Braces from Hickman Orthodontics come in a variety of styles, materials, and colors, which makes life with braces much easier, more comfortable, and even more stylish than in the past. Gone are the days of giant metal brackets and bulky, uncomfortable headgear. Today, you can have braces and smile in style!
Braces Your Way!
Hickman Orthodontics offers a variety of braces, types, and styles to choose from. Some common options include:
- Ceramic braces
- Invisalign® clear aligners
- Traditional metal braces with fun colored elastics
Regardless of whether you choose bracket treatment or aligner treatment, the amount of time it takes to achieve your beautiful smile depends on a few key factors:
- What needs correction — The amount of treatment needed to correct a problem will determine how long the process takes. Different patients react to treatments differently, so it may take one patient only 12 months to complete the treatment, but it may take another 24 months. Treatment times can vary, depending on how quickly your body responds and how much work is needed to give you the show-stopping smile you desire.
- YOU! — Your willingness to use the appliances we give you plays a major role in the length of time it takes to complete your treatment. Always remember to take care of your braces and appliances; this truly will help make your treatment shorter!
Orthodontic treatment is a big part of life for many people your age. While braces may have had a bad reputation in the past, today’s braces make it easy to look good and feel good!
