the teeth moving as planned.

    Every 4 to 6 weeks

  5. Removal & retainers

    Once the teeth are in place, the braces come off and retainers are given to hold the result.

Options at GIA

Types of braces at GIA

01

Metal braces

Stainless steel brackets and wires. Strong and reliable for a wide range of problems.

Children, teens and most bite corrections
02

Ceramic braces

Tooth-coloured or clear brackets that blend in with the teeth. They need a little more care to avoid staining.

Teens and adults who want braces that show less
03

Self-ligating braces

Brackets with a built-in clip that holds the wire, so no elastic ties are needed. Often easier to keep clean.

Patients who want fewer ties and simpler cleaning

Questions

Common questions.

Answers to be checked by the doctor

What is the right age for braces?

Many children are treated between about 10 and 14, but adults can have braces too. An early check around age 7 helps spot jaw growth problems.

Will braces hurt?

Teeth usually feel sore for a few days after fitting and after adjustments. Soft food and simple painkillers usually help.

What can I not eat with braces?

Avoid hard, sticky and chewy foods such as nuts, toffees, hard sweets and corn on the cob, which can break brackets.

Braces or clear aligners?

Both straighten teeth. Your orthodontist will explain which suits your bite, age and routine at the consultation.
