TREATMENT
There are two essential ingredients needed to move teeth into proper alignment:

1. Steady gentle pressure.
2. Time.

To achieve this, the Orthodontist attaches braces which generally consists of metal or clear brackets and wires, to produce slight pressure on each tooth. Throughout treatment the Orthodontist will periodically make adjustments to maintain the directional pressure required to continue the movement of the teeth.
