Braces for Teeth. My child 12 year old.

Braces seem to be the most common solution for straightening your teeth, but there are plenty of other options that can work for you, based on the type of dental issues you are facing. Ceramic braces seemed to be the most popular option, as they were much more aesthetic, but they turned out to be less time-effective than metal braces. While the speed of the process is highly determined by the type of issue you are dealing with, most dentists seem to agree that the clear aligners are the quickest way to straighten your teeth. The most known type of clear aligners is Invisalign which are transparent plastic trays that are attached to the teeth and slowly moves them into the desired place. The patient receives a set of trays that they need to change every two weeks until they reach the final result. Similar to traditional braces, but much more time-effective, self-ligating braces seem to be more and more popular. Treatment is expected to be finished around 6 months earlier than in the case of traditional braces and the patient is required to pay fewer visits to the orthodontist. Lingual braces are another form of treatment that is preferred by people who want a more concealed solution. They are not suitable for all cases and can take longer time for correction than other types of braces. The cost of the treatment depends on the type of dental or orthodontic issue the child is facing and the type of treatment, as mentioned above, that you or the dentist choose for your child's condition.
